5.7 Developing a Research Question

Throughout our criminal justice system, many different topics come up during debates that are controversial in our society. 

One of these controversial questions is: What are the pros/cons of the death penalty?
-The death penalty has been around for ages, and it is still a question of concern to this day. I find this question interesting because knowing the pros and cons of the death penalty can help decide on which side of the issue a person is.

Another controversial topic is about gun control. What makes/what are the details about being pro/against gun control?
-Gun control is an interesting topic because it is already written within our Constitution what the government feels its views on gun control are, but some citizens disagree with what the Constitution says. 

Lastly, this question is similar to my first question. Does capital punishment actually deter crime?
-Criminologists are constantly studying our society, attempting to figure out numerous issues, one being what makes people commit crimes. An opposite approach to that question would be what prevents people from performing crimes? Is it the possibility of capital punishment?
