Medical practitioner: In states where the death penalty exists, we have been using lethal injections to cause painless and immediate death to the convicts. The injection reduces their suffering.
Human rights activist: In the first place, the very act of snuffing out life in the name of death penalty is barbaric and has no place in a civilised world. Then my concern is the active involvement of medical practitioners in carrying out executions. The involvement of doctors in administering lethal injections in the name of reducing cruelty defies logic and runs counter to their professional ethic of saving lives.
The human rights activist responds to the medical practitioner’s argument by
A. pointing out the flaw in the medical practitioner’s argument, saying that causing death cannot be done without causing pain.
B. objecting to death penalty as well as to the medical practitioner’s role in execution.
C. objecting to the practice of imposing death penalty, describing it as barbaric and uncivilized.
D. deriding the medical practitioner’s role in carrying out executions.
E. questioning the use of injection by the medical practitioner in carrying out executions.

the Human rights activist's opinion is against the death penalty as it is barbaric, and doctors' involvement in this part is against humanity! WHY? because the doctor's main job is to save life not to kill people!
