    I've been looking for one. a lot of the stores around here are sold out, which I guess is good, but sad for people who want to buy one.

    oh... try this: http://www.princetonreview.com/law/testprep/testprep.asp?TPRPAGE=81&TYPE=LSAT take the LSAT practice exam. Its actually kind of fun, full of logic puzzles. It predicted what I scored on the actual LSAT within 2 points, as well, which was kinda interesting.

    hmm... video games that use logic, like Tetris? or maybe even Everquest. read a book. write a story.

    its pretty much a direct quote from the court's statement about their ruling. I paraphrased a bit for length.

    I was referring to the United States as a whole, not just the federal government. guess I should've been more specific. What I meant was that right now, there's no state or federal law that says "you kill someone else, you die."
  9. Nightingale
    how do you do that?
  10. Nightingale

    is it possible to ignore a user so their posts don't even show up when you're logged in? I know you can block PMs, but I'm not sure if you can block regular messages.

    Thanks for the link! I just sent a fax to the governor of Alabama opposing the execution.

    condoms? even if you're not planning on using them, you can always pass them along to a friend who's found a hookup.

    from what I read, it appears to be at the time of sentencing, as well as at the time the sentence is going to be carried out.

    he's mentally retarded. therefore, he's covered under Atkins (2002).
  16. Nightingale
    maybe in the time of Hammurabi. not according to the laws of the United States.
  17. Nightingale
    in Atkins v. Virginia, 122S.Ct.2242 (June 20, 2002), the supreme court ruled that the execution of any individual with mental retardation violates the 8th amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. The court concluded that the execution of persons with mental retardation would not "measurably contribute" to either deterrence or retribution in the criminal justice system. "Construing and applying the eighth amendment in the light of our evolving standards of decency, we therefore conclude that such punishment is excessive and that the Constitution places a substantive restriction on the State's power to take the life of a mentally retarded offender."

    anyone who is mildly retarded and suffering from dimentia deserves at least to have the case evaluated.
