My Opinion: Capital Punishment

My opinion on capital punishment is that it is stupid and barbaric. What exactly does it show? I'm mean if you kill them it doesn't bring the people they killed back to life does it, nor does it make the death any less painful. I for one hate the shedding of human blood. To kill a murder is showing it is alright to kill for revenge in my opinion. Capital punishment has changed a lot over the years. it has been hanging, shooting squad, and lethal injection. It is stupid.

Innocent or Guilty?

I believe that Steve is guilty because in the beginning of the book he was trying to convince himself he was innocent. Why would an innocent person do that? I believe that he didn't mean for Mr. Nesbitt to die but if he didn't give the signal he wouldn't have died. Also if he was innocent why would he be trying to clear his mind? I mean if you're innocent you don't need to convince yourself that you're innocent. To me it's just common sense. That's why I believe that he is guilty.

21 years 3 mos.

If I went to jail for 21 years and 3 months when I get out I would be 36 years and 5 months old if I got out. I probably get killed though but if I did get out I would get a hold of a friend to stay with until I get a place to stay I would probably get a low paying job because I couldn't go to college. I actually would do another crime to go back in because there would be nothing on the outside for me anymore. And that's what would happen if I went to jail for 21 years and 3 months
