Prison is the best punishment for criminals. Do you agree or disagree?
Today, people will commit different atrocities. In order to maintain law and order in the society, judiciary gives out appropriate punishment. The prompt states that the best way to punish offenders is by remanding them in prison.
This
essay will discuss why I completely disagree with Linking Words
this
statement and, Linking Words
also
provide accompanying examples.
Admittedly, imprisonment might be the best form of punishment for some criminals. Linking Words
For instance
, forgery or stealing. The individual is remanded for a given period of time during which reformation programs are organised. Linking Words
This
is done because it is believed that the individual's stay in prison might reform Linking Words
such
an individual and Linking Words
consequently
become a better version of himself or herself. Linking Words
Thus
, in Linking Words
this
case, I would agree that imprisonment is appropriate.
Linking Words
However
, there are situations in which the individuals involved are regarded as criminals by the law, but all Linking Words
that is
needed to turn the persons around is some months of community service. Linking Words
In addition
, the prison might be too harsh for Linking Words
such
a person and remanding them will only make them worse. Linking Words
On the other hand
, imprisonment might be too lenient for some other crimes. Linking Words
For example
, a serial killer on the loose. There is no reforming Linking Words
such
person, Linking Words
therefore
, the essence of sending Linking Words
this
person to a place where reformation can be achieved would be useless. Linking Words
Instead
, he/she comes out to continue the crime. Linking Words
Hence
, in cases like Linking Words
this
, spending some time locked up is not enough.
In conclusion, I absolutely disagree that every criminal deserves to the remanded. While some deserve it, others deserve less or more punishment.Linking Words
