Should Kevin Johnson's 19 year old daughter be allowed to attend his execution?

[llorando]

For those who don't know, Missouri law prohibits anyone under 21 from attending executions.

Yes

No

I live in Missouri.
As long as she is a legal adult of age 18, I would consider her as being permitted to attend something like that.
HOWEVER, in reality, something like that should not be seen by a young person - especially the daughter of the condemned. A young person often has insufficient impulse and emotional control. It is also conceivable that the daughter would be motivated for revenge.
Nonetheless, I voted Yes.

Not if it's against the law. You can certainly argue it's an archaic law, but so is the law that allows state executions.
