Should we Re-Introduce Capital Punishment

Many children have been seeking protection from gangs. Some people wonder why they just don’t go to the police. One might argue by saying that the police would tell the child to go away. Nevertheless some people say that the children like to ‘hang’ around with the gangs. Some even grow up and become one of these so called ‘gangsters’. If this is the case then shouldn’t we eradicate the to be ‘trouble some’ ones?

Image and reputation is a very big thing in society. It is also a big thing in gangs. It shows how much respect you are worth within the gang. Normally the most respect is given to the strongest but not in all cases. These people think that they run the society. So why doesn’t the society get rid of these so called high stated people? On the contrary those people who have the high status in the gangs are probably due to the reason being that they feel proud to have this reputation. This could be due to them making a hash of their education.  

Many people who didn’t achieve anything except a bad reputation in their school life. This must have been the only sense of achievement they ever got. Doing so this feeling must have made them happy. If this made them happy do you think this made everyone else happy? The answer no might come across the mind. Of course not they would make themselves happy by torturing others. Don’t you think that we should try and extinct these people?

No. Extinction of these people would decrease the population of Britain. It will break hearts. It will kill more than one inside each family. Some people do these kinds of things to get somebody back. The term revenge might come across ones mind. After all it is a life for a life, so what difference does it make? Yes it might be the same principle however is it the right way? Shouldn’t they be punished the right way? Through the way of the law.

Having stated these points, I think that capital punishment should never be thought of being re-introduced under all circumstances because it is a cruel and nasty way for them to die. If they have committed a crime such as murder then maybe another punishment should be in order like corporal punishment. However there should be limits such as if a person who is beating him makes him shed the teeniest bit of blood then he should be beaten up too.
