Can capital punishment (death penalty) ever be justified?
• Arguments for capital punishment
• It would be only fair for the victims if the criminals are subject to the greatest fear of all- death.
• If capital punishment is ever to be done away with, the potential wrong-doers wouldn’t be deterred from committing staggeringly serious offenses among which serial murder proves particularly appalling.
Arguments against capital punishment
• Capital punishment, which even though manages to bring the criminals to justice, could by no means compensate for physical, mental and psychological sufferings inflicted on victims, or in some extreme cases, bring back their lives.
• It is entirely unjustified to deprive one of his/her rights to live regardless of how insanely severe and cruel the offenses he/she has committed are. （This subject matter
