To FRY or not that is the question?


Should you rape a rapist?
Steal from a thief?
Set an arsonist on fire?

Then why, should America allow a death penalty?
People who kill others deserve to lose their rights. Last year 1,373 people were murdered in Texas alone. However, since legal or not, execution constitutes cruel and unusual punishment, encourages revenge, and costs the American people millions of unnecessary dollars; it follows that executing someone to prove that murder is wrong is ludicrous and immoral.
Do you disagree or agree? Why?
** I want all responses well-written and respectively of the level of work you would turn in.

    Yes, I agree that executing someone to prove that murder is wrong is immoral. It is immoral because the constitution prohibited cruel and unusual punishments and murdering someone is not excluded. How do the government to expect everyone to follow the constitution if the government do not folllow the constitution?
