Human Trafficking and Slavery

a. Define the terms;  human trafficking & slavery.

Human trafficking -- the sale, transport and profit from human beings who are forced to work for others -- is the modern equivalent of slavery. Against their will, millions of people around the world are forced to work for the profit of others, for example by begging, prostitution, involuntary servitude, working in sweatshops - even becoming child soldiers.

About death penalty...

I am against the death penalty. Because people could mistakes for example, they are fighting each other and one hit another and another just died because of one punch. Actually, they don’t mean to kill people. These call mistakes. And another good example is may be the people on wrongly convicted. They can’t do anything for it. That’s cruel to them. They didn’t do anything and they must die because they were wrongly convicted. If the courts judgement found out that was not guilty after the person die. Once they die, they can’t make them alive again. So, I am against the death penalty.
