the death penalty or "Capital Punishment" is the punishment of condemning a convict to death for a crime, usually murder; typically by lethal injection. (a mixture of 2 deadly toxins and 1 anesthetic.) the anesthetic is administered first and you are essentially put to sleep before the process begins. next you are given an extremely powerful muscular relaxant called sodium tripenathol which causes paralysis. potassium chloride is one of the other poisonous chemical and causes fluctuation in the heartbeat causing cardiac arrest.
there are many other forms of execution such as: hanging, burning at the stake, decapitation, firing squad, gas chamber, crusifixtion (practiced mainly by the Romans in biblical times), the "iron maiden", being pulled apart limb by limb (not sure what that's called...) and, the electric chair.

Actually, opinions on this vary. But the tendency, nowadays, is that a majority of people think that the death penalty is uncivilized.

For further arguments, both for and against the death penalty, I suggest you consult the Wikipedia article on "Death penalty".
