Bibliography

   The following is a very detailed, and thus very long, article concerning the United States' use of the death penalty over the years.
 
 

    Many people disagree with capital punishment. The United States, being our neighbors, have often had to put up with our way of doing things. This also means that we have to look at how their justice system works and accept it. We may not agree but there is nothing we can do to change tradition. The problem countries gace with the death penalty is making a bad judgement. There is always a chance that the judge will send an innocent man, or woman, to their death.
