I know this is going to be a subject people are passionate on, but I just want to get opinions, perspective, and generate dialogue. All I ask is that people maintain some degree of civility when making your points.
I had a discussion about this with my sister and she falls into this category. I asked her to explain how she could support death in one case in not in another and she really didn't offer much other than that is how she feels. Now I know some people will say life begins at different points, but an abortion prevents life as does an execution IMO. Also, I know that neither situation is always black and white. There's always circumstances beyond the end result that need to be factored in most of the time. I really don't have a view on abortion other than education being provided on the subject to someone considering it. If it's legal, then it's legal and that is a decision an individual will have to make for themselves and that how I feel about both subjects. That being said, discussion should always be open and frank about both IMO because both of the decisions are irreversible.
I personally have no problem with the death penalty, PROVIDED there is irrefutable evidence (DNA, video, etc.) that the accused is guilty. That being said, I don't know how often that is the case. It is something that should used with extreme caution though IMO.
I guess I would say that I am pro both for the most part.
Let me end this by saying that my last girlfriend had an abortion (this was before she met me). She was nervous about telling me, but I simply told her that it was before she met me and her decision and it wouldn't be right for me to judge her, and I appreciated the fact that she did decide to tell me. I guess she was scared about what I would think of her. I think if she had a pattern of having multiple ones then obviously I'd be concerned, but that wasn't the case.
