Rejected petition Free Alexander Blackman

More details

This petition is to free marine Alexander Blackman from the prison sentence that has been handed down of a minimum of 10 years for killing an enemy of the Britain, this is an absolute disgrace and should be reversed immediately. Our armed forces are put in stressful situations sometimes things go wrong! If in a Whitehall department if somebody did something that was deemed stressful and got it wrong we would probably pay the individual compensation not jail them, fed up with our troops getting killed and having to obey rules but enemy doing what they want and then they have human rights! Sign if you agree!
