The death penalty

Nowaday in Spain the death penalty doesn't exist. I think that if a country uses the death penalty they have to be very sure that they have all the evidence and know that the person is guilty. If they make a mistake and execute someone, they cannot change the result. There have been examples where after years of being in prison someone has been found to be innocent.


On the other hand, for example, if in the future I have a child and someone hurts, violates or kills my child I would want yhem to suffer the same. In the bible it says: " An eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth". If someone kills another person, that person should also be killed.


The death penalty only exists now in some states of America and in some Asian countries. I believe in revenge but I still have to think that if they make a mistake, then someone innocent dies.


In conclusion I think that the death penalty in our country, Spain, should exist because there are more cases of violent crimes, murders, sexual violations... that with the death penalty, maybe, there wouldn't be so many cases like these. However, I also think that when applying the feath penalty we must be sure that the person convicted is the correct one because this person could die accused of a thing that he it had nothing to do with! Here we have a big problem, the worst problem about having or not having the death penalty.

  1. Hi Sergi!
    After reading your composition I want to comment this because I think that it's so good.

    In my point of view, the death penalty should exists because the people who kill others, don't deserve to be alive.

    But, on the other hand, I also think that the police have to be sure that this possible killer was the real killer, because maybe some innocent people could die.

  2. Oh! This is a difficult topic to think on, so the death penalty is a very complex thing.
    It's true that here, in Spain, there are violent cases of deaths and violations which should be solved in other ways to just arrest the persons who comit it; but maybe the death is too heavy.
    In other hand, if I imagine that someone kill one member of my family, I think that I would hope this person died, because people has to be conscient about what are they doing, and kill someone is a very sharp crime.
    I've just said that it's difficult to think of the death penalty, and it's true, it's a really complicated topic!
    See you,

  3. Hi Sergi!
    I agree with you because I also think that in Spain should be approved the deaht penalty for many reasons some of them are the sexual violation's cases, thieves who killed the owners... For example the case of family of the jewerly businees called Tous, I find it unfair because he only wants to protect himself.
