Today's Essential Question: 


Does using the swift absolute punishment further the efforts of the revolution or make people want to not be involved?____________________________________________________________________________

Journal Topic: The Citizens of Calif are considering abolishing the death penalty. They will look at if its constitutional ( cruel and unusual punishment ). In France, after the revolution began the use of a guillotine to exact retribution on enemies of the state was used quite frequently.
What is your opinion about the death penalty in the USA? Should it be used? if so, what types of crimes would qualify for the death penalty? What about confessions? If a person confesses to a heinous crime, does that change anything?
If you selected that the death penalty should not be used (under any circumstance) what type of punishment would you advocate? If life in prison, under what circumstances (such as solitary confinement) What would deter the "life in prison" person from continuing to commit bad acts?
