Cases occur every second, whether in the country or worldwide, causing people to question justice and bringing problems and suffering, particularly for victims. The death penalty is carried out using an electric chair, where proven suspects or criminals are executed by electricity within seconds. Being predominantly Catholic, the Philippines strictly upholds moral standards.
As a teenager, I am confronted with the challenging choice of whether or not to endorse the death penalty. Although my parents consistently emphasize the value and sanctity of life, the growing amount of unresolved crimes has influenced me towards supporting its execution. I strongly believe that it is imperative to surpass our conventional approaches and take decisive measures. If accepting or embracing this idea is unattainable, I sincerely desire a revision or alteration of our constitutional laws.
The issue of minimum age for imprisonment is urgent because children as young as 10 are engaging in criminal activities without facing any consequences, leading to a disregard for laws. It is crucial for our leaders to take decisive measures to tackle this problem. As a student, I am dedicated to fully supporting their decisions.
