    The death penalty‚ also known as capital punishment‚ is where an individual is put to death by the government for a crime they have committed. The death penalty is an ineffective and cruel response to a violent crime. The "eye for an eye" mentality will never solve anything. A revenge philosophy certainly leads to an endless cycle of violence. It is important to send a message to society that striking back at your enemy purely for revenge will always make matters worse. We teach children very early

    the death penalty is very important in that we use it as a tool in fighting violent pre-meditated murder. One big downside to the death penalty is the possibility that innocent men and women will be put to death. Also financial cost to tax payers of capital punishment is several times that of housing the perpetrator in prison. The punishment relating to this crime is quite fair‚ although I believe there are many cases in that a person has committed murder but has not received the death penalty for

    The death penalty is the punishment of execution‚ administered to someone legally convicted of a capital crime. At first this seems like a justifiable punishment‚ especially for a capital crime such as first-degree murder‚ genocide‚ treason‚ and espionage. Yet I can name at least four more reasons why the death penalty can be opposed‚ added on to the reasons Mr. Moore stated of “the death penalty is far more expensive than life imprisonment without parole; the death penalty is not a deterrent to

    I’ve encountered an ethical dilemma situation in my recent capstone clinical. My clinical preceptor and I caught in the concepts of the principles of autonomy‚ veracity‚ and nonmalifecence. This occurred when we provided nursing service to a 30-years-old male patient who was taken to the ED as a post-code patient. The EMS team arrived in the scene and initiated CPR and defibrillated a client (on the floor of his room). The client ended up in the ICU with a diagnosis of hypoxic- anoxic injury (HAI)
