아슷흐랄 보바나~ ㅋㅋ

  Blowing a police siren, armed police enter swiftly the silent apartment that someone fell asleep. Soon, an arrested man is dragged out by police. After a few months, the man was sentenced to death on charges of murder and raping his friend. When the execution is only a few days off, the man call a newswriter to ask a favor. That is to establish his innocence. Next, the newswriter find the evidence, which is the video tape that shows a his innocence. The contents of the tape is that everything was a self-made show by his dead friend. However, the man is finally executed.

  This is the story of the movie "David gale", which insists on the repeal of the death penalty. In fact, The executed man and his dead friend sacrifice themselve for proving one reason that the death penalty shouldn't be allowed. How do you fell about the situation? Although it was planned, an innocent man was killed by the government. As you can see above, the government did not intend, of course, but they kill the man. The government have the powers to control many problems in society, one of the powers is a law. In a society where human beings do criminal cases, it needs to protect and defend the crimes, but the death penalty is too cruel punishment.

  One reason to abolish the death penalty is that there is a possibility of misjudgment. The case of the introduction showed that misjudgment is possible. Moreover 35 percent of judges said that they have experienced misjudgment. Thus,  Misjudgment could result in the death penalty, there is no chance to save an innocent person. If the death penalty is abolished, despite the misjudgment, the danger of misjudgment would be decresed. Being killed an innocent person will never happen. Instead of the death penalty, the life sentence without parole would be a good alternative. Even when some innocent person is given a decision of guilty by the misjudgment, He can be saved through applying for a retrial, and he can demand compensation for the damage.

  The second reason is that nobody has a right to kill others including the government. The constitution specifies that human life cannot be used as a tool or be killed. Every person has a right not to be killed. Even the man to be punished is a serial killer, the government havn't a right to kill him. The death penalty as a punishment is a savage act. Many contries in the world have abolished the death penalty. For example, the EU, which is the European Union, even require abolition of the death penalty as a qualification for joining. Korea has not executed the death penalty for 12 years, since 1997. According to Amnesty International, a country that has not executed the death penalty for 10 years is considered as the country without capital punishmnet , so Korea is an actual death penalty abolition country.

  Let's think of the purpose of punishment for crime. In a society, people make laws to manage the society. If someone breaks the rules, the government punishs the man who caused damage to the society. The purpose of punishment is to preserve the order of society and to forces bad guys to reflect themselves. It is not that the society eliminates the existence of the bad guys. A large number of criminals are raised in adversity. Most of them commit a crime for that reason. So, the government should give a good environment to people rather than punish someone who committed crime. If the government only trie to remove the output of bad environment, the vicious circle of crime keeps repeating. The governement should remove the fundamental cause of crimes.

  The people who approve of the death penalty might insist that a government should warn bad guys not to do crime, such as murder, by the death penalty. They believe that the death penalty will cause a decrese of the crime rate because of fear of the death penalty. It seems that some statstical data, which is the crime rate decresed after execution of death penalty, show why the death penalty is needed. However, the fact that crime rate decresed after the execution is not enough to prove that the death penalty cause a decrese of the crime rate. Because crime rate also decreased in the country that abolished the death penalty. Furthermore, most people can't know that they will commit a crime, and then will be sentenced the death penalty ahead of time. A large portion of crimes happened in a moment. When a man commmits a crime against others, he cannot aware of his mind. All men have a fear of death, but a momentary impulse is more strong than the fear at that time because the impulse makes him cannot think of it. So, the government should give him one chance to reflect himself.

  The death penalty as a punishment for serius criminals is not right. It has many shortcomings and it isn't be proved its social effect. There is also a good alternative better than it. The death penalty put bad guys who commit serius crimes into another place to separate from innocent people. However, a prison work the function very well instead of the death penalty. Thus, A life sentence without parole will be a good alternative. Finally, a government has to try to prevent crimes by well-organized laws. The best way to prevent crimes is not punishmnet, but making society better than the past. And, the government should keep in mind that they has no right to kill others. Nobody wants to be killed.
