Important:
This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Re-introduce the death penalty for crimes against society.
More details
Every day we read about criminal activities which have an adverse effect upon the wider population - today I read about a Scotsman who stole an ambulance car while the paramedic was treating a patient on the roadside - that man deserves nothing less than a death penalty for the effect such actions have upon others. We need to be given the opportunity to vote on whether or not we should be able to protect ourselves by putting such criminals to death to prevent their further damage to us.
