In life, neutrality is rarely sustainable and can even hinder progress. Individuals have a responsibility to own their actions and clearly articulate their positions on significant issues.
Taking a side on the DEATH PENALTY requires engaging with deeply held convictions about justice, human rights, and social policy. Those who support the death penalty assert that it delivers appropriate retribution, deters serious crime, and upholds public safety. In contrast, opponents maintain that capital punishment is inherently inhumane, prone to discrimination, and presents an unacceptable risk of executing innocent individuals; they also challenge its effectiveness as a deterrent. As a result, the debate compels individuals and societies to weigh the demands for justice and security against enduring ethical concerns and the value of human life.
