Capital Punishment

Captial punishment has been used by almost every culture in the world. Execution has been in existance almost as long as people have populated the Earth and has been controversial ever since. From Old Testament Hebrew history and Heian period Japan to the present day United States, there have been those in favor and those against the death penalty. Many different methods have been used for the death penalty, and over the years the methods used have become more humane but more expensive.
