What the petition asks
A minimum prison sentence of 10 years should be given to any peadofile under any circumstances. 1,2,3,4 years isnt enough for ruining and violating a childs life.
After seeing a prison sentence of 4 years given to a man for molestering a child, its about time british citizens made the streets of our country safer for children, 4 years doesnt compare to the rest of a life ruined of an innocent child. Lets make a change.
