Death or jail? The big question of Chilean justice

Sometimes unfortunate events happen that make us doubt the capital punishment. People are asking for real justice, instead of short punishments. It is common for those affected wish to kill with his bare hands. So some people think that the capital punishment is a good solution. But I think that before killing criminals with his own hands, must have lasting punishment for offenders.

The pros and cons of the death penalty are the same as other ethical debates such as abortion and euthanasia, because it jeopardizes the lives of people, even evil. Implacable convictions serve as a lesson for criminals. The disadvantage is, it is confident that the capital punishment reduces crime? Before time talking about tough sentences, one must first solve the problem of "revolving door" of justice.

In this case, the revolving door is the recidivism of offenders. In other words, those who commit crimes again after they are released and return to the streets as if nothing had happened. Then re-offend, go to jail and leave shortly thereafter. It's the big problem with the government and has not been resolved. So the capital punishment is a debate that has gained strength: for the simple sentences previously defended useless now.

I was robbed a couple of years ago. But fortunately I have not suffered violent assaults, but it has been for my lack of attention. But I transit through the streets in fear, because I know someone is waiting for an oversight on my part to assail. Sometimes I take things of value, such as laptop, camera, cell phone, documents. I do not want to spend a robbery, but I do not know that I am free to be the victim of a crime. That I know the revolving door is a problem of every day.
