HI Ron,

I gave examples of how the law differs depending upon the age of the
person.  It computes exactly!  Your position was that the law should be
the same no matter what the age of the person.  It is the law that
imposes the death penalty and the system of justice is what carries out
the law.  Your position is not supporte by precedent in many situations
as I've pointed out.  Translated, your position does not compute. :)  But
take heart, there are plenty of adults executed so your apparent glee in
reading about them will not be diminished. <G>

Bill
