The death penalty continues to be a topic that can generate strong feelings and opinions. Opinions can vary from strongly in favor or against to undecided. In your initial post, state yourthoughts on the issue, (pro – con or undecided). In your post, you discussion should include, but is not limited to, the issues of deterrence, methods used for executions, types of crimes, when it should be used, racial equity, should it be used for juveniles, appeals, and cost.

Attach evidence that supports your position. For example, if you believe that the death penalty is a “deterrent,” submit evidence that supports your position. Likewise, if a fellow classmate states a position and you have evidence that contradicts their position, attach your evidence as part of your reply.
