I want to hear some opinions. Is the death penalty appropriate? Or should it be banned? I've encountered some arguments recently concerning this topic. What are your thoughts?
My opinion varies. It should be Banned- Even if you were a murderer who killed many people, You shouldn't die. You are running from the punishment of getting locked up in jail and rotting away. You should be in jail, and be a man facing your punishment with all of the weight of those lives you took. Also, Death doesn't solve anything. The families victims will be in trauma, but death won't fix anything to be honest. Death Penalty, is also cruel. Once again, "Death doesn't solve anything". Even if you kill all the murderers etc, It won't change the fact there is insane people in this world. EDIT: There was been so many young people who were executed. That is too extreme if you ask me and It's wrong, & I'm literaly getting grossed out. Shouldn't be banned- The Death Penalty should only be used for terrorists.
I don't think it should be banned, but only used in extreme cases where a person has done a gosh awful thing.
