Evidence: My sense of justice

Fuente: SENA

“Freedom for the wolves has often meant death to the sheep.” Isaiah Berlin.

For this evidence, read the following statements. Express to what extent you
agree or disagree with them and explain your opinion:

Agree Disagree
I strongly agree. I strongly disagree.

I agree. I disagree.

a. Some people are biologically predisposed to become criminals.

b. Crime is a consequence of poverty.

c. A criminal cannot be reformed.

d. To reduce crime, we just need more police.

e. Some criminals deserve the death penalty.

Example:

I strongly agree with the idea that some people are biologically predisposed to
become criminals; however, research has shown that having a genetic
predisposition doesn’t determine the actions of an individual. What matters the
most, according to psychologists and psychiatrists, is the environment in which
and individual is brought up. I think this is something politicians and lawmakers
should keep in mind when designing preemptive campaigns that aim at
reducing crime.
