Death Penalty: Revenge or Social Justice? - 0 views

  •  
    The death penalty is a social issue. A person who got caught with marijuana can get the death penalty depending on how much they have but murders can live 25 to life in jail/prison. The parameters need to be specified.

Arizona | Death Penalty - 1 views

  •  
    This article is very informational on the death penalty in Arizona. It shows a timeline on how the process started back in 1965, until current times. It ranges from hangings, to gas chambers, and now the lethal injections. There are examples provided as well on the different inmate cases that were sentenced the death penalty. It is more informational rather than argumentative on death penalties.

    Really interesting article. I had no idea all of the problems Arizona has had and the controversies involved. The timeline helped paint the picture of the major events, all which were new to me.
  •  
    In my opinion I'm not agree with death penalty for criminals. I know that some of them deserve death or more but I think we don't have the right to take lives away.
  •  
    I agree with you 100%. I liked this article because it stated facts on the death penalty in Arizona(informational), but it was not argumentative. It allowed me to become more educated on the topic.

    The death penalty is not a solution to cases involving murder, and may lead to cases where the mentally sick or innocent people are sentenced to death. The article provides numbers and statistics that support these claims.

    A murderer on death row was administerd a lethal injection drug that has not been used before. He was sentenced in 1988. This was the last inmate to die on death row since the hold last year.

    The death penalty is a difficult one because if people can have mixed emotions about executing someone based their crime. I just try to put me self in the victims family shoes, Robert Brook and Robert McDowell. Mark Asay had not problem taking these lives and if that was my loved one, than I would want to see justice severed.
  •  
    When it comes to a case like this, I wholeheartedly believe that Mark Asay deserved death for his crimes. I also believe that strict punishments like the death penalty need to be kept and used in order to impact homicide rates and discourage evil.
  •  
    I am totally in favor of the death row. Kills off horrible people we dont need them in our society. Who pays for them to live in prison?

  •  
    I like how this article gives us the pros and cons about the death penalty. Though, I feel it is in favor of banning the death penalty as it provides more "yes" statements than "no's".

    In this article it talks among the issue of the death penalty and how it should not be okay for such a horrific thing to take place. It states how many of the individuals who are on death row are not able to obtain good attorneys which results in the rates of execution to only increase.

Should We Have The Death Penalty - ProCon.org - 3 views

  •  
    This site gives 10 arguments on the same subject. It lets us see both sides of the argument. It gives real life examples about the topic as well.
  •  
    This is an excellent resource and covering both sides of the topic in a way that does not have me feel as though there is an agenda one way or another.
  •  
    I think this is a great resource for building your own argument or feeling on the death penalty as it gives examples of both sides and thoughts in each particular area. Instead of giving only one side of the thought, it gives the two (pros and cons) and thus makes it unbiased.

    I like the view this article has because I don't necessarily agree or disagree with the death penalty. It's probably important to assess all the various sides to such a controversial issue.
  •  
    Wow! This is a topic I didn't even think of researching but is so interesting. You have definitely sparked my interest and I'm beginning to like this assignment more and more! Thank you for thinking outside the box!
  •  
    This article is very interesting! I don't know if i agree or disagree with people who are ill wanting to end their life or not.
  •  
    This website states the opinions of those who support physician assisted suicide as well as those who oppose it. This is a social justice issue because a patient who is very ill and suffering should have the right to physician assisted suicide.
  •  
    This is something only me and my close friends can really talk about! In my opinion i believe yes but maybe rules should be added like approval from the family or a doctors approval.
  •  
    I have also found this topic interesting and very controversial. I have to say I'm on the fence here because as a healthcare worker, I do see some very sad situations within patients and their families. However, if someone is so sick to where they would want to end their life it is hard to say if they're in the right mind to make a decision like that.
  •  
    Physician Assisted suicide should be treated like abortion from my prospective. It should be heavily considered and heavily regulated and substantial counseling should go into leading up to the event itself. One thing to consider if you refuse someone to go out on their own terms, is they may find another way which may not result in a peacful passing for them.
  •  
    I think that this topic of Physician-Assisted Suicide takes the topic of suicide that we find extremely tragic and makes it okay. This idea of allowing people the choice to die with the assistance of a physician is just as tragic as people committing suicide.
  •  
    I like this source because it shows both sides of the issue. Not to mention how much information has. I feel like I could spend all night reading this.
  •  
    I have never really looked into this topic and realized that it is an issue, so I love reading more about it.
  •  
    If someone is very ill and there is nothing that anyone can do to help they should have the right end there own lives. It's horrible having to live long days, suffering and waiting for your life to end.
