It wasn't your finding it 'funny,' it was your tone and refusal to respond in a reasoned manner.

stating I find something funny is not making fun of you or belittling you .. it's finding something funny.


I explained further in the thread how I feel about getting wrapped up in the 'labels'.l

<not true -- the person committing the crime chose to ... >>


That statement is as absolute as every person who has sex automatically chooses to have a baby, afterall isn't that a consequence---

Yes, my point.

Have you missed the point of the analogy?

Except pro-life refers to abortion. You can't simply take a term used in context and say it's application in all contexts.

That's like saying someone who is pro-choice is in support of incest or having sex with you dog. I mean pro-choice means "pro-choice" doesn't it?

Except we know that's silly because pro-choice is a term coined specifically for use when it comes to abortion. Just like pro-life was term coined specifically for use when referring to abortion.

"Ah, but the state ultimately decides who will live or die and not an individual."

But do you mean by "the state"? You talk about it as if it were an entity with decision making powers. The state is composed of individual decision makers. So it is individuals who decide. Just like corporations "don't pay taxes". People do. Individuals; shareholders, customers and/or employees.

Not to mention the individual who commits the "capital crime" has made the decision to risk his life and/or put it in the hands of other individuals to manage.
