    As a human being the death penalty being enforced back into Australian society would mean a large number of death in our country and impact myself greatly.

These repercussions would include rioting if a man who was wrongfully convicted, was sentenced to death and families rampaging after a lost son or daughter, sister or brother.…

Although I made good claims with factual evidence, the amount of stuttering I did, and all the times I was choked up throughout the speech drew my audience’s attention away. From this, I lost my audience’s belief that I was competent of the information I was reiterating to them. At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…
