I could honestly not blame a man for killing every member of a jury that had his wife executed for aborting a baby that resulted from rape or incest.

Name one mainstream, reputable American pro-life group that has suggested that women who abort ought to be executed, even if rape or incest had nothing to do with it.

Could you blame someone who killed a child at a bus stop because his mom was raped?

I think I understand your feelings - HOWEVER - is that baby less a human because of what a man (presumably) did? It would certainly be painful, but would it be less painful for that person, assuming she had a conscience, kill the baby (also a victim) and live the rest of her life with that on her conscience.

Abortions have always been available to women. Yes, doctors and the mothers were running the risk of being prosecuted, but they happened nonetheless. These were not the 'coathanger in a back alley' horrors we hear from the pro-abortionists. They just were not encouraged and funded (through organizations) by the federal government, therefore, they happened much less frequently. Since they were not sanctioned by the government, the rest of the people in the country did not share in the guilt - now we do.

She took an innocent life. Should she be free to kill any other children the rapist may have? Does where they are in the growth cycle matter?

Doing the right thing is rarely easy, comfortable or even without great pain. The right thing is still the right thing.

In any case I doubt it would ever become a death penalty case as she, it would be argued, was under severe emotional stress at the time.
