H.L. Mencken's Essay, The Penalty of Death

by H. L. Mencken
Van Ickleberg
Audiobook

American journalist, essayist, satirist, and cultural critic, H.L. Mencken makes his 3-pronged case for the death penalty for those who take the lives of other people, challenging civilized order. Mencken argues the death penalty is a form of catharsis for the immediate victims of the crime, and is not solely for deterring other criminals, but also to give peace of mind to the society that has been wronged.
