Some people argue capital punishment is a brutal decision and should be abolished. Do you agree or disagree?

Death

sentence has been an active method of punishment for many decades which has been a popular discussion topic among the public as a cruel way of punishment.

Although

most individuals protest that

this

needs to be withdrawn quickly, some people still argue that it is a way to minimise future occurrences of

such

crimes.

This

essay will agree why the

death

sentence should be in place to make a better society for every one of us.

Firstly

, the decision to take the life of another person is not ethically recommended for anybody who has to take the decision.

For example

, the law for

death

sentence was silent for many years in Sri Lanka and it was brought back

last

year to punish a notorious criminal who wouldn't stop any of the crimes even after years of imprisonment. The question was if the convict was really an innocent who was framed due to less evidence blinding the eye of the law. Many human rights societies raised against it to stop

this

kind of retribution

consequently

bringing

this

decision to an end.

Secondly

, having the

death

penalty

also

has a substantial outcome which prevents other people from committing the same crime over again. In fact, after the execution of a serial killer, studies have shown that the rate of murder happens has drastically decreased.

For example

, India now has lower rape cases after the execution of two rapists which was broadcasted live on public television. Having

this

kind of law is necessary to keep society in a better place. To conclude,

although

some individuals are against capital punishment, it is necessary to have it in place to reduce and have control over the crime rate in the country. It is the government's responsibility to maintain and spread awareness of the consequences of

this

kind of an inhuman act.
