Summary of "Never again"

Capital punishment is the most cruel punishment. There are various opinion about it in the World.

The main arguments for it are: fear of death can be prevention for murders; society would be safer; murders should get what they deserve; murders live in prison from taxpayers’ money. The arguments against capital punishment ''say'': statistic showed that fear of death didn’t reduce murders rate; there are people ,who are wrongly convicted; nobody can take a life ,even state; Christian religion is against death penalty.

The reintroduction of capital punishment is one of the most negotiable question nowadays .There are countries ,where it is acted (in the USA) or not , (in Great Britain).

My future profession

I am studying at Mykolo Romerio university.My speciality is Law and penitentiary activity.Actually,I have never thought about studying law before my exams.I , my family and friends thought that I will study photography or graphic art ,or something like that.But now I am here and I think my speciality is enough interesting.

I and my study mates don‘t know about our speciality very much.But I think it is difficult and hard speciality.Person ,who want work in this area should be strong nerves, self-possessed ,responsible and interested in such problems like prisoners’ socialization, crimes rate reduction ,situation in prisons amendment and etc. On purpose to do this, member of this profession must know law very well. So it is one of the most important our study’s part.

We are trained to work in prison or other correctional institutions, but we will be able to work as lawyer too. In my opinion there are lot of perspectives to do a career .Furthermore , there are lot of abilities to rise a qualification in Lithuania and abroad too. Sure, not all of as will work in this area in future.

Today we all are full of hope that we all will end this university and will end it well. But maybe one of as will leave it for various reason .I am not sure for my decision too. So I don’t know how long I will study here. Maybe I will choose other studies in other university ,maybe not. .But now the most important thing for all of as is to pass our first exams well.
