death penalty

First of all, Death Penalty sends the wrong message: why kill people who kill people to show killing is wrong. Yes, we want to make sure there is accountability for crime and an effective deterrent in place; however, the death penalty has a message of \"You killed one of us, so we'll kill you\". The state is actually using a murder to punish someone who committed a murder. Does that make sense?

Second, with the growth of knowledge, we can easily find that the death penalty can not be an effective deterrent for serious crimes. Stephen Nathanson, the author of “An Eye for an Eye” said, “Mountain climbers risk their lives for thrill and adventure; cigarette smokers risk their lives for pleasure; speeding drivers risk their lives in order to get to their destinations a bit faster.” The same goes with criminals. If a criminal tends to kill somebody, He just lost his reason , Nothing can stop him ,even the death penalty.

Furthermore,financial costs to taxpayers of capital punishment is 2-5 times more than that of keeping someone in prison for life.

问题四:If you killed someone, do you want to have a second chance to repay community?

Exist: we don't think the abolition of the death penalty is the

development of human civilization.Those who make mistakes must pay

the price, so that our society can be in order .Why should a murderer deserve to breathe the air? Why should we pay our money to keep them that way?

I agree about the financial burdens. It has been proven that it is cheaper to sentence a criminal to life in prison than to the death penalty.

Conclusion: make a small summary statement. Before I go any

further,please let me spell out once again what my position is.we insist that death penalty should not be applied .

In real life , there are still very serious crimes of endangering national security , endanger public safety, civil rights violations , undermine social order . The existence of the death penalty system is conducive（有益于） to crack down（镇压） and punish these crimes , thus strongly on major interests of the state and the people be protected .

The existence of the death penalty system is also conducive to achieving the purpose of punishment . For those who commit the most heinous criminals of various types , and only apply the death penalty ( including the reprieve ) , so that he can not or dare not crime , special precautions so as to achieve the purpose of punishment .

First, the use of life imprisonment will bring enormous pressure to our

country’s financial costs. Countries have to use taxpayers’ money for basic necessities of prisoners. furthermore, China is a resource- poor country. second,in fact,life imprisonment is more cruel than death penalty. You say the death penalty is inhumane, but being imprisoned for life lets the criminals live without hope, isn't it a kind of inhuman?In the view of personal point,death penalty is inhuman than life imprisonment ,but,in the view of country life imprisonment is inhuman ,don’t you think the country benefit is more important than personal

benefit?
