Supreme Court to Kids: It's Okay to Kill

Less than 24 hours after the U.S. Supreme Court banned the death penalty for juveniles under age 18, a teenager in Tennessee shot his female school bus driver dead, in front of 20 other students, apparently because she did something the day before to make him angry.

The message is clear, kids, shoot away! You will not be held culpable for your actions.

That is the ultimate message the U.S. Supreme Court sent to America's youth, when it banned the juvenile death penalty. Apparently, some got the news quickly. Fortunately, those who would probably be the most dangerous to society, are playing video games, rather than watching news channels or reading anything.

But the message will get to them eventually.

When a 15-year-old kid, who is described by his rural Cumberland City neighbors as having a good relationship with his loving parents, thinks that it's okay to step on a crowded bus and open fire on the woman who has been driving him to school for the past two years, we have a problem.

What we need is an Attorney General and a Governor who will stand up to the Supreme Court and say, "Your efforts to limit how the state of Kansas shall administer its justice constitutes an effort to establish a religion, violating the First Amendment, by imposing a secular value system, in direct opposition to, and to the detriment of, the collective moral beliefs of its citizens, regardless of which religion they practice."

"The execution of Christopher Simmons shall proceed as scheduled."
