Capital Punishment should be Banned or Allowed?

Hi, I am Shruti.

I think it should be allowed.

Rape rates, murders etc are increasing day by day.

1. Jails would be populated and life imprisonment isn't cheered for our economy. We have more important fields where GDP is needed.

2. The criminal mush is tortured. Made to repent and then hanged to death. This would create a fear in the mind of people to commit crimes.

3. An eye for an eye makes the world go blind. But leaving that person unpunished won't get you back your lost eye! The pain given by a criminal must be returned to him with a penalty of death punishment.

4. Freeing a criminal * (including the juvenile 16-18) according to Indian CP will only support the youth to commit crimes without the fear of GOI.

Capital Punishment should be allowed to stay because Eradicating it will mean that Nigeria will be subtly towing the path of Sodom and Gomorrah. Furthermore, Eradicating it will me that we are telling God who authorized whoever kill somebody should be killed. It should be noted that the 2 (two) Thieves with Jesus on the Cross were Armed Robbers. One of them repented But Jesus told him that he should face the Death Penalty first, then He would be with him in Paradise.

What I think should be done is that the Judicial Commission should amend the Professional Ethics for Legal Practitioners to the effect that any Lawyer who want to obtain the title of S.A.N. (Senior Advocate of Nigeria) should try to win at least 2 (two) Criminal Cases with Capital Punishment attach to them. This is because Our Lawyers are Lazy! and this is shown in the Judgement that is pronounced in the Court.

I believe that CP should be abolished.

Life is all about being given a Second Chance.

In this view, A person committing a crime should be subjected to Rehabilitation Rather than Imprisonment.

A person should be made aware of his wrong deeds rather than being subjected to rigorous imprisonment and CP. A person commuting a crime has certainly Numerous Reasons behind it-may be unhealthy background, greed, jealousy, or any other motive. Everyone is aware of the fact of Judicial System and thus No one would Commit any sort of Crime for Fun or Experiment ation. And so it's necessary to understand the Criminal's mental state and treat accordingly to provide him a Better and Secure Life in Future. Our Constitution doesn't provide Right to kill any Human, and why should it?

If God is the one who gives us Life, it's He who should decide when He wants to take us Back to Him.

Thank You.

In India, capital punishment should be banned, because, even if they are criminals they are still humans.

Capital punishment must never be condemned but this is to be executed in severe crimes. Likewise, rapists must be either hanged or punished on the roadside as practiced by the gov.of Saudi Arabia.

Through such a strict penalty a criminal/rapist would think thousand times before committing. But friends there is an issue, there must be a proper jurisdiction with no corruption because it often happens that an innocent is put to punishment.

If your not doing anything wrong and you feel fear about rape, murder, theft etc so it's not your living style its failure of law and justice.

If the government gives me permission to punish the criminal for ten days I will show that he will beg to you for kill himself and I will also have lots of plans about it for it will not going to happen in future, I am dam sure., if the government gives any authority.

Hi, everyone.

Most humans think that if they ruled the world, everything would be better, and that's because we tend to think that our opinions are absolute.

Many of us can say "we are all humans, we have the same rights", "we need to change them so we clean crime from the root" as well as we can say "fear is the best way to obey".

CP may be terrible as it is for some people, and yes, killing is cruel, but sadly, it's the most effective way to decrease crime. Trying to reinsert criminals to society may be effective for some, but most criminals just won't repent (or maybe they will fake their repentance). The best way to end crime is to eradicate it from its root, but that "root" can be taken as two different things: "education" and "life". So if we try to uproot this corruption, we can try to,

- Educate people to know what is right and what is wrong, and rehabilitate the corrupted, or.

- Exterminate corruption as deeply as possible.

Sadly, in a world already corrupted, the first one cannot happen. As cruel as it is, killing criminals is the best way to end this up; the easiest and the most effective. You may think "but people can be blamed for a crime they did not commit", then 1-the executed died innocent and that is what counts 2-we can try to make the "unproven criminals" stay in jail. In fact, they can be used as workers. Everyone has their own opinion, but an experience is what makes us think of an actual pseudo-solution.

As unperfect as it is, CP should be allowed.

My personal opinion is that it is uncivilized for the 'state' to take life: that is "murder by the State". But this' only my personal opinion - and probably does not adequately consider the pain of the relatives of the people who've been murdered, who probably want the murderer (s) to die.

It's yet another complex societal issue, which we've not learned how to deal with properly.

Studies have proven that capital punishment isn't an effective deterrent from crime.

Punishment should be more severe and painful for serious crimes; for examples,

If a person rapes somebody, he should be castigated with a hot iron rod mark on a visible body part (face/hand) so that in the future nobody trusts them because they can see the mark. All this should be done publicly.

I know that the punishment is very violent. And yet those who might oppose this view may have a subconscious thought that they might end up raping somebody.

Capital punishment should be banned because by mistake many innocent people get kill and that make suffer their family.
