Rejected petition Anyone caught with a knife 25 years in prison, commit murder 100 years to life

I'm a 27 year old from east London who is surrounded by daily crimes and murders, the country needs to take higher action on such crimes as rape, murder, animal abuse. The gallows was the only thing that kept people at check, percentages of crime has gone up because punishment is to low.

More details

Knife crime and any sort of murder the punishment is not high enough, people who commit rape, murder or animal abuse there imprisonment is not high enough. People who lose loved ones wont ever get the chance to see there loved ones alife again so why should the people who commit crimes deserve a short sentence. And get the chance to come out of prison and either enjoy the rest of what they have left life wise, or go and commit another crime.
