“The death penalty is an inhumane and dangerous practice that serves no real purpose. There will never be a death penalty in Saxenheim.”

“The cabinet cannot support such a bill and is actually appalled by such a brutal, and illiberal, proposal. Not only is capital punishment inhuman and ineffective in deterring murders, but it's also been banned by our Constitution: even if we were to pass this statute, it'd be easily repealed.”
