In what way can a small local group protests against the death penalty?
Troy, you are a completely inspirational human being. I will pray for you until justice is done.
Excellent. I do not 'want to join them'. Instead of spending money executing often innocent people, we should be trying to find out why people do what they do and try to prevent the problems that cause it. It is said that the majority of such crimes is within families, why? What makes children kill? It is horrendous that we torture people and their families by keeping people on death row often for decades. Are we any better than them for allowing it?

View all comments (7 more)A very simple and yet powerful argument for the abolition of the death penalty. I would like to see that broadcast around the world on all television stations and shown the leaders of every country.
I agree with Niall. The death penalty will not make anything right here.
Got to support this one! Waste-ful state-legalised murder of minors often means that adult criminals get away scot-free and tradgedies are dealt out to innocent families.
That's what we have to push all countries to sumbit to.
Absolutely spot on.
We need more celebrities to support Amnesty International and to create more awareness of human rights issues. Thank you, Jeremy.
They may have crossed the line, but do we really want to join them? Nicely put. Made me think about how I act is more important than how 'they' have acted. A must see.
