The death penalty is fairer to the victim and the families of the victim. In a homicide the right to live has been taken away by the murderer. No victim has ever said, "kill me I want to die." Therefore, it is only proper and fair to the killer to have his life taken away also. Morality also plays a big part in the right of a murderer. Morality is defined as the principles of right and wrong. As human beings, we deserve the right praise of the good deeds accomplished and punishment for the wrong doings. Punishment can range from being yelled at to the death penalty depending on the seriousness of the crime.

In the United States if one is sentenced to murder, he or

Some of the states that do not have the death penalty have a lower rate of crime. It is said that the severe penalty only inspires more severe crimes. This is not the case as some of the studies have shown. Most of the states that do not have the death penalty are small and only include a few rural areas that do not carry the kind of crime that the urbanized states do. The states with the higher crime rate automatically assume responsibility for the death penalty. During the suspension on capital punishment in the 1970's, researchers gathered statistics around the country. This suspension of the death penalty lead too increasing murders. By the time the penalty was put back into effect, the murder count had risen 11,360, thus proving the death penalty effective. (Bohm)

„h "In 1979, Donald Dillbeck was convicted and sentenced to 25 years n prison for murdering a Florida sheriffs deputy. In 1983, he tried to escape. In January of this year, he was transferred to a minimum security facility. On June 22nd, he walked out away from a ten-inmate crew catering a school banquet. Two days later, he was arrested and charged with stabbing a women to death at a Tallahassee Shopping mall" (unknown web reference).

Just a few years of punishment in jail is too light. The murderer is almost catered to while he or she is in the facility. The inmates can weightlift for fun making themselves bigger and faster for when they get out. The inmates' facilities even hold weightlifting competitions for the inmates. The inmates also have televisions. They should not have the right to watch t.v. If they have killed somebody or attempted to murder a person. There are also video games in some prisons giving the inmates hours of fun. Food is another controversial topic with prison facilities. The men and women there are given three square meals a day with desert. Most normal Americans do not get to eat that well. Some homeless Americans don't get to eat a third of what these inmates are catered to. The inmates also have what they call recess time. During recess time they can go out and play games like basketball, football, and even handball.
