    If I was allowed to use pronouns, emotive & colloquial language, that essay would have read a whole lot differently.

    Capital punishment only works if the punishment occurs in a timely manner, given the prison environment especially for pedophiles I believe capital punishment to be a less severe sentence than life.
    If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.

    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.

    I had to have my German Shepard put down, due to advanced Gastric cancer, A shot of pain killer and the potassium chloride, he was gone before he knew it, lights out. Seems like a pretty good way to go. I would sure prefer it to prison.

    What does the phrase "Guilty beyond a reasonable doubt" mean to you?

    That's an easy one.

    1. Eye Witness(s)
    2. DNA
    3. Motive
    4. Possession of victim's belongings
    5. The accused's belongings at the scene

    Give me 3 or more of those and I'll give you a guilty verdict.
    But in a rape case I'd probably return a guilty verdict from just DNA alone and a believable testimony from the victim.
