The Controversial Issue Of Death Penalty In The United States

There is a saying around the world that goes, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,” so if I killed your brother, it means I deserved the same punishment, right? The topic of death penalty has been on the floor to be debated as a controversial issue in the United States for years. Many tend to believe that as soon as you lay your hands on another person and hurt them to the point of death, you already lost your moral and values to life, so what’s point of giving you a second chance? Although that might be partially true, we as human beings have no rights to decide the life and death of another being.
