Well said and this is one of my central arguments against the death penalty. If you believe in the sanctity of human life, how can one life be more important than another? Plus, if these so-called "Evangelicals" who pretend to be so much more righteous than the rest of us cared about the child after it was born as much as they care about it before it is born, then I'd say they are doing some good. Indeed, these are the same ultra-right wingers who would deny medical coverage for this child so their respect for life ends at birth. How ironic and yes, totally hypocritical.
Taking care of a person takes more resources and money after it's born. I mean you can't expect them to think a life of a person and it's well being is more important than money or giving the rich and businesses even more tax breaks, now can you?
