    For my reflection, every criminal should be punished for their actions, though death penalty cannot be considered a punishment. First, God gave everyone the right to live, so people do not have the right to take others' lives. Criminals like killers should be punished severely but not killed, as that would be committing another crime. Second, the death penalty puts innocent lives at risk because judgments can be mistaken and irreversible if an innocent person is later found to be innocent. While the death penalty costs a lot, humanity itself is more important than money, so financial costs should not be the primary reason for abolishing the death penalty. Death penalty should be banned because it disrespects human rights and judgments are irreversible.

    For my reflection, every criminal should be punished for his/her actions.

    And, this
    punishment should be adequate to the level of danger of the crime committed. However,
    death penalty can’t be consider as a punishment.
    First of all, God gave to every one of us the right to live. So who gave human the right to
    steal the life of others? Criminals such as killer must be punished in the worst way ever
    but shouldn’t be killed because we can’t solve a crime by another crime. To me, by
    killing criminals, we will be doing nothing but another crime maybe most dangerous than
    the previous one.
    Second of all, in my opinion, death penalty would put innocent lives at risk because it’s
    irreversible. Supposedly, a judge has mistaken or has judged someone innocent, if death
    penalty is the punishment, we can’t reverse it when reality shows up and the real criminal
    is known the innocent person would be already dead.
    However, I don’t agree that one of the reason to abolish death penalty is that it costs too
    much. In my opinion, we are tackling here a way more important issue than money:
    humanity itself. So, I don’t think we must give the bigger importance to the financial part
    of death penalty.
    Death penalty should be banned because of the disrespect of human rights it causes, and
    irreversibility.
