Practice 15. Death Penalty Outline

I. Death Penalty should be completely abolished in our society owing to the fact that it doesn’t decrease crime rates, costs a lot of money and puts innocent lives at risk.

II. It does not decrease crime rates.

    A. Society would feel afraid to commit a crime.

1.     No evidence.

2.     NC Coalition.

1.1.           Crimes in the heat of passion.

1.2.           Under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

    B. States without the death penalty have a lower murder rate.

    B. Total prosecution and defence costs.

IV. It puts innocent lives at risk.

    A. 138 innocent men released.

2.     Missouri, Texas and Virginia.

    B. Execute an innocent person is reprehensible.

V. We have all the right reason to live. May it be a criminal, a priest or just an ordinary person? Criminals especially murderers have been tortured and killed multiple times. They have committed a hideous crime, it doesn't mean that we have to hurt them or kill them also. According to Mahatma Gandhi, “an eye for an eye turns the world blind”. We are all familiar with this quotation; if someone hits me then I would hit them too. If we use this system all the time then there won’t be a need for us to implement laws for we are already following our own conscience, it doesn't matter if we are right or wrong. In this world, nobody is perfect which means we all have our own flaws and mistakes. The best way to make up to the people whom we have hurt or may have hurt us, we need first to accept our faults and forgive our own selves. If we are still being a hard headed person then we wouldn't have our own inner peace again. We should also forgive others, do not hold any grudges and let God decides the punishment for them. Death penalty is not a solution to end crimes and for the other problems of our society. Death Penalty should be completely abolished in our society owing to the fact that it doesn’t decrease crime rates, costs a lot of money and puts innocent lives at risk.

29. Music that is special to you

I have never listened to one single type of music because I love discovering new songs and singers, but it is true that the genre of music that I have listened the most during my hole life is pop or it variation, pop-rock. If I had to choose music from one singer, it would be music from Alexander Stewart. He is form Canada, but he is not very famous. I discovered him almost four years ago thanks to YouTube, where he posts covers of songs and his original ones. He has an amazing voice and I can say that his music has made my days happier because he is an amazing person and his songs express honesty and sincerity, specially the last one that he has launched, Compare Myself. That song explain that you do not have to compare yourself because you are perfect the way you are, and that mental health is also important. The day that he launched it, I woke up at 5 am to listen it and I could not go back to bed until I learnt the whole song. It took me one hour approximately because it is so easy...

2. A special skill I have

Since I was a child, I’ve always loved to play instruments, so, when I was seven years old, my parents singed me at the conservatory of my city. I started to learn how to play the transverse flute. But I quit it because I wanted to play a more functional instrument that I heard in almost every song I listened to, and it was the piano. Then, I understood that the more I played piano, the more I loved it, so it became one of my passions and one of my favourite hobbies. When I was ten years old, I started learning how to play piano while I had my eyes closes, and I saw I loved the idea, so I practiced it as much as I could and now, I know how to play piano without seeing the piano keyboard.
