[Abandoned] Ban On Death Penalty

Postby New Gren Artle » Tue Sep 19, 2017 12:34 pm

The World Assembly;

Understands why nations may want to issue a death penalty.

Sympathizes with the families of victims killed in violet crimes.

However, this act believes nobody, not even the worst criminals, shall be killed at the hands of the government. It is inhumane, unconstitutional and wrong.

No member nations shall;

1. Have a death penalty in place.

2. Encourage the death penalty.

Every death penalty is banned under this act, including but not limited to;

a. Lethal injection

b. Electric chair

This act does not discourage life sentences in any way.

Clarifying, the intentions of this act is not to benefit criminals, but to uphold the human rights of these criminals. No matter what crime they commit, they shall not be killed.

Furthermore, all member nations shall not create laws allowing death penalties, and shall eliminate the death penalty if it already exists.

((OOC: Seriously, the 'throw idea against the wall and see what sticks' approach to proposals does not work here. Please just pick one and stick with it instead of just making more and more.

Staying OOC because you don't seem to acknowledge things as being IC:

This proposal has been tried before and didn't work. Not only because people are very protective of their nation's ability to perform executions, but because it's a direct contradiction of a pre-existing resolution, GAR #373: Crime and Punishment, which explicitely gives nations the ability to have the death penalty but also puts substantial limitations on it.))
Trust Factbooks, not stats.

The Ambassador of Essu Beti is Iksana Gayan and he's an elf. He’s irritable and a damn troll and everything he says is IC only. I would never be so tactless OOC.

National News Radio: A large-scale infrastructure project will soon be underway. During this time, for safety reasons, the island will be closed to tourists and foreign news agents. We do expect a minor loss in revenue due to this, but this will be greatly offset by both the long and short-term benefits of the infrastructure project. If your job is negatively impacted by the island closure, please send a letter or verbal message via courier to the Council so that we can add you to the list of beneficiaries of foreign aid.

OOC:Gren, you need to stop tossing out proposals after zero research. You're starting to come dangerously close to Spamming the forum. Something like 5 of the active threads on the page are yours, and at least 4 are illegal.

His Worshipfulness, the Most Unscrupulous, Plainly Deceitful, Dissembling, Strategicly Calculating Lord GA Secretariat, Authority on All Existence, Arbiter of Right, Toxic Globalist Dog, Dark Psychic Vampire, and Chief Populist Elitist!
Separatist Peoples should RESIGN!
