PRO Death Penalty
Download as DOCX, PDF1 like475 views
The document provides three arguments in favor of the death penalty: 1) It is a more humane form of punishment than life imprisonment without parole or other harsh sentences, as it ends prolonged suffering. 2) Life imprisonment does not always guarantee criminals will be incarcerated for life, as some have received pardons or early parole. 3) Some criminals, even in prison, remain threats to society through their influence and ability to continue criminal operations; the death penalty is the only way to fully remove this threat.

The document discusses several arguments against capital punishment, including that it does not effectively deter crime, it makes the state murderers and convicts victims, and it is a waste of human life. It argues that we must reform our justice system and abolish barbaric practices like the death penalty. The document also notes that some death row inmates have been exonerated, calling into question how many executed individuals may have been innocent. It concludes that money fuels the system of capital punishment despite life imprisonment being less costly.Cover

Ketema Ross brutally beat his elderly neighbors with a broom handle in 2007, believing he was acting on orders from the president and CIA to stop a terrorist attack. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity and spent seven years in a high security mental hospital. Most people with mental illness who commit crimes spend much longer incarcerated than if they had committed the same crime with criminal intent. Society understands punishment but does not understand mental illness, making it difficult for those found not guilty by reason of insanity to receive fair treatment.Capital Punishment: Doctrine of Torture and Kill

That hundred and forty years after Fyodor Dostoyevsky enlightened us against capital punishment, we still persist with it in some parts of our planet, belies our insensitivity towards the sensitivities of these condemned by the justice system of our own making. What Dostoyevskys Prince Myshkin said in The Idiot then is something forever, When they announce the sentence, you know, and prepare the criminal and tie his hands, and cart him off to the scaffoldthats the fearful part of the business. The people all crowd roundeven women though they dont at all approve of men looking on. And I may tell youbelieve it or not, as you like - that when that man stepped upon the scaffold he CRIED, he did indeed,he was as white as a bit of paper. Isnt it a dreadful idea that he should have cried cried! Whoever heard of a grown man crying from fearnot a child, but a man who never had cried beforea grown man of forty-five years? Imagine what must have been going on in that mans mind at such a moment; what dreadful convulsions his whole spirit must have endured; it is an outrage on the soul thats what it is. Because it is said thou shalt not kill, is he to be killed because he murdered some one else? No, it is not right, its an impossible theory. I assure you, I saw the sight a month ago and its dancing before my eyes to this moment. I dream of it, often.Capital punishment

1) The document discusses the debate around capital punishment in the U.S., outlining arguments from both proponents and opponents.
2) Proponents argue that capital punishment deters crimes, is a just punishment for severe crimes like murder, and prevents criminals from committing additional crimes. Opponents argue it risks executing innocent people and is unfairly applied, often in a racially discriminatory manner.
3) The document also notes the high financial costs of the death penalty system compared to life imprisonment without parole as an argument against capital punishment.Gold Scam

The author criticizes a man who defrauded American citizens of $30 million through a business. While the man apologized, the author argues his apologies were only for himself and to try to receive a lighter sentence. The author questions why the man does not return the wealth he accrued through fraud. They also question why people would invest large sums of money with strangers over the phone without doing proper research, noting that if an investment seems too good to be true it probably is not legitimate.Peter hitchens oct 2012

Capital punishment is the legitimate causing of death as a result of breaking the law in accord to
criminal law. Several jurisdictions have go on to exercise this means of penalizing felonies and
in the other parts, questions emerge on the legitimacy of the exercise. The mostly used methods
of implementing capital punishment long ago incorporated skewering as well as beheading. The
current society, the generally applied techniques vary from lynching, shelling, and electrocution
to lethal injections.

This document discusses the legal definition and elements of the offense of murder in the UK. It defines murder as an "unlawful killing" with "malice aforethought," which can be expressed as an intention to kill or cause serious harm. It explains the developments around the concept of "oblique intent" and distinguishes between "express malice" and "implied malice." Key court cases such as Moloney, Nedrick, and Woollin are referenced in relation to how foresight of consequences can be used as evidence of intent. The document also briefly mentions the partial defense of provocation and law reforms around the year and a day rule.Synopsis of crime drama

The document discusses Michel Foucault and Erving Goffman's perspectives on delinquency and stigma. Foucault defined delinquency and explored its origins but did not address the stigma faced after leaving prison. Goffman explored how the delinquent faces a discrediting stigma that disqualifies them from acceptance. The document gives an example of an ex-convict unable to find work due to stigma, which led to recidivism. While Foucault focused on rehabilitation, Goffman showed how stigma continues to affect reintegrating individuals. Their views differed on the idea of a "normal" standard, with Goffman arguing there is no standard and everyone deviates to someAgainst death penalty

The document argues against the death penalty for three main reasons:
1) Many innocent people have been executed, as evidenced by over 130 people released from death row after being wrongly convicted of murder. Once carried out, the death penalty cannot be reversed if new evidence is later found.
2) The death penalty process and appeals system is very long and expensive, often lasting over 25 years and costing over $1 billion more than life imprisonment without parole.
3) The death penalty is inhumane and violates human rights, as no person or legal system has the right to end another human life.Death penalty final rationel - Tran Huu Minh Quan - 11BSM4

This document discusses arguments for and against the death penalty. It argues that the death penalty should be abolished for several reasons. It does not effectively deter crime, as murder rates are higher in countries that have the death penalty compared to those that do not. It is also against morality to kill someone as punishment. The process of appealing a death sentence is very long and costly, with taxpayers spending millions of dollars to execute very few people. There is also a risk of putting innocent people to death due to flaws in the justice system. Life imprisonment is a better alternative as it allows criminals to learn from their mistakes and potentially be rehabilitated.Death Penalty final rationel - Tran Huu Minh Quan - 11BSM4

It is not unconstitutional for Congress to authorize the death penalty for drug trafficking offenses that are considered "crimes against the state." The Supreme Court has held that the death penalty is disproportionate for crimes against individuals like rape that do not result in death. However, for crimes against the state such as drug trafficking, even without a death, the Court has said the death penalty may be constitutional. Congress has passed laws authorizing the death penalty for certain drug kingpin activities and crimes involving large-scale drug trafficking and death. Judges must sentence under these laws, but still cannot impose mandatory death sentences, as that would be unconstitutional. If a case challenging these drug offender death penalty laws reached the Supreme Court, it could use judicial review toVisual argument presentation

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.

It summarizes the facts of the two cases - one involving a 14-year-old in Arkansas who participated in a robbery where his accomplice killed the store clerk, and another involving a 14-year-old in Alabama who severely beat and killed a man during a robbery. The document discusses arguments that will be made that mandatory life without parole sentences for juveniles are cruel considering their brains are not fully developed and they are more likely to rehabilitate. However, some states argue these sentences are justified for serious crimes and will deter juveniles from committing murder. The court will decide if life without parole isCapstoneCapitalPunishment

Capital punishment has been debated in the United States throughout its history. While some studies have found it deters crime, others have been inconclusive. Supporters argue it deters serious crimes by instilling fear in would-be criminals, prevents repeat offenses by incapacitating dangerous individuals, and fulfills a desire for retribution. However, opponents argue there is no clear evidence it deters crime more than other punishments like life in prison. The debate around capital punishment considers its effectiveness from ideological perspectives like deterrence, incapacitation, rehabilitation and retribution.Shawshanck and shit

Based on his 44 years spent in various prisons, including 12 years in solitary confinement, Rideau argues that solitary confinement is psychologically damaging and that prisons do little to prepare inmates for release back into society. He uses his own experience and observations from other prisons to advocate for more humane treatment of inmates and greater focus on rehabilitation through education, job training, and open communication between prison officials and inmates.The Policeman's Lot, Cont.

Currently, 79 juvenile offenders under age 14 are serving life without parole for homicide.

Each episode would have a crime-solving theme set in a different period, from Victorian times to wartime eras, with tones varying from grim to upbeat depending on the depicted era. The show aims to appeal to both teenage and older audiences. It would air weekly on Friday nights at 9PM on the E4 channel as a blend of sci-fi, fantasy and police procedural genres. Each episode would tell a self-contained story, with an overarching storyline across the season exploring how the main character became a time-traveling detective.

The appellant appealed his conviction of sexual assault. He had agreed to pay a prostitute $100 for sex but then said he did not have the money after the act. The trial judge explained to the jury that fraud exists if one party engages in an act assuming the terms will be met, but the other does not fulfill their end. The appeal was allowed and a new trial ordered because the judge's explanation of fraud could have directly influenced the jury, as fraud has been associated with the nature of the act or identity of the offender, not casual connections to consent.

Manson ordered his followers to commit murders to trigger this war. Manson and three followers were found guilty of the murders and initially sentenced to death, but this was later reduced to life in prison due to the abolition of the death penalty.

The document discusses China's one child policy, which was introduced in 1979 to control the country's rapidly growing population. The policy limited urban couples to only one child and led to controversial population control measures. While it helped reduce population growth, it also caused issues like an aging population and gender imbalance from cultural preferences for sons over daughters. In recent years, China has relaxed the policy by allowing two children for rural families and ethnic minorities. However, the long-term implications of the imbalanced population structure due to the one child policy remain to be seen in the future.Less babies please

- 1. Arguments for the death penalty<br />IDENTIFY REASONEXPLAIN REASONPROVIDE EVIDENCE More Humane than other Forms of PunishmentCompared to incapacitation, which is a kinder phrase for lobotomy, or sentencing a criminal to solitary confinement for the next 25-50 years, executing a criminal may seem like a more humane option. A criminal sentenced to life without parole will never again see daylight, and will have to consider the consequences of their crime until the day they die. From an emotional standpoint, ending this elongated, intense level of suffering for a prisoner could be considered a mercy.The death penalty is more humane than life imprisonment.(Assuming, for the sake of the claim, that the execution is carried out in a humane manner, and that life imprisonment actually means油life油imprisonment, not, say, seven years and then parole.)- Alistair YoungLife Imprisonment doesnt necessary mean the person is guaranteed to be imprisoned for life. Surprisingly, life in prison without the possibility of parole does not always mean a criminal will truly remain in prison until the day they die.油Stacey Lannert, convicted for the 1990 murder of her sexually-abusive father, served 18 years of a life without parole sentence before receiving a full pardon by outbound Missouri governor Matt Blunt in January 2009. Lisa Connelly, one of the seven responsible for the 1993 Florida murder of Bobby Kent, was able to reduce her sentence of life in prison to 22 years upon appeal. In 2004, Connelly was released, despite being one of the primary planners of the Bobby Kent slaying. Through time, law changes, political authority figures change, and points of view on the death penalty change. Given enough time, yesterdays child-killer may become todays lifer, then tomorrows parolee.Removal of a Threat to SocietyEven though Saddam Hussein was captured and tried via an Iraqi tribunal in 2005, he still remained a threat; one of his tribunal judges was assassinated before the trial even began. Charles Lucky Luciano, possibly the most successful organized crime leader in history, didnt retire after being deported to Italy for the remainder of his life; he continued to control American organized crime long after his exile. Pablo Escobar, a criminal so ruthless he allegedly mailed witnesses invitations to their own funerals, was not only able to control his criminal empire from a luxurious prison, but he was also able to escape with a disturbing level of ease. Some criminals are truly above the law, in that their influence can reach the outside world even if they are behind bars. For this reason, some criminals are simply too dangerous to live at all.JusticeMay the punishment fit the crime. At the risk of being biased, this is definitely the best definition of justice that has ever existed or ever will exist.A desire for justice is one of the inherent qualities of most humans, and it prevents society from falling into a despotic chaos where the average, peaceful person would be subject to the anger, violence, and madness of criminals. A societys law, and the justice that is dispensed by its hands, is ultimately what keeps the citizenry of that society safe at night if anything does.In places where the death penalty is an option, it is one of the cornerstones of justice.For the sake of societys stability, fair and swift justice must always exist, and the complete removal of people who would destroy that society through crime is absolutely necessary. The death penalty serves this purpose better than any other form of punishment, as it ultimately ensures that a criminal can never harm another person again. From the perspective of justice, the death penalty serves any given populace by erasing its worst element: the criminal one.Do you want your close friend/ family members killer to still live in the world that you live in?
