ESSAY ON: Capital Punishment

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page argumentative paper that argues against the death penalty. Murder is horrendous crime and it is usually a brutal crime. To many people, these facts justify the implementation of capital punishment. If someone murders, the state is seen as justified in taking the life of the murderer. However, the justice of this equation is built upon several assumptions that are problematic. Examination of these assumptions and their implications shows that arguments in favor of capital punishment do not hold up well under scrutiny, which suggests that the conclusion that capital punishment is poor public policy and constitutes an injustice unto itself. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
