POSITION PAPER
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
(Death Penalty: Not Favor)
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
This is one of the most common issues debated by the senators of the Philippines
or even around the world. Death penalty aims to execute person who are
committed to as a suspect of killing and rape which is against human rights but
this penalties as well is against human rights.
All of the families of raped victims and the victims of injustice killings are for sure
in favor of this kind of penalty. But how about the family of the accused suspect
of such crime, maybe the accused suspect is being accused of a crimes which he
did not do. I want to know, no, every people in this world want know why this
kind of punishment must be approved. What will this penalty contribute to lessen
inhuman crimes, while this punishment is also inhuman?
Bayan Muna Representative Crispin Beltran says, in the current state, the system
of justice in the country is fit to carry out the death penalty. There are too many
flaws in the justice system, and the balance is often tipped in favor of the rich and
the influential.
The poor, being unable to pay for the services of good lawyers, are often left at
the mercy of unscrupulous judges or to the weaknesses of the system itself.
According to Mr. Beltran, the poor cannot afford to have good lawyers that may
defend himself from accusations of heinous crimes he did, but think of first the
reasons why does this unfortunate people commit such heinous crimes.
Most people who experience poverty, no work, and alcohol and drug abuse are all
connected in explaining why people commit crimes; rape, user and pusher of ille
gal drugs, and other crimes that is against human rights.
My point here is, these people can make no crimes which are inhuman if these
peoplehave things to do, like having work. If the government only gives these peo
ple something to be busy with, they will not commit such heinous crimes.
There are many methods of death penalty but it is still inhuman. Otherwise, if the
death penalty will be not approve, where is the justice in our country?
I understand that the death penalty is against human rights, but how about those
people that can be a victim of rape, andthese possible suspect of heinous crimes
can have a better life.
I, as one of the people of the country of the Philippines, is not against death penal
ty. Ifthese is the only and possible way to lessen the criminals, to make them fear
of making crimes.But I only wish that the current government will support every
people that resides in thiscountry, so that we can prevent unexpected number of
people that may be executed to such penalty.
Support in a way of, giving some lectures every month or maybe once a year of
what arethe available work a person can enter to be busy with, free scholarship
for some unfortunatechildren that cannot afford to enter any school.Death penalt
y is against every human’s right yet we must think of the positive results
these can bring to us.
