Rejected petition Bring back hanging for people who harm children

Jail time isn't deterring people from abusing and harming children so it's time to bring back hanging. People who sexually abuse, rape, attack or kill children should be hung. Our children are precious.

More details

So many child abusers get off with a warning or a small jail sentence. Bring back the rope.
