Description
According to the “deterrence theory,” we are all latent killers, and the death penalty is necessary to not only kill the murderer but also to kill the idea of killing in others. It’s as if humanity would suddenly turn into monsters if we abolished the death penalty! Perhaps we would agree with this “if human nature were different,” but humans are not controlled by a single idea or a single energy. Human beings are a stage for conflicting forces, clashing energies, various fluctuations, and sudden shifts, even within themselves. Some murders occur suddenly due to a volatile situation, and their perpetrators never expected that they might one day kill. For example, no one can retain the image of a severed, dripping head in their memory for a lifetime, especially after executions moved from public squares to secret prisons, even though one of the conditions for the effectiveness of the “deterrent example” of the death penalty is that it be public!
