Capital Punishment and the Constitution

Capital Punishment and the Constitution

Capital Punishment and the Constitution
		Capital punishment is unconstitutional and does not deter crime. A government that continues to perform these terrible punishments has only one justification: that they are protecting its citizens. However, at the same time, the government is not following the constitution and acting as a hypocrite. 
	The Constitution of the United States clearly states that nobody shall be subjected to cruel or unusual punishment. Supporters of the death penalty are quick to say that lethal injection is humane and neither cruel or unusual. However, most people do not know what is involved in lethal injection. 
	Three injections are administered. The first injection is sodium pentothal to make the inmate unconscious. The next injection is pavulon, which paralyzes the muscles and stops breathing. Lastly, potassium chloride is injected to stop the heart. 
	Observers cannot tell if the inmate is going through any pain at all. The injections that are given paralyze muscles. If the criminal experiences trauma, there would be no way of anyone telling.
	Few states still have a firing squad, gas chamber, or even hanging, as a means of execution. There are currently nine states in the U.S. that use the electric chair. There have been instances
