This is a very strong topic in my book. I support capital punishment but I do not support abortion. Some people think they are the same. They are not. The criminals that are put on death row deserve to die for the crimes that they had commited. The aborted babies should not have to die because the mother of it got impregnated by having casual sex. So that is how they are different; criminals deserve the death penalty but babies do not deserve the death penatly.
