Let's have a chat about being "Pro-life"

No no, I'm not just posting another abortion thread. Let's talk about consistency about being "pro-life" Being pro-life means every person, fetus or otherwise, has an equal right to live out their life, correct? Then how come so many pro-life people [namely conservatives] are in support of the death penalty? The death penalty serves no purpose but to end someone's life. That flies directly in the face of being pro-life. Similarly, if you're pro-life, you should support some sort of universal healthcare system. Every person deserves access to proper healthcare and it shouldn't depend on whether or not they can afford it. Not doing so also contracts the values of being pro-life. So, pro-lifers - either accept these other values into your worldview, or admit that you're just pro-fetus.

    What you are doing is taking a term specifically identified with birth and applied it to a different issue. I thought that it was common sense that pro-life means right to be born and had nothing to do with the death penalty. I personally am against the death penalty expect for the worst of criminals.
