Abolition of Death Penalty in Taiwan Recently I have read several articles about death penalty in Taiwan. It's a dilemma here. Some people think Taiwan should stop executing criminals while some people against the abolition of death penalty. There are many reasons for their opinions. However, is the death penalty really the best way we have? In my own experience as an example, my father was died due to a obvious medical negligence in China. The anesthetist ran away. At that time I didn't even care about it, because I only want my father to be alive again. And I also think it's a sad thing that the anesthetist has to carry this guilt to live forever. The real problem there is the system. Why the government would allow such a hospital and medical staff exist? Why they could just let that anesthetist run away and didn't help us more? Why that hospital can still run their business till now? If we care more about the root of crimes, we will focus on the right angle of the problem and think of something to solve it. And if the problem can be solved, we won't have to face this kind of sad news every day.
