NCADP Blog > #90mStrong Monday: “The death penalty doesn’t change anyone’s behavior.”

June 30, 2014

Welcome to #90mStrong Mondays. Each week we’ll share a story from one of the 90 million people who opposes the death penalty. Are you one of the #90mstrong? Raise your voice to put an end to the death penalty! Share your story at NCADP.tumblr.com.

I’m a 69 year old grandmother. I have believed for most of my life that killing is wrong. The death penalty doesn’t change anyone’s behavior. We need to help parents raise children with love. We need to spend our money supporting parents, teaching them how to parent so that they will teach children to be kind to others. Hurt people, hurt people. Kill the death penalty because we’re going about it backwards.
