Very strongly agree

No, too many people are innocently convicted

This answer strongly aligns with the human rights ideology, as it highlights one of the main concerns of human rights advocates: the risk of executing innocent people. The wrongful conviction and execution of individuals, such as the case of Cameron Todd Willingham in the United States, have been used by human rights organizations to argue against the death penalty.

Strongly agree

No

The human rights ideology generally opposes the death penalty, as it is considered a violation of the right to life and the prohibition of cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment. International human rights organizations like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch actively campaign against the death penalty. The score is not 5 because some countries with human rights-based constitutions still maintain the death penalty.

Agree

No, spending life in prison is a harsher sentence

This answer aligns with the human rights ideology's opposition to the death penalty, as it suggests an alternative punishment that does not involve taking a life. However, the argument that life in prison is a harsher sentence may not fully align with the human rights perspective, which emphasizes the inherent dignity and worth of every human being, even those convicted of crimes.

Disagree

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence

While this answer is more nuanced than a blanket support for the death penalty, the human rights ideology still generally opposes the death penalty, even for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence. The risk of executing innocent people and the violation of the right to life and prohibition of cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment remain concerns.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but the victim’s family should decide the punishment

The human rights ideology opposes the death penalty and emphasizes the importance of a fair and impartial justice system. Allowing the victim's family to decide the punishment could lead to arbitrary and potentially cruel, inhuman, or degrading punishments, which would be contrary to human rights principles. The score is not -5 because this answer still acknowledges the need for some limitations on the use of the death penalty.
