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.

I the case of abortion the motivation is that no human can decide whether another human should live or die, therefor abortion is a bad thing. But the all of a sudden they think "well I guess some people deserve to die so maybe it is ok for a human to decide over another humans fate after all".

Its hard and probably unfair to compare abortion with capital punishment. In abortion, the human never had a chance at life; whereas the death penalty, the asshole had a chance, even got a hearing to try and get off the hook, and it was decided that he is a detriment to society that has to be removed. That person had control of their own destiny, and thats what they chose. The child never had a choice. Just to reiterate, I am pro-choice and pro capital punishment. I don't think people are hypocrits for supporting one and yet not the other; they are just too dissimilar.

Actually the death penalty costs a lot more than life imprisonment.

I know. It was brought up already in the rolleyes.net forum.
But that's more expensive by choice. All it takes is some piano wire.

I dont know what you guys are talking about, " mankind is too soft in general". Prison is worse than death. Much worse. Unless your really big. Then you should be executed. But i do agree with the idea of victims having their way with the criminal. Oh, and Ero-fan, did you get that televised idea from George Carlin?

Also, there should be limits to abortion. Perhaps say, a woman can only choose to abort if she became pregnant through rape.

So what if a girl got pregnat when she was making love to her boyfriend and the condom broke? Would you just tell her "Well tough luck, that's your problem eh?"

Prison is a fucking vacation here in Sweden, there has been homeless people doing crimes just to get into the fucking 4 star hotel we call prison. No wonder people return to doing crimes when after a short while out in the free, they realize that their situation outside the prison sucks so they want to go back in.

Death penalty is expensive because people insist on giving the person a decent death, a person who has killed 13 teenage girls doesn't deserve to get a decent death, someone should shoot his balls off and let him bleed to death.

No, I don't think so. I might have, but its been like over 8 yrs since I watched a stand up comedy show. I just thought it'd be entertaining to watch. Prison isn't that bad anymore, especially for the sickos that get like solitary confinement. The only limit on abortion should be based on how far along in the pregnancy the woman is. Of course, you'd make exceptions if the woman's life is in jeopardy. It'd prob be the third trimester would be the cut off point.
I wish we could shoot em and let them bleed to death, but people consider that too cruel, so lets just kill them instantly, but cheaply.

Edit: Damn, assertn, you took the words right outta my mouth.

Don't even start with that. Imagine being in a situation where you have to change your whole life because of an unexpected pregnancy. Some people end up permanently suspending their own ambitions for problems like that. And you're bringing a child into the world that nobody wanted...is that fair to the child?

Just what we need, an excuse for more people in the world.

No, i said "raped", not intentional sex. otherwise, i'd agree with you. When people have sex, they should be prepared for the consequences.
