Harsh methods include torture and capital punishment. And for all the atrocities they have done, i believe it will always be morally right to mete out harsh methods on those criminals. After all, i believe in an eye for an eye.
Many will argue that the benefits derived through capital punishment is meagre and serve no purpose. Anti-capital punishment fools argues that the dead cannot be resurrected even if the culprit pay for his price with his life, so why cost another life? Some argue about the possibility of executing the wrong suspect and most absurdly, human rights organisations fighting for the criminals' rights to live. The commited a henious crime and if the judiciary deem their crime to be punishable only by death, i feel it is only fair. If they jeopardise others' rights to live, why should we spare a thought for these criminals' right to live? I strongly support the use of capital punishment. it will serve as a strong deterrent to discourage people from commiting a particular crime. An example will be drug trafficking. In Singapore, trafficking drugs in or out of Singapore is punishable by the death penalty. There has been a signicant fall in the number of drug trafficking cases in Singapore. Moreover, the value of human life is that of another's huamn life, no less. Thus, i strongly feel that capital punishment is morally right and should be encouraged in all countries.
