argument essay(draft)

The abolishment of death penalty is always a controversial issue that human being has discussed for a long time. The advocate of abolishing death penalty says that we don’t have the right to determine others life. The opposition of abolishing penalty thinks those people deserve to be punished. In my opinion, I support that we should maintain the execution of death penalty.
First, in the aspect of victims, they have the right to ask for compensation. Although the death of criminals can’t change the fact but it’s still a way to console victims. Moreover, those people who commit crimes are responsible for what they had done.
Second, the death penalty can achieve the goal of crime deterrence. We haven’t repealed the death penalty yet, but the crime rate still high. If we revoke the death penalty, what can we depend on to deter from committing crimes. Besides, the regulation of the death penalty can also be a model for us to educate our children.
However, the opposition of this regulation considers the death penalty is immoral and we don’t have the right to deprive criminals’ right of living. About their opinion, I have some questions to ask them. If it’s immoral for us to determine criminals’ life, how they explain criminals’ crime. I think that they deserve it. They must take responsibility for their commitment.
Finally, the death penalty is the last method to prevent people from committing crimes. If people can control and restrain their desire to commit crimes, we don’t have to use this regulation to confine people and it won’t cause such a controversial issue.

You really have to work hard on your argumentative essay. It is not persuasive at all. You need more provement from some famous articles. Don't be sad, I know you can do things well, but you have to work hard and try your best.
