Perhaps the most heated argument across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an 【C1】______ deterrent to murder, 【C2】______ others think there is no enough proof that the death penalty reduces the number of murders. The argument【C3】______by those opposed to the death penalty is that it is cruel and inhuman【C4】______, and that it is of 【C5】______effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.
In our opinion, the death penalty is a(n)【C6】______ action. There have always been those【C7】______persons in every society who made terrible crimes 【C8】______ recorded history. But some are more dangerous than others. For example, it is one thing to【C9】______ the life of another in time of blind anger, but quite【C10】______ to coldly plot and 【C11】______ the murder of one or more people in the style of a【C12】______. Thus, murder, like all other crimes, is a(n)【C13】______ of different degree. While it could be argued that the criminal in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the【C14】______type murderer.
The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be【C15】______to discussion. But the【C16】______evidence shows that people believe that the death penalty protects them. From 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was 【C17】______ imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100, 000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has been done only once, and the murder rate has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100, 000
population. The sharp【C18】______in the state’s murder rate, which began when killings stopped, is no【C19】______. If the law about death penalty is【C20】______, more people will be murdered.
