Bill: Abolishing the Death Penalty
Details
Submitted by[?]: Nrljogadé Prta
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 4356
Description[?]:
Capital punishment is a barbaric and outdated practice that has no place in the 44th century. The death penalty does not work as deterrent, is of questionable morality, and disproportionately targets religious and ethnic minorities while making martyrs of Apostolic Army terrorists. The sooner we end this practice the faster will Barmenistan progress and modernize. Temrmai Nrlshehré |
