The death penalty is the penalty method for the deprivation of the criminal’s life.It is including Lethal Injection, Electrocution, Gas Chamber, Firing Squad, Hanging. Nowadays, the topic of it is the right time to abolish death penalty is becoming more and more popular. Some people believed that it is the right time to abolish death penalty. They think many countries abolished the death penalty; USA should do the same. While others think that we should not to abolish death penalty due to lots of reasons.
First, from the picture above we can clearly see that the majority of states still agree to enforce death penalty. Most people have a deep-rooted fear of lawlessness and chaos. Citizens desire a strong government that maintain law and order and promptly and forcefully metes of severe punishment to law breaker. From the chart below we can tell that 
for murder. dealth penalty is a little bit of lower than life without parole & restitution. However, the rate is still high. Clearly, It is necessary to maintain social stability with the death penalty.
Second, the main reason is appease effect. The biggest effect of the death penalty is to appease the victim. According to deathpenalty web, “The death penalty is often justified in the name of the victim’s families” (Parents).The death penalty is a serious offense maiming criminals. They not only deeply hurt the families of victims, but also caused a very bad social impact. Appease refers to the victims and their relatives. For the individual, the execution of the death penalty is the respect for the victim’s life and the emotional remedy, and The murderer bring harm to the victim and the victim’s family It will make them desperate, even a family may be destroyed. So, under the existing conditions, if law does not sentenced to death, government cannot appease the victim and the victim’s family. The death penalty is punishment that the serious prisoner should get, the murderer killed the others with the cruel means should be executed. According to sina web, “The former Chief of Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Justice Wen Qiang was executed on July 7. The Supreme Court firmly believes that he accepted huge amount of bribes, the circumstances are serious and causes great social harm” (Head). The news was cheered by local people for a long time, especially the innocent people he has persecution.
Third, the main reason is deterrent. Death penalty has great deterrent effect on those potential criminals. May be it worked too well. Th graph above shows that the life span of prisoners in a state with death penalty is lower than without death penalty. The more severe the criminal law, the more frightened of potential criminals. According to Death for Business Criminals, “Presents varying views on whether those convicted of economic-related crimes in China deserve capital punishment. Necessity of retaining the death penalty for nonviolent criminals jeopardizing national security; Value of the death penalty as a deterrent for grafters and the corrupt; Relationship between the death penalty and corruption” ( Death). When a murderer was sentenced to death, the other person heard the news and they considered the consequences when he was impulsive. The deterrent of the death penalty is very important. Only the fear of death can deter criminals and maintain social stability. ( Another Look At The Deterrent Effect Of Death Penalty, )
Above all, death penalty is still necessary in our society.

I’m a person with a very strong scene of justice. To me, some of the criminal such as rapist or intentional murderer, they just does not deserve living in this world. However, if you execute all of these bad guys, it might lead to a lower solving rate of crime because people know even they talk they won’t gain anything. It just another moral/ethical trap.
However, I’m not against your article–it’s well organized, full of charts and diagrams really help me to understand your point of view. death penalty has to be exist.
When I read this blog title, I believed that this is really more of an opinionated question, so I was interested to see how you discussed this with a scientific perspective. The graphs do show a lot of information, but I would have liked to see a study. Although, I don’t really know how someone could do a study that would answer if the death penalty is justifiable or not. Maybe people should take a poll if people believe the death penalty is the right thing to do or not.
The topic you posted is more like a moral topic or an ethical topic. The death penalty is necessary for our society because it threating the criminals for severe consequences, and it repay the victim’s families for whoever died in the accident or murders.
In you article, the char t and the data are provided, the reasons are really logical. For future studies, you can discuss this topic by separating into different regions with different cultures.
In the link below, I posts the death penalty in the world, and how does the majority of the people think about it.

I am actually very passionate about this topic and disagree with you completely. I think the death penalty is costly, inconvenient and serves no point in the system. I think this (http://works.bepress.com/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1183&context=john_donohue&sei-redir=1&referer=http%3A%2F%2Fscholar.google.com%2Fscholar%3Fq%3Ddeath%2Bpenalty%2Binnocent%26btnG%3D%26hl%3Den%26as_sdt%3D0%252C39%26as_ylo%3D2015#search=%22death%20penalty%20innocent%22) article does a great job of disproving the very common belief of deterrence and there is actually very little significant data. It also points out how costly and lengthy the whole process is. In California, old age and suicide are more common of those on death row than the death penalty is because it is years and years of debate and analysis and the individual in seclusion from society for a majority of the time.
