Without capital punishment (the death penalty) our lives are less secure and crimes of violence increase. Capital punishment is essential to control violence in society. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

have actually differed about it. I agree with the idea that government should retain the

in their law.
First
of all, capital

curbs the crime rate in society because the purpose of the
