some people believe that there should be fixed punishment for each type of crime and the motivation for commiting it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

At present, It is controversial among people whether fixed punishment is more effective and efficient for nowadays society, or whether each crime should be judged

case

by

case

. In

this

essay, the benefits of viewpoints will be examined before my perspective is reached. On the one hand, the fixed

penalty

can significantly reduce the workload of government officers including polices, lawyers, judge, and many more as they do not need to consider

case

by

case

, which is time-consuming.

For example

, If people drive

while

drunk, the police can immediately impose fines and other punishments without sending the issue to court.

Therefore

, the procedures of trials are reduced and the processes of implementation are more efficient.

On the other hand

, some crimes need to be considered through a long process in order to get the most suitable

penalty

. To illustrate, If an owner of a gold shop shoot thieves who try to steal gold from him, the owner should not be punished by law and regulation as his intention is to protect his belonging.

However

, if the authority implements the fixed punishment, the owner would be sent to jail as a criminal. In

this

way, the unfixed

penalty

seems to be more effective. In conclusion, both views have their own advantages. In my opinion, the authority should classify the cases of crime, which the people who commit soft guity

such

as traffic should be imposed by fixed

penalty

, and the individuals who commit severe guity like killing others should be considered individually.
