Rejected petition Bring back the death sentence for pedophiles

I think everyone agrees paedophiles are disgusting and we need to protect our children from them. You can't change what turns them on. The best way is to get rid of them.

More details

Because I'm sick of seeing them repeat offend and getting light sentences. It's disgusting and they are dangerous individuals.
