The Death Penalty

 Japan should abolish the death penalty. There are many advantages.
・We can avoid the false charge.
 DNA analysis is the dominant witness to pass the death sentence. However, we can't say it's  totally accurate. In 1992, two girls were killed in Fukuoka. The crime suspect(容疑者) "K" insisted his innocence but he was killed. The court tried DNA analyses three times, and they found that  the criminal's blood didn't much with K's at once. It was too late because K had been already killed.  K's family asking the retrial still now. I don't know who is the killer, but if K didn't kill the two girls, it means that the court killed a innocent person. The crime is called 飯塚事件. It's true that DNA technology is getting better and better and it's almost accurate, but it is NOT perfect. Also, the judge is NOT also perfect. Everybody makes mistakes, so nobody have any right to pass the death sentence.

・We can remove the executioners and courts' stress.
 Death penalty is conducted by human who are caring for the prisoners everyday. According to Toshio Sakamoto-who was an executioner says that the death penalty makes them stress and many executioners become depression(鬱病), so Japan should abolish capital punishment.
I absolutely agree with him. The Constitution establish "Everybody has right to live health and culturally"

Today, death penalty is minority. Many countries abolished it,but their society is kept safe. A lot of Japanese people who agree with the death penalty say about the families of vicims' feeling, but laws are not revenge. We must think seriously about public welfare and solve the case without killing people.

  4. I agree with you too. It doesn't stop crime, innocent people are sometimes killed, and allowing killers to live forever in prison, with hard work, is probably a harder punishment anyway.
