Abolish Capital Punishment

The Issue

"An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind."

No one ever deserves the fate of losing their life against their will. For the government to be a part of the cause of these lost lives is not a display of what the United States supposedly stands for. Capital Punishment is barbaric and medieval, and is, all too often, used against innocent people, regardless of how "humane" the process is.

My hope is to reach out to the government in an attempt to propose to amend the laws for this type of punishment.
