User talk:Nightstallion/death penalty
Headline text
[edit]I've always been interested in death penalty and i visit very frequently an italian site about that. The site is www.nessunotocchicaino.it and is avalaible in various languages. It is costantly up to date about official news on the state of death penalty in every single country. So i mark you, Nightstallion, some news. Bolivia is a complete abolitionist country, like Tajikistan and Kirghizistan, which have abolished death penalty in 2006 and 2007 respectively. Sorry for my very bad english.

[edit]Isn't that legal but not in use in there? --PaxEquilibrium 22:26, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- Nope, it's not legal, because the ratification of the relevant protocol by the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina forbids its use. The case is similar to Germany: in one state (I believe it was Hesse), the death penalty was never formally outlawed in the state constitution, but this is irrelevant due to the fact that federal law forbids it. (They'd have changed the state constitution by now, but -- they're afraid the population won't want to abolish it...) —Nightstallion 14:02, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
