Capital Punishment
Capital Punishment serves justice and humans equality
Ever since the Big Bang and the foundation of Earth people had a Capital Punishment until the mid-19th century. People in the past were not as many as people nowadays and they are certainly different in the way they think and live. Zimring (2004) says “Until rather recently, the penalty of death was a universal feature of criminal justice.

Putting someone in a prison means that those people who put that person in prison are taking the freedom of that person and the United States of America have been well known for its freedom to their people and others.

We examine the deterrent hypothesis by using county-level, postmoratorium panel data and a system of simultaneous equations.”
Humans over the years have always wanted to make a better world and that is why they have made something called Laws, law is a system of a rule or rules to forbid someone from doing something and if so there are penalties. People should feel what the victim felt when they got killed, and that is the reason behind the Capital Punishment, is to make the guilty feel what the victim felt and that is justice. No one is different than the other, all human beings should be treated equally and all other living beings should be treated
