Skribentens beskrivelse af The Death Penalty, to live or die for?The Death Penalty, to live or die for? 1. The article is about the death of two New York City police officers. The 53rd Governor of New York George E. Pataki has made a law proposal, which says that anyone convicted of a first degree murder of a police officer should be punished with the death penalty. The leading director of New Yorkers Against the Death Penalty David Kaczynski says that new statistics show that violent crime and murder are down statewide, even after a year and a half without the death penalty. He thinks that capital punishment is plagued with problems and injustice, and he think the right way to solve it is to use a sentence of life imprisonment instead without parole instead, because it protects the society while it is justice. Kathy Dillon, daughter of a murdered State Trooper means that if the death penalty couldn’t save/ protect her father that day, neither will it protect other police officers, who risk their lives. She also believes that humans should not have the right to decide who dies with no exceptions. Ozzie Thompson a former police officer says that he knows how bad the death penalty is to prevent crime, he thinks that it’s biased an unfair, wasteful and ineffective. |
