Yes, I agree with lady cop. One group is the innocents. The second group has taken lives.

Re: Anti-Choice/Pro DP

this could become a theological topic having to do with souls and biblical injunctions. i personally would rather only address the practical considerations of crime and punishment. my views on abortion are mixed depending on individual circumstances. but i am 100% certain that ted bundy et al will never kill another human being. is DP unevenly applied? historically yes. i am grateful for forensic science in helping to correct wrongs. and convict the guilty. and now we have seen even someone with a million-dollar lawyer can be convicted. but will a young white male receive death? i would be surprised. as an aside...can anyone here honestly say they could kill? soldiers must. i may have to one day in defense of an innocent or myself, and am prepared to do so. but many who say they would "throw the switch"...could they really? i am firmly in favor of the DP for garbage like danny rolling, richard allen davis, david westerfield, and many less known. and i personally know some murderers. it's my daily fare. have talked to "dead people walking". that's another post! sorry to go on!

Re: Anti-Choice/Pro DP

I don't think i could ever have an abortion but it is a personal choice. I would choose not to have one coz I don't agree with it but each woman should be able to make that choice for herself without someone telling her she is a murderer. At that time in a woman's life when she has to decide something like that, she is already under enough emotional stress as it is. I think anyone who has had an abortion would tell you its not an easy decision and is never undertaken lightly except in the case of teenagers but thats something different.

Sorry, bit heavy that but I had to get it off my chest

Re: Anti-Choice/Pro DP

Absloutely agree Lovemama, my personal opinion is that only a woman has the right to decide on an abortion. This stance has made me unpopular before and it will again but I do not believe that any man can understand the issue fully.

Re: Anti-Choice/Pro DP

Most people I know are anti-choice and pro-death. That makes me rather unpopular, as well. Too bad, so sad. (LOL)

Re: Anti-Choice/Pro DP

totally up to the woman.. I mean I am a guy. Who am I to tell a woman what to do with her body. DP.. if it guilt has been proven beyond a doubt and I do mean beyond a doubt including DNA testing and such then the person has forfeited the right to live. Juice them up and let them be tried by the supreme being of thier choice..

But it's not her body, it's someone elses.
