Just Wondering

the typical lame response that.... (0.00 / 0)

...I receive from righty wingnutters is that death-row prisoners are evil guilty people, but embryos are "innocent and defenseless".  So the bottom line is that people like Ferguson/Ernie/Smith claim to treasure human life, but they sort of pick and choose which humans (or potential humans) to treasure.  Oh, and once a child is born into poverty, it's on its own.  And I guess Iraqi civilians don't count.

Death Penalty is Playing God (0.00 / 0)

Deciding who deserves to live and die, for many people, is the purview of God and not humans.

These folks want to play God: fetuses live, people we think (not know, but think) are bad die.
