Hello we are Omar and Pep and we are going talk about the capital punishment. Capital punishment, or the death penalty is the sentence of death upon a person by judicial process as a punishment for as offence.

HISTORY
Capital punishment existed since the beggining of the humanity history. In the past, when one of person of a tribe kill another person  without reason, the tribe condemn the murder and kill him.
In the medieval age in the majority of the countries there was a very hard executions like burn, hurt him...
But, in the XVIII century in France appeared the gillotine, a new form to kill but the victim doesn't suffers.
In the same years in Spain appeared the garrote bil that consit of strangle the victim.
This form is very hard because the vicdtim note that he is dying.
Actually, the majority of the countries death penalty are banned. But, in the other countries like USA are lega. Also, the majority countries in Africa are legal in extremetely situations.
In the majority states of USA, capital punishment is legal but in some states in the North are banned.

COUNTRIES WHERE CAPITAL PUNISHMENT ARE LEGAL

China
In China exist when you are a murder or when you are a traficker. This is the country where are more executions. If you kill another person when you are a minor the executions doesn't apply. In Hong Kong and Macau the executions are banned because  doesn't have the same legislation. In this country is where the capital punishments are faster and exist two forms to kill.
the first form is shooting. Consist of a shot in your head, thats produced an instantaneous dead.
The second form to kil is letal injection. The first time that applied this forms was in 1997.

Guatemala
In this country capital punishment were banned but in 2008 the most importants politiscians party wanted that the executions were legal because in this country there are a lot of violence and murders. With this votes, the death penalty were legal. Lately amnisty international say to government president that outlaw capital punishment. Actually, the executions are legal but don't apply it.

Japan
Capital punishment is legal in Japan. The only crimes for wich capital punishment is statutory are omicide and treason. Beginning about fourth century, Japan became increasngly influenced by the chinese judicial system, and gradually adopted a system of diferrent punishment for different crimes, including the death penalty. Japanese death row inmates are imprisioned inside the detention centers of Sapporo, Sendai, Tokyo,Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima and Fukuoka. Japan have one form to kill: Executions are carried out by hanging the chamber within the detention center.
When a death order has been issued, the condemned prisoner is informed in the morning of his or her execution.
United States
In United States is legal for most of country. Death penalty apliqued for aggravated murder and more rarely for felony murder. The first recorded death sentence in the Bristish North American colonies was carried out in 1608 on Captain George Kendall, Spanish government. Crimes subject to the dead penalty vary by jurisdiction.All crime, although most jurisdictions require aggravating circumstances. Treason is a capital offense in several jurisdictions.
Other capital crimes include: the use of a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death, espionage, terrorism, certain violations of the Genva Conventions that result in the death of one or more persons.
In United States exist actually four forms to kill: electrocution, shooting, lethal gas and hanging. The death more recent is when kill Pasul Powell in March of 2010 with electrocution.

OPINIONS FOR DIFFERENTS PERSONS

Alberto Iniesta, bishop of Madrid: I am against the death penalty. Like chrstian I believe that every human life is sacred, because it comes from God. I think the arguments against it are based on is need to restrain evil. I think in practice this isn't done. I am against the death penalty as well as in the case of an error there is no possibility to correct it. Society should not be like the criminal. Should cure a one member sick before kill he.

Julio Caro Baroja anthropologist and historian: I think that is in a time of violence and agression as we are living, make all possible campaigns to ensure the security that all people we are less aggressive and less violent os something that should be supported. All natural demand the abolition of the deat penalty now may seem utopian, but it is also trues that the utopias of the past arise realities.

Carlos Garcia Valdes, Lawyer and Teacher of Criminal Law: I am against of the death penalty in an active way, in my books and in my university activity. I base this on two reasons: first, the global humanitarian sentiment, that is, one reason might be called unscientific. Secondly, the study for many years this problem has convinced me that the death penalty serves to contain crime. To confirm the last satetemn I refer to the British statistics published in 1954.

PERSONAL OPINION
We thinking that is a madness because when one person kill another person, the solution not is kill, the solution os rehabilitate this person, if he don't want be rehabilitated the person retorn to prison.
When you kill one person and discover that is inocent, no turning back and this is an error.

In my opinion, our oral presentation is good because we explain clearly. The bad thing is that we reads a bit and this is a bad point.
Also, a thing that is improve is the time because only lasts 5 minutes.
In theory the presentation must lasts 10 minutes.
The parts that is copy, we don't understand all the words because the vocabulary is too dificult.
Finally I say that it is a good presentation, but there are things that is improving.
