Capital punishment is often associated with cruel and unusual punishment by societies all around the world, even in non-democratic governments. Punishments of crimes should be awarded on the motive of serving pain and regret to the criminals or providing a sense of justice to the victim or the victim's relatives as well as society. Sentencing a criminal to death may be done through cruel and unusual means but in my opinion a very necessary action to be taken based on the offense committed. Capital punishment has been practiced for centuries with the same kind of debate and questions being asked but nevertheless has it been immoral in today's world of justice. It is reasonable to argue that capital murder to certain crimes is inappropriate but in most cases, these crimes are greatly and severely offensive to humanity and should be held in due to the death punishment. The majority of society who are against capital punishment suggest the sentencing to life instead of capital punishment but my question is why do we allow a man who has killed women for decades to be sentenced to life just to serve him a non-cruel punishment?
In conclusion, I do agree with capital punishment being a mean of sentencing criminals and in debate, this form of punishment seemingly cruel is very well moral.
