The document argues against the use of capital punishment for several reasons. It states that capital punishment is no longer needed in modern society and that "when you use murder to end murder you guarantee murder will never end." It also argues that capital punishment violates the 8th amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment. Additionally, it claims that the death penalty does not effectively deter crime, is unreliable and has led to the execution of innocent people. The document advocates that society would benefit from abolishing capital punishment and that the money used for death penalty cases would be better spent helping society.
