Against Capital Punishment

Most peck would say that the penalty should fit the crime, that can everyone really justify murdering someone simply because they deserved it?

i cannot understand how killing a murderer makes you morally any better than them. Good essay, although you did repeat a few points.

That was a very well written essay and it shows that you researched it and found your facts in various places which show you are concerned. Your essay is short and to the point and does not go on and on about superfluous crap.

Good arguments. Never seen it from this perspective before. But I still do not agree with you. But good to find revolutionary good arguments to be prepared against.
