They support the death penalty
The death penalty reduces the homicide rate.

They are against gun control
Guns defend against a tyrannical government, which kills more people historically then any crazy shooter.  They are the real threat to life.

They are against birth control, which reduces abortions
80% of the GOP supports artificial birth control.

They are against welfare
The GOP supports welfare, generally, but not as a way of life.  They support things like ending single motherhood, which promote poverty by encouraging people to stay faithful to their vows.  They are also against premarital sex, that can lead to smash and dash attitudes and actions conducted by many males.  The GOP is against this.

They support the military and the military is stereotyped to kill
The US military saves more then it kills.  When we pulled out of Iraq, ISIS formed and they killed a lot.  When US troops stayed, we created relative peace, like with Japan, South Korea, and Germany.

They support deportation
They support following the law.  They offered DACA for the wall to the Democrats and they refused.  They reunited families at the border that they were required to break up under previous law, Obama split up families too and the media barely said anything about it.  Trump fixed this law.

Did I miss anything?  Responders should respond 1 at a time because I don't want to respond to a dozen messages at once.  That's hard on my part.

Pro life equals killing people. Your head's only purpose is to separate your ears.

Life is dependant upon death.

If this weren't the case, we would not exist.

The term "Pro-life" is as obvious as it is ridiculous.

Alec, I know you want these addressed one at a time, but your caricature doesn't seem consistent accross multiple answers, even putting aside the questionable claim to Pro-Life.

Considering the guns are ok for killing people but abortions are not argument, you're a hypocrite.

Comparing a criminal to a baby shows that you are a hypocrite.

Nothing is okay for murdering others, not even guns.  But most gun owners, the vast majority don't use their guns to murder others.  They use it for protection and hunting.

This video explains it better than I can:

Also target shooting, and just living outdoors. Many people don't associate their gun ownership with self defense.

Since a majority of the pro lifers are GOP, it's a GOP position.  They are accused of being inconsistent.  I'm trying to justify the inconsistencies.

No,definitely not. But by the logic that you are providing for abortion,it would seem that you think rape is OK.

If you support abortion you support rape. Not sure of the leap but you obviously hate women having rights.

Not really accurate.

Anti-abortion advocates are pro fetal rights to varying degrees.

Pro-Abortion are for the restriction of fetal rights to varying degrees.

If I make a law that anyone white should be murdered. Would that be enough basis to issue the death penalty on them because it is law to murder white people so would the white person in this hypothetical be an innocent life?

What is innocence and what are crimes, other than concepts loosely associated with some sort of collective decision making process.

It would be an extremely unjustified and racist law and wouldn't last.  Despite that, whites wouldn't be innocent under the law.  There should and will be a rebellion by the whites and their supporters for equal rights to non-whites.

Being innocent is not having any crimes against you.  A crime is breaking the law.

That wasn't what I had a problem with.
You have laid out an innocent life is a person who did not commit a crime. I say what about if it was illegal to be white? Would that person be innocent under that law?

Do you want to adjust what you consider to be innocent life or do you want me to give a real life example so that you are forced to change it? It would come to no surprise what I would be using as a real life example.
