Death sentence: should be activated in every country of the world?
In a world replete with people that each one thinks differently, exist different punishments when we do something wrong as kill someone, bank robbery, kidnap or rape somebody. There is a punishment that no one must support it because it is a big mistake for penalize criminal people: death sentence.
This is a cruel and unusual punishment where basic standards of human dignity are compromised or undermined because the threat or use of the death penalty in such cases is a violation of human rights. Also, more than two thirds of the world’s states have chosen to abolish it in law or practice. In addition, death penalty continues the cycle of violence because it means that it is like a revenge of someone who did something wrong. It is just a form of the flawed thinking that two wrongs can make a right.
Additionally, killing people is wrong. Therefore they should not kill them for doing it even though it is not ok because it just does not make sense and a life spent in prison is a worse punishment than an execution. Also, the justice system is tied to make mistakes because it always will be prisoners who are innocent. Besides the government execute them and then they realize he or she was innocent, they can never come her or him back to life again.
In brief, death sentence must consider a violation of human rights even though someone kills a person. We do not have the power for kill the criminal, but we can spend his or her time in prison for a lot of time, being a worse punishment. They also will promote the violence activities around the world because they will think that if someone fault, someone will be killed.
