Apply the charge of attempted Murder to kicking or stamping on any person's head

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

There are worrying amount of video clips being shared on social media demonstrating brutal attacks about the head to include kicking stamping and punching. This must not be normalized and must be condemned as barbaric and criminal behaviour. Recently savage attacks on other girls by girls are not on

Facebook twitter and youtube often contain this upsetting and criminal content, and is a double edge sword as it often means the perpetrators are identified and tracked down

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because it's about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.

The decision to charge someone with an offence is made by the Crown Prosecution Service, which is independent of the UK Government or Parliament.
