I'm pro-lifer, the right for innocents to have life, and pro-justice the right for the death penalty of criminals who do not deserve a life, dangerous criminals never expressed remorse for their actions, so they don’t deserve mercy.
Pro-choicers are saying nothing of the kind. What they are saying is that the abortion issue is an individual choice, and they have no right to judge the values or the religious beliefs of another. Supporting individual choice is not equivalent to supporting abortion on a personal level. It is supporting individual choice in moral matters.

Regarding the death penalty, it is not for us to judge who deserves to live and who doesn't. Decisions such as that make us no better than the murderer who decided that his victim, for whatever reason, did not deserve to live.
