Response in English: The death penalty, or capital punishment, is a topic that has long been debated among individuals, societies, and governments. While some people believe that the death penalty acts as a deterrent to crime, others argue that it is an inhumane and cruel punishment that should be abolished. In this essay, we will present several strong arguments against the death penalty and why it should be abolished.First and foremost, the death penalty is an irreversible punishment. Once the sentence is carried out, there is no going back, and this finality raises the important issue of the risk of executing innocent people. In the U.S, for example, more than 185 people have been exonerated from death row since 1973 due to new evidence proving their innocence. Canada had also reversed wrongful convictions of Steven Truscott 1959, Wilson Nepoose 1960, and Wilbert Coffin 1956, with the help of The Association in Defence of the Wrongly Convicted. Each of these individuals could have been wrongfully executed, and there is no telling how many other innocent people have been put to death.Secondly, the death penalty is not a deterrent to crime. Extensive research has been conducted to determine the effectiveness of the death penalty as a deterrent, and the results have been consistent: the death penalty does not deter crime. A 2009 survey of criminologists revealed that over 88 of them did not believe that the death penalty was an effective deterrent. States that have abolished the death penalty have seen a decrease in their murder rates, further proving that capital punishment does not prevent crime.Third, the death penalty is expensive and burdens the taxpayer. The cost of the death penalty is significantly higher than that of a life sentence without the possibility of parole. A study conducted in California found that the average cost of a death penalty case was 2.3 million, while a case resulting in a life sentence cost around 1.1 million. This cost is borne by the taxpayer, and it diverts much-needed funds from other areas such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure.Finally, the death penalty is inhumane and contradicts the idea that all human life is valuable. Capital punishment is a violation of the most fundamental human right - the right to life. The use of the death penalty sends a message that some lives are not worth protecting and undermines our moral values. As Mahatma Gandhi once said, An eye for an eye will only make .
