Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.

People have different views on giving fixed or variable punishments for crimes. While fixed penalties for crimes have their own benefits, I believe that any specific cases should be studied before applying a certain sentence to it.
On the one hand, giving fixed punishments for crime are so vital for keeping the security of a nation. The first to mention is that, unchangeable laws need to be agreed and announced publicly so that every citizen know and strictly abide by them. This serves as a useful reminder which can help to prevent anyone from committing a crime. In addition, a fixed law system helps to guarantee the synchronized obedience within the area of a nation and practice the equality in judging the law breaking cases. For instance: if people violate the law, they will suffer from some kinds of punishment no matter who they are.
On the other hand, people should consider any specific details of any crime before using an appropriate punishment. Firstly, studying case-by-case of law violation helps to apply correct forms of penalties to the law violators. Let take situation causing the violation as an example, one who breaks the laws should be considered to do it deliberately or accidentally so that the punishment can be kept unchanged or can be lessened to a lighter one. Secondly, various forms and extent of crimes are made by all walks of life, it is necessary to study the reason why people commit the crimes. For instance, the literate and educated people should be punished more heavily than illiterate and uneducated ones if they try to violate the laws.
In conclusion, although it is really beneficial for us to maintain a fixed punishment, we should study each case to make sure that penalties are applied correctly.Attachments:
