From Justice Kennedy's ruling that executing individuals under the age of 18 is unconstitutional:
"When a juvenile offender commits a heinous crime, the state can exact forfeiture of some of the most basic liberties, but the state cannot extinguish his life and his potential to attain a mature understanding of his own humanity."
"A mature understanding of his own humanity"? What the hell does that mean. So when the 17-year old gang banger caps a little girl on the street corner, he gets to live and come to a mature understanding of his own humanity while the little girl doesn't. Unbelievable.
