13. To be consistent, they will need to apply an 'eye for an eye' to both
the doctor and the murderess--oops, almost said "patient"--seeking the abortion.

Conservatives are always telling us we have to have a death penalty to show that we honor life.... (Same deal with abortion: can't abort a 3 day gestation zygote because it has a soul already and the soul is the life not the body, so to honor human life you can't abort it.)
Conservatives are always telling us that we have to have mandatory sentencing for serious felonies...
And for mandatory sentencing to be at all conscienable, which is difficult since it removes the discretion of the judge in weighing mitigating/aggravating factors in sentencing, it has to be applied the same way, arriving at the same sentence for similar crimes.
Now then in the crime of abortion which is by their reasoning capital murder, there can be hardly less guilt on the part of the woman than on the part of the abortionist--so it is inescapably fair under Republican rules that the woman seeking the abortion should be put to death, and that this shall be the mandatory minimum sentence for judges to follow so that they don't coddle these criminals and so that they don't commit the injustice of burdening the doctor with the guilt of the woman. The woman and doctor are guilty together and their lives are forfeit: one life taken shall be answered with two. In the case of aborted twins Justice demands that we kill the woman, the doctor, and the whole fucking family of both of them.
