So here's the question that confounds me the most:

Why is it that conservatives can argue for the death penalty in one breath and expound the virtues of being pro-life in the next? Likewise, a liberal will protest the death penalty until they are blue in the face and then trot to the next town over to argue for a woman's right to end her child's life.

Anyone?

  I am going to give you my assessment, and it's not up for debate, because I most likely won't be back to this forum, to discuss this any further.
  
  All politicians are people of powerful positions. The only way they can stay in office is thru manipulation of the majority.
  
  If one person argues against the death penalty and still be pro-abortion, because these are two separate subjects. Which is what you are not doing...you are lumping them together in one topic.
  
  Abortion is for woman's rights and should be left up to that person, regardless of religion or government. This isn't to be tampered with, under no circumstance, because it is the woman's body and her decision alone. No one has the right to argue or debate with her about the choice she has to make.
  
  The Death Penalty, is brought about by government as the strongest form of punishment, which can be assigned to certain criminals, who have damaged society. Taking their life is seen as voiding a person's right to life. Which is error, because we execute war criminals for crime against humanity, Yet won't do it against the criminals who are ruining America's society(humanity).
  
  Your next response is going to be more likely not to be worth my response, because you are going to argue that a child is a life? Which is clearly not the case. Yes, some law(s), in some states have been made, to clearly define a 'life' of an individual, but stop short of doing what "pro-lifer's" wants. Which is life begins at fertilzation. It's not going to happen.
  
  The word "Life" hasn't been defined, as to when it began, except for the word 'birth' or 'born'. Life before that, is subjective to interpretations or situation or circumstances.
  
  I hope I helped.

  Wow! Someones got it all figured out! Unfortunately life just isn't that simple. I'll explain if--if you've not been too far jaded by a subject that you've obviously spent much time making your mind up on.
  
  I think that abortion is wrong, but that is just my opinion. That does not, however give me the right to judge anyone. I know, and love people that have had abortions. I do not agree with their decisions and yet I respect them as people. It seems, from your tone, that you would judge me or others who might have that opinion. Perhaps I am wrong, and if I misunderstood i apologize.
  
  As far as when life begins, I do not need the government or any law to give me the answer to that. Neither do you. It is a silly point to argue really. It would be better to just say "I believe a woman has the right to make her own decision about her own body, regardless of what is at stake". Why try to make excuses for your beliefs. It is what it is.
  
  Now as far as knowing what someones response is going to be and deeming it not worthy...I can only imagine you probably think I am some kind of Bible thumping Jesus Freak. Not true. I believe in a higher power but not in any form of organized religion.
  
  My opinion is simple and not laced with hate or judgement...but since it's "not up for debate, because I most likely won't be back to this forum, to discuss this any further." I guess I won't ever find out what yours is based on...

  No! You are not to debate and it's NOT a right of yours, NOR should it be your concern. That's the exact problem with society, too many other people telling the individual what he or she can or cannot do.
  
  It's pathetic. When you start ripping away at the foundation of right of choice, then you strip people of their power to control their own life.

  No conflict exists. Here's why:
  
  Abortion is the oldest form of birth control. For thousands of years women have been having abortions...until around 1830. When physicians started becoming more than faith healers they still didn't know about germs. Laws were passed prohibiting doctors from performing abortions, not preventing women from having them. Why? Because doctors were treating and handling dead people and (with the same equipment) performing abortions. Women would become infected and die. In 1969, the U.S. Supreme Court overruled Roe vs. Wade because the state no longer had an interest (safety) in the laws that prevented abortions. Several other routine procedures on women are similiar to an abortion (which is how illegal abortions were sneakily performed). Liberals do not approve of abortions, but we want to keep them safe. Typically conservatives have fought very strongly to keep the sex education programs out of the schools; programs that would eliminate the need for most abortions.
  
  Not all liberals are anti-death penalty. However, we have problems with the way the death penalty is handled. (1) Approximately 1.5 million dollars is spent on the Prosecution side of every death penalty case. The defending side is lucky to have ten thousand dollars, usually not. (2) Whether the death penalty is sought or not is completely at the hands of the prosecutor. Many jurisdiction would be happy for a long prison sentence while other jurisdiction seek death. (3) Long term imprisonment is far more economical that the death penalty. In addition to the added costs of these prosecutions (many would have pleaded guilty), the added security measures required for housing death row inmates is far higher than conventional inmates. Death row inmates are also unable to do any useful work while awaiting executions. The best argument against the death penalty is economics. To execute one prisoner requires the equivelent of three person's life work. We can spend the money in better ways.
  
  Personally, I believe that the death penalty is best used in specific cases: Planned Murder. I think the death penalty is best reserved for those who enter a situation planning to kill. The robber or rapist who goes too far should spend decades in prison. Maybe they do deserve to die. But narrowing the focus of the death penalty would save society uncounted millions of dollars. Money that could be spent to prevent such crimes.

  In the conservative view (the correct one I might add) the death penalty is applied to the guilty, and the unborn or innocent are not murdered.
  
  The liberal progressive view is the guilty should go unharmed or go free and the innocent destroyed.

  That's a very good question. I am not conservative or liberal, so I am going to give you an independent point of view.
  
  I am definitely Pro-life and I believe no human has the right to take another human's life (death penalty). It doesn't matter how much crime or destruction they did to society. There are prisons and jails and psycho wards for people like that. All they need is confinement and counseling and they could change for the positive. Freeway Ricky Ross, an infamous crack cocaine distributor in the 1980s, went to jail for 20+ years and has just been released a few months ago. Prison changed him for the positive, because he read and received education, and was introduced to a whole new world besides drug-dealing. Now he is trying to steer temporary kids in the ghetto from gangs and drugs to the positive/brighter side to life. So I don't think anybody who had a negative impact on society should be murdered. Anyways, there are many politicians who have damaged society more than anybody in history has, but they haven't been persecuted. So why should any civilian?
  
  I also believe that abortion is wrong in so many ways, because they don't even give the baby a chance to experience it's life. They don't know if that baby could have grew up to be a very important asset in society and save humanity in ways. I also can't grasp the concept that a mother would kill their child. If anything they could have gave birth to their child and put her/him up for adoption. That way when it gets older it can track the mother down, and the mother doesn't have to live with partial murder of her own BLOOD.
  
  So all in all, conservatives and liberals are so corrupt and so competitive that they can stand to their views from one issue to the next. It's actually somewhat disgusting if you ask me.

  This is ridiculous! Conservatives believe that if someone kills 100 people by going on a shooting spree, they deserve to die for the price of those that the person shot and killed. Abortion is wrong, completely wrong. Why would someone support, must less kill a baby? They must be brainless.

  It's funny. When I asked this question the point I had in mind was that, in my opinion, NO ONE ON THIS PLANET has the right to decide who lives and who dies! I've followed the forum and, with few exceptions, all I have seen is the extremities of both sides argue that their side has the right to make that choice. It must be wonderfull to be sure enough about one's own place in existence to be able to make that decision about someone elses place in that same existence.
  
  Well, so much for adult discussion...here's some interesting FACTS for you to consider:
  
  1)Not every person put to death by the American Justice System is a "MASS MURDERER"
  
  2)Not every innocent baby (that is about the only point I agree with) is being "forced to die for some idiots mistake"
  
  The real problem with the left and right is that BOTH sides are black and white when it comes to the issues that concern them, and all kinds of horrid shades of gray when it comes to the basic black and white question of RIGHT and WRONG!
  
  The fact that no one has realized this is the truly "RIDICULOUS" part!

Kill guilty criminals that have proven to be a menace to society, the innocents aren't to be slaughtered but protected. Doesn't seem backward or hypocritical to me.

The other way around does - kill a baby because he/she is inconvenient at this time in my life but do everything we can to prolong the life of that man who had kidnapped, raped, and killed several women and/or children.

Not too confusing or confounding to see which makes sense. And if you believe in preserving life at all costs (I don't), you'd have to fight for both.

Easy, at least when it comes to early abortions (although, believe it or not, neither all Conservatives nor all Liberals necessarily believe what is commonly associated with either group):

Conservatives often believe that unborn babies are innocent little human beings, and that death-penalty-worthy criminals have done something worthy of being destroyed, themselves. They may also believe that the surviving family members of victims of torture and/or murder deserve to see justice.

Liberals often believe that ending the life of an unfinished human being (particularly in the first trimester) is at times better than allowing a child to be born to a mother who can't/won't offer that child what every child needs/deserves; and therefore creates a damaged human being. In other words, they can believe that sometimes it's better to end a life before birth than to sentence a human being to a lifetime anguish and damage.

As far as the death penalty goes, many are more worried about killing wrongfully convicted people than about killing the real criminals. Many are worried about "government killing" (of viable human beings) as compared to the private, personal, decision to end, say, the life of a seven-week-old fetus. Anyone who has ever seen the "products of conception" after an early miscarriage can see there's a very big difference between that and Fred, the wrongfully convicted guy on death row.

(As far as later abortions go, I'm sorry - I just think they take a "special kind of coldness" that is separate from the more mainstream matter of legal, early, abortions; and I have no explanation for anyone's believing those are ok.)

  If you are referring to the child's choice. That is a myth!
  
  Abortion is the right of the mother. Abortions will not be done a whim. No doctor in their right mind would perform one, done under those circumstances.
  
  The ability for women to get abortions is a right that isn't to be violated, but must be monitored. It's not practical to abort a child at 6 or 7 months. No that's just dumb and no doctor would do it.
  
  The Laws are defined by each state, as to when 'life' begins or is considered a child.

  well, what a solid argument. One hospital back east was delivering babies and then leaving them in soiled 'comfort rooms' until they died by starvation.(it was safer for the mother) So, some new laws were created because of that.
  The Clintons even agreed that babies upon birth have rights, but anything prior....?
  One "professor" in Boston Mass. was teaching in his classrooms that mothers should be able to 'abort' three months after delivery. Why? because it would give her a chance to see if it was really right for her.
  
  you really want to talk about rights? You really think a babies choice is a myth. You know- as the doctors are cutting the baby inside the mother, the baby is doing everything possible to not be touched and cut.

  The sacrifice of individual right of choice is constantly challenged and weighed against that of society, and shortly, the government will be ripping apart the Constitution. I'm advocating for the rights of individuals to maintain power over their life.

I hate abortion, especially when it's used as a form of birth control. Don't think for a minute that this doesn't happen. I've had high school students who had already had as many as 3 or 4 by the time they were seniors. I am realistic enough, however, to understand that regardless of laws, women will continue to somehow have abortions. If Roe v. Wade were ever overturned, the women would resort to nasty "back alley" procedures. I do STRONGLY support laws against late-term abortions, however, except in cases where the mother's life is threatened.

We need to work together on ways to reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies instead of tearing each other up on the issue of abortion. I think even the "most left" liberal would agree that abortion is not a good thing, even though they defend a woman's choice to have one. I don't know anyone who is "for" abortion itself. Fewer unwanted pregnancies = fewer abortions. I'm all for placing condoms in high school lockers!

How can it be true than the death penalty costs more? If you killed them right after the verdict, it doesn't.

  That's not how it works in the US. The criminal would have a sea of appeals and other legal processes at his disposal that would cost taxpayers more than feeding and housing him for life.

So many girls and women now consider the father irrelevant anyway, the baby belongs to the mom. I'd keep my baby alive. I can't say that I wouldn't give him/her up for adoption, that would depend on how I felt during the pregnancy.

  ohh yeah. Well welcome to a nation of illigitimate babies are encouraged. I bet 90% of rape babies are "mothers" trying to get their boy friends in jail because they were fighting.

I believe in the right to life, but rights are not absolutes. You can forfeit your rights in some cases. Your rights will be sharply curtailed if you commit a crime and go to prison, for example.

A person that kills someone with malice forfeits his right to live.

There is a consistency here but it doesn't surround the principle of life; it surrounds the principle of innocence and guilt. Innocent people should not be punished and guilty people should.

Babies should not be killed by their mothers because those infants are innocent; a man that breaks into the home of a family, kills the husband, rapes the woman, and then tortures her to death has forfeited his right to live. He is guilty; in this case, he should die for it.
