THE DEATH PENALTY MUST BE ABOLISHED


THE DEATH PENALTY MUST BE ABOLISHED
The Issue
The state of Georgia shamefully executed Troy Davis on September 21, 2011 despite serious doubts about his guilt.
But Not In My Name.
While a majority of the world – more than 65% of all countries – has abolished the death penalty in law or practice, the United States remains one of the top countries responsible for executing people.
Not In My Name.
Officials continue to allow this deeply-flawed, extremely arbitrary and severely-biased (both economically and racially) system to run rampant without checks, balances or concern for moral decency.
Not In My Name.
Guilty or innocent every person is a human being with human rights. Executions are always wrong.
I won't stand for it.
THE DEATH PENALTY MUST BE ABOLISHED. I take this pledge because human rights and human lives are on the line.
