Rejected petition Bring back the Death Penalty for Murderers
More details
Our prisons are overflowing, and its all at a cost to us the taxpayer!
If someone has killed, especially someone who has killed a child - or abused a child in any way - and has been proven / found guilty of such, then they should face the death penalty
At the moment, they will simply be put in jail - courtesty of the British Tax Payer! They can then study for degrees, get their meals 3 times a day - and have priveledge to live! When they have taken someone's life , they dont deserve to live - an eye for an eye!
Perhaps if we came down harder on people, it would deter others from committing these crimes
