Rejected petition Keep our Justice System free from Capital Punishment

More details

The government must keep our justice system free from the pitfalls and in-humanitarian possibility of allowing the death penalty to become part of the country's justice system again. As a strong western democracy, we cannot be hampered by such an obviously easy solution to the problems that it would allegedly address.
