They wanted to come up with a way to give harsher punishments to those that broke the law. So, they came up with the idea of retributive justice.

How can we say justice is served by executing someone’s beloved? A man may take another man’s life but who are we to say he should be beheaded?

No man should have the power to decide another man’s life or death since everyone is equal. Execution is not only cruel but can also lead to killing an innocent man, and it costs millions for one death penalty…

I chose the movie Takers. I watched this movie a long time ago and after the first time seeing it I immediately wanted to watch it again. In all the movie was about a few friends who were profesional robbers. They robbed big banks and they made a lot of money.

They do the heist but…
