...Mrs. Lalaine M. Dulanas Math Teacher Mrs. Lalaine M. Dulanas Math Teacher Jacquelyn Eya Siangco Fourth Year- D Jacquelyn Eya Siangco Fourth Year- D 3rd Grading 3rd Grading Reflection Reflection For me math is not really an easy subject. You need a lot of patience, focus and also courage. Some people doesn’t need to spend a lot of their time studying math because they were really good at it but in my case I realize that I was not really got at this subject so I need to double or even triple my time to understand more and to learn more. Math also needs time to understand. You need to spend your time and also effort to get want you want because if you work hard fot it you have the chance to get what you work hard for. It was just some of the people easily gave up on this subject. There was never been a winner on those who gave up. If you want to learn you must work for it. If you want to understand do some effort. I consider myself as a pessimistic person. I hate facing problems because I think I cannot solved it alone. I was so dependent with other persons most especially my bestfriend since my mother was gone and maybe that’s the reason why I don’t love math but now I’ve realize that life is just like a unsolved problem. You need to work for it, you need to do some efforts, you must dig deeper to get the solutions and to solved the problems. For me math is not really an easy subject. You need a lot of patience, focus and also courage. Some people doesn’t need...

...Capital Punishment: Why the Death Penalty is Morally Permissible Karina Morgan April 13, 2010 Professor Mark Reynolds PHI 206 Sec. 04 Word Count: 1,910 Syllogism for Argument: 1. Every human has a right to life 2. But this right is not absolute because a person’s life can be overridden for good reasons 3. So the right of life does not hold in every situation no matter what 4. One of these situations includes taking the life of another innocent human 5. Therefore, it is morally permissible to set the right to life aside, and use the death penalty, if they took the life of an innocent human. Outline I. The Death Penalty -Thesis- Although all humans have the right to life, there are certain situations that can overrule this right, such as taking the life of an innocent human. Since the right of life does not hold in every situation and if an innocent human’s life is taken, then it is morally permissible to set the right to life aside and use the death penalty on the person who committed murder. II. Pro-Death Penalty A. Retribution a. The death penalty is the best way in order to serve justice to convicted murderers of innocent people. b. The families and friends of victims will feel more secure if justice is served. c.

...Level 6 Name Teacher Benefits of Capital Punishment In order to understand this topic is important to define ´´Capital punishment´´, which is also called death penalty, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica is ´´the execution of an offender sentenced to death after conviction by a court of law of a criminal offense´´ published on Apr. 25, 2008. This type of punishment has been used for many years, in almost all societies and religions. In most countries (Saudi Arabia, Africa, Somalia, and United States) this count of method it is reserved from those who commit murder, treason, but there are other countries where it is applied for those who commit sexual felonies, such as rape, incest, pedophilia, adultery. On the other hand, crimes as drug traffic are considered capital punishment as well. In China, human trafficking, and other corruption cases lead to the death penalty. In this context, there are many people who are against capital punishment, as said by the Abolitionists, death penalty or capital punishment is not only is an act of violence but also a crime, it is considered an inhumane act tolerating the killing of another human being. In fact, it is intricate that the government allows this type of punishment since is taking away the life of a human being as a solution to fight against crime and violence. They argue that violence should never be the answer for the problems that the society is going through. Although, the society that we are living now is full of...

...Justin Jernigan 12/6/2013 Documented Argument Essay The debate on whether or whether not the death penalty is effective or even constitutional has been going on since the beginning of it. A lot of people believe “eye for an eye” and others believe that it dance on a thin line of human rights, serves no real purpose, and is a waste of money. Since the start of the death penalty, people thought that it was put in place to make an example out of people, scare people from committing crimes, and eventually stop it but studies show that the death penalty is only wasting tax payer’s money because it has neither stopped nor slowed crime. The death penalty is cruel and unusual punishment and doesn’t do anything to right the wrong of the convicted nor bring back or give the victim peace. Also what about the innocent people that were convicted and sentenced to death, you can’t make it right. So how can the death penalty be effective and constitutional if crime rates are still high, an innocent person can be killed, and when tax payers have to come out of pocket to kill a human being? It can’t and it isn’t constitutional. People that support the death penalty say that it is designed for future criminals who are thinking about committing harsh despicable crimes most likely murders, rape, etc. I can’t agree with this because criminals do not think about what they’re doing when they do it most of the time or even might not care what the consequences are. There is research that will prove...

...Death Penalty or Life in Prison Sierra Brattain Southwestern Michigan College Death Penalty or Life in Prison Death Penalty I began my research by looking into the death penalty or also known as capital punishment. The death penalty is the action of executing a person who has committed an illegal act equivalent to death. Crimes punishable by death vary depending on the state; some include murder, sexual assault, treason, and other serious capital crimes (“Crimes Punishable”, 2011). There are many different outlooks on the death penalty; some in favor of the death penalty believe it is the ultimate balance between good and evil and they often use the phrase, “an eye, for an eye.” By using death as punishment they can assure society that the offender cannot commit another crime. Also that it can deter people from committing violent crimes, with the reasoning of, if someone believes they will lose their life over an action they will usually choose not to perform the act. On contrast, those who oppose believe the death penalty is “a waste of life.” Many keep faith that everyone who may have committed a crime punishable by death can be rehabilitated, and could serve a purpose in society. Furthermore the death penalty takes the value away from life in society’s eyes, and causes it to seem unimportant. It is also strongly argued that the death penalty is unjustified because it can be dispensed upon the innocent. “Since 1900, 350 people have been wrongly convicted of homicide...

...book of romans. The first verse says “Everyone is a sinner” meaning it is ok to sin all humans will at some point. This doesn’t make sinning ok; it only means that it’s only natural too. The second verse says that “The price of sin is death” which means the penalty of sin is death. Christ paid the penalty for our sin. We all deserve death, which is the ultimate penalty for sin. Everyone will pay for his sin unless he comes to Christ, who has paid the price for our sin with His blood which is stated in the third verse as well. The fourth verse states that “We can receive salvation and eternal life through Jesus Christ” which means if you put your trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and make Him the Master, the Boss of your life, you will live forever. God loves you and wants you to enjoy peace and life, today and eternally. God doesn't hate you, but he hates sin. He loved you before you were born. He knew you'd need a Savior and sent His only Son Jesus to die in your place. Christ, who was without sin became a sin sacrifice for you. The final stated that “salivation through Jesus brings us into a relationship with God makes us righteous in his eyes”. The advantage of these verses is that they are all in the book of Romans. Disadvantages are that there are a lot of versions of Roma Road with small changes in scripture but all together the message is the same, when sharing the gospel that may confuse people. Still the method is simple and a good way to explain how God provided...

...punishment is the legal process whereby a person is put to death by the state, as a means of punishment for having committed a capital crime. In this essay, I will discuss some of the main advantages and disadvantages of capital punishment and whether capital punishment is a morally and ethically viable approach to punishment. I hold a firmly retentionist position and believe that the most just and fitting punishment for one who has committed a capital offence would be the death penalty. I will support my position with statistics showing that capital punishment has successfully been used to deter people from committing capital crimes. As well, I will discuss various philosophies regarding the morals of execution and punishment in general. My goal in writing this paper is not to force abolitionist thinkers to change their position with regards to capital punishment, but rather to show abolitionist thinkers that there is another way to look at capital punishment. Two of the main principles that are used to support the retentionist philosophy are deterrence and retributivism. Deterrence is the theory that the death penalty is morally just because it will deter would-be murderers from committing capital crimes, which carry a sentence of execution. Retributivism is the idea that criminals should be punished because they deserve to be punished, a robber must return what he stole while a murderer deserves to be put to death for having killed someone. The concept of deterrence is based...

...Classism and Criminal Justice Draft 2 Justice is a term that we hear every day and accept although many of us have skepticism as to what it truly means. In general, justice is the idea of righteousness and equality. In regards to society’s views on how “just” the criminal justice system is, we always incorporate the “ism’s”: Racism, sexism and classism, to demonstrate some of the pitfalls that the system has. Though it is obvious that all of these societal differences play a large role in the criminal justice process, I will focus on classism. Classism is the discrimination against a group or individual based on social and economic status. Classism is one of those “ism’s” that occurs more than we notice and sometimes, we may confuse it with things like racism or sexism. Classism, in my opinion, plays a larger role in the criminal justice system as opposed to the other forms of discriminatory practices. In particular, class largely comes into play during the sentencing process. Many authors argue that factors outside of class play a more important role, but I believe that there needs to be more attention paid to the role that class plays in targeting and the sentencing process in the criminal justice system. In order to understand the role that class plays in the sentencing process, we must, first, look at the role that it plays before the criminal reaches the day of sentencing. There are a plethora of publications that speak on profiling and actuarial methods which get people...

...at the role that it plays before the criminal reaches the day of sentencing. There are a plethora of publications that speak on profiling and actuarial methods which get people into the system. Though these are two large proponents of the discriminatory acts that exist within the confines of the criminal justice system, it does not begin with these institutionalized methods. The first instances of discrimination, which leads to all of the other forms within the system, are the laws and crime control policies that are implemented that, in some instances, are set up in favor of the rich and in opposition to the poor. In Marxist criminology, one of the fundamental principles is that the “ruling class” puts all of the other classes at a disadvantage. This is done...
