Question

Do you think the death penalty deters crime? Why it why not?

Answer 1

I think it depends on what the person did and how old they were and how old was the victim but honestly I think the family should be able to determine if the person should get the death penalty

Answer 2

I personally do not think that it deters crime. The death penalty is rarely used unless a criminal has committed an incredibly deadly offense. Due to the fact that it is so rare, I don't believe that it deters crime because most criminals are not worried about receiving the death penalty.
