So in the case of rape it's okay to (in your words) murder? You condone murder then? See that gets real grey doesn't it. And, being pro-life means wanting abortion to be illegal, so now the woman who's been raped has to commit a crime, along with murder.I think you've misunderstood me. I, personally, am pro-life. Does that mean that I'm going to say no to every abortion reason? No. There's three cases where I say it's up to the mother - rape, incest, or severe danger to her. Does this mean I condone it? No. It means I'll respect her decision and support her, if she decided to have an abortion for one of those three cases.
Death penalty? I believe it is necessary to have on the books. And in some cases it's the punishment that suits the crime.
Now, as a liberal I must lament the over-representation of minorities on death row, and the over-representation of minorities among those who've been cleared through DNA, so I can admit it's certainly not well managed.
