So, the in the week following a rape, you would would make it illegal for a woman to take RU480?

Forgive the nitpicking, but that's RU-486, as in "Are you for 86?" It appears you're for 86-ing small children via a torturous death if they were conceived during a crime.

I guess you don't see it as much of an imposition to be forced to carry around a rapists baby for 9 months.

I think I made it clear that it's an imposition in my earlier post. It's a very great imposition, one that is in fact, criminal. and that leads me to the most important point here. The rapist is the one who deserves to pay for the act, not the child. If the child is killed, the child is paying for the crime. Since when does a victim going through a tough time mean she gets to murder somebody connected to the case? Since when does any action done or emotion felt by an adult justify killing a small child?

Lastly, would you consider abortion methods cruel and unusual punishment if used as execution methods for an adult criminal? If not, why not? If so, why should an innocent child be on the receiving end?

You leave out the rape victim in your calculations. What if my 13 year old daughter was raped, you would rather see her suffer for 9 months of pregnacy (the rapists kid) and then deal with the ramifications of that child for life. That is a decision that is not yours to make. That is between the rape victim and her god.

My lack of support for laws does not equal support for the procedure.
