Could you correct it for me, please?


Death penalty

In my opinion, this sort of punishment, the death penalty or capital punishment, should be prohibited all over the world. This punishment is too strict for everyone, even the worst criminal, who killed too many people or committed any other serious crime.
We should hope that those who commit crimes will learn to live politely and well after their imprisonment. Nonetheless, many people share sceptical opinion on this topic. For example, even I don’t believe that such sort of “reformation“ (being in terrible jails) can really achieve its target, make the criminals think different. However, some of them, perhaps, really realize the meaning of life not until in the prison.
If we look at this much discussed topic, whether to ban or not to ban this kind of punishment, from the other side, we can see that not a single act of killing criminals is wrong – sometimes also innocent people may be considered criminals, may be accused of committing some crime. Is it fair? Of course it isn’t; I belive this simple question could answer even just a little child. We can never be sure that an arrested person is really guilty! There has been many cases of people who had to stay a long time in prison because noone believed they were really innocent. It must be a very horrific experience in their lives and it must affect them forever, I think. It is a huge injustice to arrest such people, what even if they were sentenced to death penatly? We could never take their lives back, then.
