How is it possible to simultaneously hold both an anti-abortion, and a pro-gun/capital punishment view?
Sarah Palin holds these views.
Anti abortion people claim that life is precious and go to great lengths to ensure life is preserved.
Guns are made to end lives - Palin is for carrying hand guns around (not for hunting, IOW).
Capital punishment is the termination of life as punishment for crime.
So is the argument simply that anti abortion people think that life is precious unless you are a criminal, then, to hell with you?
I really don't understand this.
I think the idea is like this: Life is precious when you are a child, since you are innocent, but it gets steadily less precious as you get older. By the time you're an adult (old enough to become a soldier, old enough to commit crimes, etc.) your life is only precious if you are a demonstrably good person. (You may demonstrate this by going to church.)
Quality of life is not precious.
