Death Penalty also known as Capital Punishment is the execution of a person by the state as punishment for a crime. The crimes which people are usually executed for are capital offenses or capital crimes. Some crimes that are put into these categories are rapists and murderers. The argument is based around is there any crime serious enough to make it necessary to execute someone and take away their life or could one simply pay for their crime by remaining in jail for the rest of their life.
Both of these issues have people taking both sides and have been a controversy for a long time and will most likely continue to be.
