Rejected petition Bring back Capital punishment

More details

For some time now this country has been far too soft on criminals, especially the criminals that commit murder, with no regard of the effects it will have not only on the person they have murdered but also of the ripple effect it causes to the family and friend of the said victim. Due to how prisons are run in the country, criminals have nothing to fear from our justice system.
