News Release by UncleYap: Death Penalty: Taiwan totally opposite of Singapore's situation

I must highlight this irony. Taiwanese Minister of Law aka 法务部长王清风， is currently willing to take herself to hell 下地狱, so to speak, to fight for Abolishment of Death Penalty, as the angry peasants and policemen are protesting against him, and they really want their Minister of Law to be in hell. These roles are entirely switched in Singapore as famiLEE LEEgime ministers are the ones wanting to impose Death Penalty, and there are groups of peasants protesting and seeking the abolishment of it.

There is now a petitioning campaign against Taiwanese Minister of Law by Taiwanese Peasants, and Netizens, they want to each write in a letter against this minister, to have to removed from office. The policemen demanded minister Wang to donate her SALARIES to feed those convicts on the death row.

There is also a group of families of victims of crimes, who suffered from the crimes committed by the convicts on death row. They are outraged by the minister. They are also campaigning against the minister who wants to abolish death penalty.

Currently there are some notorious convicts awaiting to be executed, and by Taiwanese law that meant Firing Squad or Gun Shot Executions. This is the reason that sparked on this conflict.

堅持廢除死刑　網友：1人1信送王清峰下地獄

更新日期:2010/03/11 00:07 政治中心／綜合報導

法務部長王清峰發表一篇名為《理性與寬恕》的文章，強調為了確保生命權，任內絕對不會執行死刑，甚至「願意為死刑犯下地獄」。不過，這番看似充滿「人道理念」的言論，卻讓不少網友感到相當憤怒，痛批王清峰保障死囚的生命權，「卻枉顧被害人的生命」，要大家發起「一人一信送王清峰下地獄」的活動，叫王清峰趕快「下台」。
為了表達廢除死刑的立場，王清峰在《理性與寬恕》文章中指出，「死刑是最危險的刑罰，從事審判的是人不是神」，強調「殺人償命」只是造成另一個家庭陷入永遠無法啟口的傷痛，並不會使這個社會更好，要受害家屬用寬恕的力量，來洗淨復仇的怨恨。
王清峰還在文中強調，她寧可下台，也絕對不會在任內簽署任何一件死刑執行命令，還說如果死刑犯如果有改過自新的機會，甚至「願意為他們下地獄」。
不過，王清峰這番充滿「人道主義」的言論，卻引起網友的憤怒，有人痛批王清峰根本就是「假道學」、「偽善」，愛護死刑犯的生命權，卻枉顧被害者的性命，要她快點「滾下台」，要不然要發起「一人一信送王清峰下地獄」的活動。
還有網友痛批，王清峰願意給死刑犯改過自新的機會，「那又有誰來給受害者活著的機會」，認為她沒有想過受害者與家屬的心情，還佔著法務部長的職務，領納稅人的薪水，實在有夠差勁。
