Rejected petition Bring back the death penalty for murderers

More details

This is a petition for bringing back the death penalty for murderers. It says in the bible an eye for an eye so I feel that if someone take a life then they should have their life taken from them. This country is getting out of hand with the amount of murders that are taking place in today's society. Please sign the petition to show your support.
