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 extend do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
The issue of whether or not capital punishment should be applied to reduce the
crime
rate and increase the safety of a nation has grown in importance over the past few decades. The death penalty cannot act as a deterrent since there are more reasons why people
turn to crime
among those people
should be discouraged from committing crime
by other measures.
To begin
with, as a result
of economic recession and high cost of living people
have encountered numerous serious problems, in that, there are many forces to push them to commit a crime
like insufficient income. For example
, people
who live in the suburbs or deprived areas are more likely to turn to crime
. Therefore
, some investigations should be taken to control the crime
rate by solving economic issues. Moreover
, children who work at an early age are deprived of studying and are more susceptible to crime
. Thus
, the level of education and also
educational system of a country are of paramount importance. For instance
, educated societies have minimum crime
rates.
On the other hand
, the people
who commit a crime
should be aware of the consequences of their work. Consequently
, they should be arrested and should be brought to trial to be sentenced for their crime
. However
, capital punishment can encourage violence and aggressive behaviour and other measures should be taken. For instance
, governments should impose hefty fines on crimes or they can keep the criminal in custody for several years to be severely punished. Such
force will let a criminal think twice before taking any aggressive action. Ignoring any punishments will lead to a dangerous society and people
will lose the feeling of safety.
In conclusion, capital punishment cannot reduce the crime
rate in society because people
face many other problems on a regular basis and something should be done to address those problems. In addition
, governments should raise public awareness about committing a crime
and other punishments can be carried out and governments should enforce strict laws to control the violence in a country.Submitted by mahsa19amiri on
