Should you use the death plenty?
This is a highly debated topic nowadays and has been for a while. Is the death penalty too harsh? Is the death penalty the right punishment? In some cases, say a serial murderer, the death penalty is justified because they took or ruined multiple lives and is especially applicable if they feel no remorse. Honestly, there isn't exactly a right or wrong answer to the question of using the death penalty. Situations vary and people's minds also change.
Has anyone ever received the death penalty over marijuana in America?
No i do not believe so. However I do think that right after the stamp tax on it was made, when they first went to outlaw it someone what thrown in prison for over 50 years. wile possessing only a small amount.AnswerNo. The death penalty is only allowable for certain (capital) offenses. Currently, murder is the only crime for which states are actively using the death penalty as a punishment, although there has been some consideration given to giving the death penalty for rape.In the past, the death penalty was more common, and used for more crimes. Public hangings and lynchings were common through the civil war. However, marijuana was not illegal until long after the "civilization" of the death penalty.
Should the death penalty be eliminated by the federal government in the 38 states that use it?
Arguably, the federal government lacks the authority to prohibit states from imposing the death penalty. The U.S. Supreme court has ruled that states have the authority to impose the death penalty for certain crimes, and provided very stringent due process rights are followed. Unless the Supreme Court were to reverse this decision, any congressional action barring the states from using the death penalty in matters that involve only state law would likely be invalid.

Should the death penalty be a law in Canada?
There are more cons. It doesn't matter how much money death penalty vs. no death penalty costs, because you can't put a value on innocent human life. Killing the murderer won't bring the victim back, but using the death penalty will occasionally result in an innocent person being executed. Since the death penalty inevitably results in a net loss of innocent life it is unjustified. If it was possible to know 100% then I'd have no problem with the death penalty, but it's not possible. It actually costs more to kill the criminal than to keep the criminal in prison for life. At least in Canada during the late 50s into the 60s most people were against the death penalty, but that has changed a great deal now. Most Canadians are for the death penalty if it is warranted to fit the crime of taking another's life. Also keeping prisoners costs the tax payers a great deal of money, so murders are of no use to society. Canada is fighting for stricter laws all the way around and not just including murder.
