In general, I believe that death is something none of us want. In fact, it is something we don’t even like to talk about. When death takes place naturally, it is a process beyond our control to stop, but when death is willfully and deliberately brought about, it is very unfortunate. Mark Costanzo believes that lethal injection is probably the most in-humane way of killing prisoners. Costanzo states that he is opposed to the death penalty in all of it’s forms, no matter how awful the crime or how savage the criminal. The death penalty to me gives us as a society absolutely no answer. We kill the person, never allowing them the chance to speak to someone on why they did what they did which leaves us all in question. Costanzo contends that it is time for this country to reconsider the costs and consequences of the death penalty. He also considers whether the death penalty is cheaper than life imprisonment, is fairly applied, or is a deterrent to potential murderers.
