The transformation from the articles of the federation to the constitution is important because it allowed our country to govern itself. Before the constitution we had to follow the laws that Britain had set, causing us to be treated unfairly with different taxes and laws.
The Bill of Rights where an important part of our constitution because it set certain laws that where set and required and that the congress couldn't intrude on. The freedom of religion, speech or ever the freedom to assemble, are all important parts that allow each one of us to be free.
Capital punishment is not constitutional because it is not mentioned, but that doesn't make it illegal. When a certain law isn't listed in the constitution the right of that law is allowed to be interpreted in each individual state. I believe that if someone kills someone in cold blood, they too should suffer the same demise. There are degrees of crimes which should be considered in making a judgment for the death penalty.
Interesting take on the death penalty. The first I've seen someone take that into consideration. Great views!
