What is it?

Capital punishment or the death penalty, is the execution of a person by judicial process as a punishment for an offense. Crimes that can result in a death penalty are known as capital crimes or capital offences.

Ther are multiple points of view available for this topic. Some beleive that capital punishment can and will root out the evil in the world. The killers and the rapists are no more, those who abuse the world are gone and those who truly cherish life and treat others with dignity and respect deserve to live amongst others.

Another widely shared opinion is agaisnt. The idea that the point of our evolution was to make a move away fromt he barbaric society in which we used to be. Good ethics and morals tell us not to kill and that it is not humane.

What are your thoughts?
