Re: Executed for being Gay, in the USA
You make a fair and valid point with regard to the actuality of the death penalty in South Dakota, so it will be interesting to see if, on this occasion, the case of Rhines bucks the trend. It seems to me the important point is the extent to which judgements are being made that are based, not on law or the Constitution, but religious views, even when these conflict -the Christian demand for mercy colliding with the view of some Christians that homosexuality is sinful. If there were a true separation of politics from religion, the moral judgement of a man's sexual preference would not be relevant in deciding the sentence for the crime.
