This cat approves of Sweden.
On November 23, 1910, Johan Alfred Andersson Ander, sentenced to death for a murder he committed during the course of a robbery, was executed at the Långholmen prison in Stockholm. No other executions have taken place in Sweden since then.
More than two-thirds of the countries of the world have abolished the death penalty in law or in practice. While 58 countries retained the death penalty in 2009, most did not use it. The only European country that still has the capital punishment is Belarus. The USA is the only country in the Americas to carry out executions (with 54 of them in 2009).
Hear that, America? Sweden had 100 years without executions. You can’t even make it one year (probably not even a month).
