There seems to be an increasing number of serious crimes committed each year. While some think the best way is to use the death penalty as a deterrent, many people believe that other measures will be needed. Discuss both sides. (Discussion essay)

The rate at which serious

crimes

are increasing daily is alarming and detrimental to the safety of society, and

hence

to control

such

irresponsible acts serious

punishments

and

penalties

are to be implemented. Some argue that execution of the

criminals

/delinquents is the best solution to curb felony,

while

others argue that resorting to other

punishments

and

penalties

would help better.

that would refrain them from committing sin, thereby substantially reducing or limiting/restricting the number of antisocial acts o violence, bloodshed and cold-blooded murders.
