Blog 3 part 1
The three most convincing arguments in Capital Punishment is that the death penalty is a morally acceptable punishment for murder. In fact, it is morally wrong not to execute the murderer because this is the only acceptable punishment. Another argument for this is that the death penalty is done for murder, not killing. If you kill somebody from self defense you wouldn't get charged the death penalty. Also, just sending a murderer to jail wont be a good enough punishment for somebody who has murdered. People believe that its wrong, but we must execute murders to show people that killing is wrong. Although their is many reasons for Capital Punishment, there is even more reasons against it. For example, people claim we wouldn't rape a rapist, so why kill a murderer? Also, people say that if a person is executed, and later they find the evidence to prove he is innocent, their is nothing we can do anymore. Another reason against the death penalty is it cannot be separated from human rights.
