Oops, Shannen, Ramesh, Jonathan, did I say something?

Do I think that the legal definition of what constitutes ‘cruel and unusual’ punishment can change over time? Yes. Do I think that the notion that a bright, shining line can always be drawn between ‘law’ and ‘policy’ is an illusion? Yes. Am I standing in the Corner’s corner? Yes. Am I asking General Cornwallis for advice as to what to do next? Yes.
