TASK DEFINITION: We would like you to classify each of the following sets of argument pairs (discussing Death Penalty)  into either SIMILAR or NOT SIMILAR. A pair of arguments is considered SIMILAR if the arguments are about the same FACET (making the same argument), and is considered NOT SIMILAR if they do not have the same FACET. A FACET is a low level issue that often reoccurs in many arguments in support of the author's stance or in attacking the other author's position.
PROBLEM: Sent1: Although there is much controversy about him, I agree that prisons, especially for those for whom the death penalty could be considered, should be punishment.
 Sent2: The way I see it, capital punishment doesn't have to be expensive at all.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: You are against of violence, but have you ever thought that death penalty is also violence?
 Sent2: You can't just assume the death penalty is a crime.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: However, I do not see any moral difference in locking up an innocent person for 60 year or executing an innocent person.
 Sent2: So tell me, why do you consider it punishment to lock someone in a cage for the rest of their life (sometimes 60+ years), yet it is automatically revenge to execute them?

SOLUTION:
