I initially made a claim like that in the first one I did (the unit consisted of 3 assignments) Unfortunately I couldn't find anything to reference it to, so I lost some marks. I made an insinuation that capital punishment can be the most dignifying thing for some people, because can you imagine how a rapist or pedophile would spend their time in jail? This was of course an attempt to defend the far-flung claim that capital punishment is barbaric. Kinda like putting a sick animal out of their misery I guess.
