Description[?]:
| This bill aims to remove the death penalty in the Alorian justice system, which has always been one of the causes of the GPA. As the government of the people, it is quite cruel if we continue to impose the death penalty in our nation. The death penalty is not very effective in bringing out justice since it has the possibility of executing the wrong person. It also deprives people of the chance to change for the better. Everyone has a right to life, and as the government of Aloria we have the responsibility to respect that right no matter who they are. EVERY HUMAN HAS A LIFE. RESPECT LIFE. GIVE CRIMINALS A CHANCE TO REFORM. PROTECT THE INNOCENT FROM BEING EXECUTED. BECAUSE IF WE KILL, WE CANNOT UNDO IT. |
