I also find it hard to understand how people can be for the death penalty and against abortion. Then you have people like Paul Hill that take the law into their own hands and kill a doctor for performing abortions and a bodyguard who was simply protecting his client.
I don't honestly feel there is a better argument for either position simply because from a religious standpoint I dont' think we should be able to dictate punishment in the form of vengeance or retribution.
When innocent people die in both situations no argument should exist at all. Of course, my opinion.
