Question

Countries should not use the death penalty.

Agree

Disagree


Explain why you voted the way you did.

Answer 1

I agree. The death penalty is a cruel or usual punishment. I feel like maybe life in prison should be given depending on what crime the person has committed. I feel like if they did a serious crime like a mass murder I feel like it should be used but something simply as stealing it shouldn't be used at all. (Different countries give death penalty for different reasons) You shouldn't be given death for something like stealing.

Answer 2

I disagree

Step-by-step explanation:

I think that countries should use the death penalty. Naturally the idea of a life for a life is as old as time itself, the idea that a man can kill another and not have the same done for him does not seem like justice. In fact logically it would make sence to have a killer put to death to prevent any chance of the convict escaping and hurting society more. Not only that but it would let the families have closure knowing that the person whom did wrong to their loved one can no longer hurt anyone else.
