Rejected petition Bring back the death penalty for rapists and pedophiles.

Bring back the death penalty for pedophiles and rapists. Statistically they are more likely to commit the same type of crime again after being released. We need to protect our children, men and women against these crimes.

More details

The justice system is not hard enough on these sort of people. They have their time in prison, get released then do it all over again. Our people need protected. The death penalty such as the lethal injection will do this.
