Executing criminals is a matter of opinion, but there are arguments both for and against it. On one hand, executing criminals can serve as a deterrent to would-be offenders, and take dangerous individuals off the streets. On the other hand, there is a risk of executing an innocent person and the cost of legal appeals in executions can be high. Also, some people may not agree with capital punishment in general or perceive executing criminals as immoral or unfair.

There are certain school of thoughts that believe in harsh punishments such as capital punishment for those who have committed serious crimes. However, there is still debate on whether or not this kind of punishment is effective in deterring crime or if it can be justified as a form of retribution. Ultimately, it is up to the government to decide if they want to use capital punishment for particular crimes and how to enforce it within their legal system.
