War kills people.
Some might think that pro-life only applies to abortion - and not killing babies.
Some might think that the "BIBLE" says it's okay to have a war.
But whoever had that bumper sticker - thinks just like I do. War kills people. So you can't be pro-LIFE and pro-War. Unless you are a hypocrite. (Like our president)
Get it?

You can be both because the difference is in definition of the actions.
Pro-war - You are for the killing of those who oppose your cause.
Pro-abortion - You are against murder.
Murder is unjustly taking a life. Killing can be done in self defense or in the case of killing an enemy soldier.
Before anyone says anything, I am pro-choice and against the war. If I felt the war was for a good cause, I would be behind it 100%. To kill an enemy soldier is not the same as murdering someone in cold blood.

You can because
Lets say your country is in a war and they are sustaining many looses, they will need many new lives to continue the war and the aftermath.
You can't do both because
Lets say your country is in a war and they are not loosing any lives, they will need less new lives to continue the war and the aftermath.

To be pro war doesn't mean you want to kill...it means you believe your cause is just and worth fighting for and sometimes that means killing other people to protect your country and family. To abort a child is totally different as the child is not a threat, unless your life is in danger having the baby.

There are no real reasons, Pro-Life (no abortions, its murder) Pro-War (you murder people) its not the same thing but people try to make them the same.
Its a good stab mostly at right-wing people who agree abortion should be illegal but support the president on the war in Iraq.

If you're pro life, you're not supposed to support the genocide in Iraq and Afghanistan (pro-war).

Pro life gives a person a chance to grow and live.
Who says you can't be both? I am for life and I am for defending our country.

Pro-war means you are for killing human beings, and pro-life means you are for the life of all human beings. You cannot be both without making you look hypocritical and insensible.

It is a stupid bumper sticker. No one is Pro-War.

Hey Greenie, That doesn't mean you are pro-war. That is a matter of defense. That is most certainly a pro-life issue. Keep on livin' man.
