The death Penalty + "pro-lifers" = the oxi-morons of South Dakota

At this point in time we are less than six hours away from the state of South Dakota legally killing someone. It is the choice of the elected people that we have that option.

I am wondering though, where the hell is Roger Hunt, Leslee Unruh, the Alpha center, New Haven, and all the rest of the "life is precious" crowd that pushed through a bill that all but says that women here in SD are too stupid to make their own choices.
Where are they?
They should be up on the hill standing outside the prison protesting against the LEGAL death of Elijah Page. But no, all of these so-called "right to life" people will most likely sitting in bed watching the news when 10 p.m. rolls around.
10 p.m. when Mr. Page's life slowly drifts away.

WHY IS IT OK FOR THIS TO HAPPEN, BUT NOT OK FOR A WOMAN TO MAKE A PERSONAL CHOICE TO HAVE AN ABORTION!?

There I said it, yup I said the 'A' word. And I will say it again, ABORTION, ABORTION, ABORTION, ABORTION!

Why is that bad, but lethal injection is good? What the hell is the attitude here folks? "you can't kill them when they cannot live on their own but, once they are born & they screw up. Strap 'em down, hit the button & then you can kill them with the states blessing".

THIS IS WRONG!

How can the same people that say life is so special & cannot be wasted under any circumstance, turn around & support capitol punishment. And don't call a bullshit on me for saying that. As of 1992 over 76% of people polled that said that they were "pro-life" also stated that they supported capitol punishment.
Am I the only one that finds that odd?

Personally I do not like abortion. But, if my mother, daughter, wife, girlfriend, or any woman dear to me in my life became pregnant by accident, rape, or whatnot.

They should make the decision, not some 68 year old man several hundred miles away.

Mr. Page made some choices that got him into this situation. He also made the choice to atone for what he did. I find it odd that the only legal protest at this point in time is from the people around the other person that plead guilty for the murder that had happened. The thinking behind that is if Elijah Page is killed, who is to say the state will not come back & murder his partner in crime.

So here we all sit. Watching & waiting. Waiting & watching. While people tell us what to do & what to believe is right & what is wrong.

And all this tripe is attributed to the good of the nation, because as you know, we all are too stupid to know better. {According to those that supposedly represent us.}

I am calling a bullshit on them for that!

Blessed Be & hope for a new world to come soon.
