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: I dont think staying in prison for life is more punishment.
 Sent2: I dont believe that someone who killed or raped a lot of people should be able to live even if they are in a jail surrounded by other criminals.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: So if we can assume that innocent people are convicted in capital punishment cases, shouldn't we be free to assume that innocent people are being convicted in non-capital punishment cases as well?
 Sent2: Given the scrutiny of death penalty cases, it seems that we would be more likely to lock someone up for life in prison and never uncover their innocence than we are to execute an innocent person.

SOLUTION: Not similar

PROBLEM: Sent1: I am not a big proponent of the death penalty.
 Sent2: I have a lot of sympathy for ex-convicts, but I still favor the death penalty.

SOLUTION:
Not similar
