death penality is best way to control and reduce the crime rate to what extent do you agree ?
In
this
modern law era, some people argue that the death punishment
is the greatest way to handle and reduce the number of criminal activities. However
, others argue that it is contrary to the principle of human rights
. I totally agree with the second opinion because there is no guarantee that the rate of criminals
will decrease if the penalty is applied and other reasons will explain more in this
essay.
Firstly
, I think that taking someone's life is not the job of the government. Moreover
, if the reason to apply the punishment
is to control and reduce the crime rates. Government, as the policy maker has to rethink before enforcing the law by providing other data that prove that the rates of people who commit crimes will decrease. Instead
of killing criminals
, the government should try to find another type of penalty. For instance
, criminals
should be imprisoned on isolated islands or areas where they cannot interact with the social community.
Secondly
, killing others is actually contrary to the agreements of human rights
. In this
case, some human rights
activists will complain about that regulations because they believe that the death penalty cannot reduce the number of criminals
. Furthermore
, if we use the perspective of religion, we cannot find that there is no one religion that agrees that death punishment
is legal.
In conclusion, In my point of view, I strongly believe that this
kind of punishment
is not appropriate to apply because it will deprive someone's human rights
and also
it will get more protests from most activists that put more attention on the law.Submitted by rahmad.iriyandi on
