TASK DEFINITION: We would like you to assess the QUALITY of each of the following argument (discussing Death Penalty) and determine if the argument is Valid or Invalid. A valid argument is clearly interpretable and either expresses an argument, or a premise or a conclusion that can be used in an argument for the topic of death penalty. An invalid argument is a phrase that cannot be interpreted as an argument or not on the topic of death penalty.
PROBLEM: The death penalty again, in giving punishing the offender sends out a message to others that no one should kill or hurt another person which will thus serve to deter other potential killers.

SOLUTION: Valid

PROBLEM: Firstly, many people say that Europe does not have the death penalty so the U.S should not.

SOLUTION: Valid
