I'm doing GCSE history and I thought this was useful information. I don't know that much about it but it's a start. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.213.252.242 (talk • contribs) 18:52 (UTC), 20 April 2005
- Thanks, useful history info. Nasty stuff though! --J. Atkins (talk | contribs) 19:36, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
This is a really inaccurate and incomplete argument. It does not take into account the fact that most people were not put to death for these crimes due to extensive use of pardons. The sporadic use of the death penalty was designed to scare people into behaving but it wasn't as harsh as this article suggests. The fact that the only reference used is the extremely biased Amnesty probably accounts for this. Xlittlemissparanoidx 08:49, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
