Capital Punishment is Too Lenient for Sick and Vile Criminals :: Argumentative Persuasive Essays

Capital Punishment is Too Lenient for Sick and Vile Criminals      Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   I always considered the death penalty as an issue which I never had to concern myself with.   First of all I'm not planning to commit any vial crimes, and   I don't think anyone I care about has evil plans either.   Secondly, I've never been conscious or concerned with the lives of criminals.   When we began speaking on the subject, I thought we were only going to talk about the institution of racism in capital punishment, and was quite unaware of the feeling this subject would arouse in me.   Needless to say, I have formed some opinions on the issue which confused even me.      Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   I always considered myself pro-capital punishment.   I was of the mind that if someone killed me, I would like my death avenged, but pondering on the issue of cultural differences has made me doubt my prior convictions.   First of all, I am against the use of the lethal injection.   I understand that it is cleaner, but if the law wants to inflict death as a punishment, it must understand that death is not a pretty thing.   Criminals are painlessly put to sleep, and die in the same manner that Dr. Kavorkian's patients choose.
