i dont see how the 2 are similar. Yes, you're talking about ending life, but one life is that of an innocent child, and theres absolutely no doubt about his ainnocence. On the other hand, with capital punishment, you're talking about punishing someone who has commited a crime, and not just any crime, something so serious that it warrants the death penalty. So its perfectly reasonable to br pro capital punishment, and anti abortion.
Why don't we just take all criminals and put them in the hard jobs like working in a mine or something along those lines so we have some use for them.I like how were starting to sound like the intro to some post-apocolyptic fps game [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img].To hell with me being nice earlier, I'll tell you what we should really do with criminals. I say, screw prisons, put em in a fenced in area. Have a free-for-all where the last man/woman alive gets a free "pardon", and by pardon I mean a quick death. Televise the event, use the money to pay for the guards and prison grounds. I bet it would be a hit right off the bat. I know I would watch.
