After reading the Unit VIII Lesson (ATTACHED), please select one item from Unit VIII Lesson, and give your final thoughts on that subject.ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION THEN REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 125 WORDS or MORE EACH QUESTION)CLASSMATE’S POSTThe death penalty has been said to be a barbaric act, but others will say it is a necessity for the act that landed them in prison. I think that is a moral nightmare when the wrongfully accused are sentenced to death. The death penalty should be an absolute with no evidence that the person on trial can be innocent. I also can see how this sentence can be a deterrence for potential criminals. The ultimate decision in taking someone’s life is to have your life taken. Though this does not bring the person back, it can lead bring a bit of justice to the family. The only issue is that with an “eye for an eye” tactics, is that it leaves the world blind. This means that as a reflection, are we (the country) no better than the person we put to death?
