A Defense of the Death Penalty Louis P. Pojman The death penalty serves as both a deterrent for would be murderers and a fitting punishment for those who intentionally and out of malice take the life of another human being. Retribution: It is sometimes argued that the death penalty serves as a form of revenge for the victims of heinous crimes. For those who argue from this stance, revenge is never the proper method for assigning punishment because it is done out of anger and with the intent of inflicting harm upon another human being. Vengeance itself is not the basis for designating the death penalty. Instead retribution is justification enough, although it may be accompanied by feelings of anger and hatred.

Death Penalty is a Crime To use a lethal injection, electrocution, or gas to murder someone is a crime. This is what law enforcer’s use for the death penalty, also called capital punishment. Death penalty is wrong, and making someone suffer by causing them pain is not a good way for a punishment. The death penalty is racist; also some people that received the penalty were innocent. Our country’s money is being wasted on death penalties.
Executions may increase murder rates because they raise the general violence level in society and because violence prone people identify with the executioner, not with the target of the death penalty. When someone gets in a conflict with such individuals or challenges his or her authority, he, or she will execute them in the same manner the states executes people who violates its rules. Since capital punishment is brutal, some countries have decided to abolish the cruel acts of punishment. They would rather have the offender remain incarcerated than to hand down such a brutal
Right and wrong is a reflection of people’s emotions, and as emotions vary, they can never have the same views on subjects. For example, a murderer could justify his actions as being "God's will" whereas many people would say that it’s wrong; not because of the moral rules, but because of moral values. Not everyone is religious and so will not accept his reason for murder. Natural Law has also not been proven so there is no point in pursuing the belief in them. Some may argue that murder, genocide, rape etc are universally wrong, but not everyone believes that.

Capital Punishment and the Categorical Imperative Theory Capital Punishment has long been a controversial issue. The death penalty by law fluctuates throughout the history of its enforcement.

If someone decides to follow what The Torah suggests, death penalty would be the best option to follow. I don’t believe death would be the solution. A person might suggest that if a person killed someone, the murderer should be killed, as well because it is written on The Torah especially because the dead wasn’t “By act of God” (639); however, I would say that the death of the murderer would not give us the answer we might need to find peace for ourselves. This is why I would use “Compassion” to “share the characteristics of consciousness itself”(732). This seems to say that “Compassion” would help me to understand why the reasons of the murder to kill.
When obviously they do not accept it by themselves? The point is the death penalty should not be abolished since it is the only way to stop criminals from killing, and hurting others. “The federal government and most states (38) in the USA have the death penalty.
