死刑（其之二） The Capital Punishment (Part 2)

對某甲處以死刑，與剝奪其生命，兩者有別。諸如：對草木不可處以死刑，但可剝奪其生命。其間差異，在乎人格。	It is different between giving a capital punishment to one and depriving one of life. For example, we cannot give a capital punishment to plants, but we can deprive plants of lives. The difference between the two cases comes from personality.
是以雖〈死刑（其之一）〉謂：「罪重至死者既屬非人，遂無從定罪施刑，至於死刑亦不可得。」惟對非人剝奪其生命，尚非不可。	Therefore, even if in The Capital Punishment (Part 2), I have said, "if a criminal is guilty of death, since he is deemed a subhuman, we cannot judge and punish him, and the capital punishment is ineligible to him as well." However, we can still deprive the subhuman of life.
