The family of the victim will be left utterly devastated whether or not
the person responsible loses their life.
Some people claim its a deterrent and greatly reduces the rate of
violent crime. However, its extremely difficult to prove one way or the
other. Im not sure of the exact figures but its highly doubtful that
capital punishment prevents more crimes than increased policing and gun
control.
It certainly prevents reoffending but surely thats what rehabilitation os
for too.
Closure and vindication. The death penalty completely removes the
opportunity for the victims family to talk to the criminal and get answers.
I think its utterly wrong to take another life whatever the reason.
It completely goes against the Christian values of compassion and
forgiveness.
The justice system isnt totally flawless. Crime investigation is
increasingly sophisticated but mistakes still happen.
Its highly doubtful that the death sentence saves any money in the long
run.
We seriously need to ask ourselves how the treatment of criminals
reflects on us. If we turn a blind eye to, what is effectively, state
sanctioned murder, what else will we allow?
Theres increasingly apparent that some people suffer from mental
illness. It would be quite unfair to put them to death for their crimes
they werent even aware of.
