Do you agree with the capital punishment?
In some countries, there are no capital
punishments.
Also, each country has different way to
kill criminals.
In Japan, some criminals get the punishment
every year. In Japan, condemned convicts are put to death by hanging. Crime of
rebellion against the government, conspiracy against Japan, arson
of inhabited structure, murder, robbery
resulting in death, robbery and murder, fatal rape
occurring during robbery or other crimes are considered to receive a death
sentence. Condemned criminals live in prisons and they can
choose their hair and clothes. Also, sometimes they enjoy watching movies. They
are given some pleasures to keep being in good health because they have to pay
with their lives.
They know to be executed their sentences in
the morning and their families know about it at a later date. When they are
executed the sentences, prison officers take them to a front room. Then, they
enjoy the last luxury items such as tobacco and snacks, write a will if they
have not written it yet, hear a sermon, and the head of prison announce
formally the execution of capital punishment. After that, they are put bandage
over their eyes, are put handcuffs and let them take to a room to execute the
sentence. Then, they are restricted their legs and stand on the appropriate
position. Three or five prison officers push the button as soon as the head of
prison give a signal and then the floorboard under the criminals opens and the
sentence is executed. Prison officers don’t know who killed the person because
there are some button. It has role to decrease the psychological burden for
prison officers. It is the fact of capital punishment in Japan.
What do you think read all of them?
Is capital punishment necessary?
Is it effective?
Is it good for people?
In my opinion, capital punishment is
necessary in Japan. It is because people who be executed their
sentences committed such cruel crimes and must atone for offense. No matter how
hard they try, they can never make up for their crimes. Also, it takes more
money if they live in prison until their dies and it will give a big damage to
Japanese government. Moreover, if they live in prisons for a long time, it is
possibility to plan a breakout. It is also dangerous for ordinary people. Besides,
if there is a capital punishment, it will be related with reducing crimes.
Therefore, capital punishment is necessary.
They know to be executed their sentences in
