Re: Countries with the death penalty
[ QUOTE ]
The U.S. is a member of an interesting club:
The United States, China, Iran and Saudi Arabia account for over 80% of the executions recorded by Amnesty International.
Since 2000, only four countries --the U.S., the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Pakistan and Iran-- are known to have executed juvenile offenders. Further narrowing this list, Pakistan recently abolished the death penalty for juvenile offenders and the DRC has established a moratorium on executions.

OK...now further narrow that list because the United States no longer executes juvenilles.
