Death+Penalty+-+Kucinich

="Of the twelve states without the death penalty, ten have murder rates below the national average."=



Dennis Kucinich does not support the death penalty and is completely against it.

//"Morally, I simply do not believe that we as human beings have the right to 'play God' and take a human life – especially since our human judgments are fallible and often wrong. My position on the death penalty is derived from my moral and spiritual convictions."//

He introduced legislation to abolish the death penalty. The Federal Death Penalty Abolition Act of 2005 is currently co-sponsered by 39 members of Congress. They will put a halt to executions as well as get rid of the death penalty in all supporting states. There will no longer be a death penalty for any violation of federal law to any degree if the act passes.
