The death penalty is the best way to control and reduce serious crime. To what extent do you agree?

#death #penalty #control #crime
It is often suggested that the best way to reduce serious
crime
 is the
death
penalty
.
However
, I totally disagree with
this
 notion because all crimes do not happen with intention so we can easily reduce serious
crime
 in
spite
 of applying
this
 and
this
 notion might affect the entire families and end up with another
crime
.
Firstly
, all crimes are not happening with pre-planned or well-planned ideas. Being in poverty, some people are committed to the crimes. To
support
this
, some people cannot able to pay their children's education fees or cannot afford to manage their personal loans. By doing criminal activities, they can earn huge money and they can solve their financial problems.
Furthermore
, unemployment
also
 another reason.
This
 drives them involved in criminal activities.
Thus
, the government should not be punished for several-
death
penalty
 simply because of the reason of poverty or unemployment reason, people ended up with
crime
. In
spite
 of applying
this
death
penalty
 to reduce serious
crime
, the government can prompt a job opportunity to stop some criminal activities.
Secondly
, the
Death
penalty
 not only affect that person, but
also
 their whole families. If a
crime
 person gets the
death
penalty
, their family will end up with no financial
support
. There might be possibilities for children to involve in
crime
 to
support
 their families after their family members got killed by
death
penalty
 rules.
Consequently
, it will increase the
crime
 cases in
spite
 of decline it.
For instance
, the latest research conducted by the Human Care Management stated that even though there was a more than 100
death
penalty
 applied in Pakistan, there are still
crime
 cases happening. In conclusion, I totally disagree about the statement.
This
 is because all crimes are not happening with any proper intention so we can easily reduce serious
crime
 by prompting other laws in
spite
 of applying those notions and those ideas might affect the entire families and children of these families end up with another
crime
 to
support
 their families.
