The United States Supreme Court has ruled that executing a man who rapes a child is unconstitutional. They believe that the “cruel and unusual” clause of the Constitution forbids such penalties because in relationship to the crime, the punishment would be disproportionate.

I agree that the punishment is disproportionate. Death is too lenient. Drawn and quartered comes closer to parity.
