this ruling is a mistake, treating juvenile murderers differently, I see no reason why the death penalty shouldn't apply to them if it applies to adults. It's still up to the judge and jury in sentencing to pass these penalties. Either make the death penalty apply to all or none, not this crap.
So I guess if the two kids from columbine didn't commit suicide, no one would care that they would be protected from getting the death penalty?

Uh, we treat juveniles differently in many, many situations. Children under 18 can't vote, etc. Why should the death penalty be any different?
