Capital punishment

Capital punishment

Introduction
Capital punishment is the execution of someone as punishment. Capital punishment can only be executed by a state, if any other organization would kill someone it’d be murder. In the western world, capital punishment has been abolished almost everywhere. Countries that do <em>still </em>execute capital punishment are for example Iran, Thailand, Pakistan and China. From <em>Out of </em>all <em>of the</em> countries in the world, China executes <em>the</em> most people. However, China doesn’t divulge any figures, so these numbers are based on estimates. There’s only one big exception: the United States. The US is the only western country that still hasn’t abolished capital punishment.

Controversial
Capital punishment is controversial, <em>and </em>opinions differ widely. Supporters say that if you kill someone, you don’t deserve to live. Besides that, it deters people from killing someone, because they know it <em>they </em>could pay for it with their lives. It should also provide closure to the victims’ families. How can a family’s vengeance better be subdued?
Opponents argue that life is so valuable that even the worst criminals have the right to live. It’s often said that you can’t teach that killing is wrong by killing. Is it even a necessary thing, <em>to </em>killing murderers?

US/NL
Why <em>How </em>can a country that calls itself leading in freedom and human rights have not <em>have</em> abolished capital punishment? A country <em>Countries </em>like The Netherlands did that many years ago. The US is a much more liberal country. American Dream means in fact that you shouldn’t rely on other people, but fight to get to the top yourself. In many ways the US is conservative, even though that’s changing. People can carry guns and when you lose your job, you shouldn’t count on the government to help you much.

Before midnight on s<em></em><em>S</em>unday

Sunday is almost over in Japan.  I should organize that I got <em>have </em>to learn English in this week.  I'm going to write and sort <em>out my</em> notebook a little <em>few </em>hours from now.

English education

In Japan, English is a compulsory subject. Therefore, almost all Japanese have to study English for 6 ~ <em>to </em>10 years (it depends a <em>on the </em>person). However, I think we are bad at it compared with foreigners. Actually, ordinary Japanese can't speak English at all (I'm one of them). Maybe it's because of English education in Japan. We always focus on grammar, but it's not that we are good at grammar. And teachers only teach <em>us</em> how to pass the exam. I think European people have high ability of <em>are good at </em>language<em>s</em>. I'm just curious <em>about</em> how they study languages.

This is love :)

When she erased some important files from a computer by mistake, I didn't say a word to her, but I just made those files again.

When I got a message about withdrawing my money for buying shoes which by the way were fifth<em>(?)</em> for the last six months, I didn't say anything to her either.

When she broke a telephone which was bought less than a month ago, I clenched my teeth and I said to her that it was okay and she shoudn't be worrying about it.

But when she ate my favorite gummy bears <em>(That's what they're normally called)</em>, which I put away that morning for myself, I coudn't stand it. That's all. Enough. I can't stand it anymore. I'm going...going to a shop <em>(store)</em> to buy more. THIS IS LOVE :))
