Rejected petition Reinstate the death penalty for 100% proven paedophiles, rapists and murderers.

Rejected on

I feel that in our modern society, our laws have become too lenient and give too much protection to paedophiles, rapists and murderers. If the death penalty were to be reinstated for 100% proven paedophiles, rapists and murderers, we would be on the right path to cleaning up our streets.

This would ultimately help us on the way to making our country a safer place for decent, law abiding citizens who deserve the right to have no harm come to them or their children.
