I am writing a research paper on the death penalty I just need a thesis statement for or against the death penalty any ideas and which would be easier to right on against or for it?
A compelling thesis statement against the death penalty could be: "The death penalty is an ineffective deterrent to crime, often applied unfairly and disproportionately, and poses a significant risk of wrongful execution, making it a morally and ethically indefensible practice." Writing against the death penalty might be easier, as there are numerous studies and arguments highlighting its flaws, including issues of justice, human rights, and the potential for mistakes in the judicial system.

What are some reasons to be against death penalty?
In my opinion I think that the death penalty doesnt help at all in any way possible. Because if you are sentenced to the death penalty and you were to die in the electric chair, would it teach you anything or would you care if you were dieing because it would be instant death and you don't feel anything. It wouldn't teach you anything and for one, if you were for example, in a high security prison vault with no social contact to the outside world, would that be a better and more reasonable punishment for you would be living through what you did and would never do that again. Also, other people would learn that they would have to be put through that forever if they were caught and that would scare off people and the crimes would go down. Right now, the death penalty isn't scaring off any criminals. In fact, the crimes in America are going UP fast and gangs are breaking out. Also, the death penalty cost over 180 million just to kill 5 people with the electric chair. That money ends up being paid back by regular peoples TAX money. If we were to put the criminals in prison, we would be saving around $240 million. And that money could go to crime fields and to the FBI or CIA or Police to search and stop crimes from happening. Bear in mind that the death penalty takes away a persons life though it doesnt help anyone does it? "Killing a killer is killing" "If we are against abortion, how can we be for the death penalty?" Hope that helped!
