George Orwell in his essay “A Hanging” points out the real meaning “to destroy a healthy and conscious man” and at that time he had an epiphany. He realized that a human being who feels and suffers as he will be dead in a few minutes. On the other hand, the author describes how the executioners went to drink after the hanging because they felt had not done anything wrong. For many people, it is unbelievable and incredible how indifferent they are when taking a life. I believe that behind the prisoner is an individual with feelings, dreams, and goals. I am against capital punishment because it is an aberrant penalty. Therefore, God is the owner of our lives, so He only can claim a life regardless of the crime committed.
