Question for a few of you out there: how do you rationalize pro-choice/anti-death penalty or pro-life/pro-death penalty? Without an incredible amount of moral maneuvering, it doesn't make sense to me.

I'm kind of in the middle (very pro choice, mildly against the death penalty) but only because of financial costs, really. On a morality level, how do you split it down the middle?

certain criminals lose their right to life by infringing on others.  an unborn child has done nothing other than come into existance.

Um, what about the sixth commandment?

you shall not murder?

There is a reason it is the word murder rather than kill.

Tell that to Catholics, whose Sixth Commandment reads "You Shall Not Kill."
