Might have missed something, but my quick check of the Constitution says in Article 3, Section 3, Clause 2 that:...."but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person Attainted."<br /><br />So its possible, I think, as long as it is done all over the place. We have a ban against "Cruel AND Unusual Punishment". Remember when there was a little uproar a few years back when it was discovered that Delaware still had Flogging on the Books? Now if EVERY State used Flogging, then it would "Cruel", but NOT "Unusual."<br /><br />Which is why the Anti-Death Penalty Crowd keeps hoping that if less than 25 States have the Death Penalty, then it can be wiped from the Books nationwide.Bubblehead Les.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00730873284089958084noreply@blogger.com
