As Twitchy told you, earlier this week, Linda Sarsour thought she had pro-lifers backed into a corner with this scorching-hot take on the Alabama anti-abortion bill:

I am trying to understand how you can be pro-life and pro-death penalty at the same time. ?? — Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) May 15, 2019

It’s actually pretty easy to see the gaping holes in Sarsour’s argument, but NowThis has apparently figured out a way to miss them:

Just 24 hours after Alabama’s governor signed the nation’s most restrictive anti-abortion bill into law, the ‘pro-life’ state is scheduled to kill a man by lethal injection. pic.twitter.com/LqxtJetJXC — NowThis (@nowthisnews) May 17, 2019

And your point would be … what, exactly? Because like Sarsour’s argument, NowThis’ attempted gotcha isn’t so much a gotcha as it is a logical faceplant.

Did the unborn babies also kill a man, a woman, and the woman's two young daughters? Because if not, I'm failing to see the comparison point. https://t.co/ZM6lGs8Ji7 — Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) May 17, 2019

At least the killer had received due process and had his day in court. Fetuses don't even get a public defender to advocate for them. — wordsmith cat (@I_am_not_E) May 17, 2019

Alternate headline: Alabama bans many forms of baby killing, and now is seeking to punish a man who murdered two children (6 and 7) along with their mother and her fiancee. https://t.co/YdHeFTd4Wn — Neil Stevens (@presjpolk) May 17, 2019

He personally slit the throat of one of the two little girls. — Neil Stevens (@presjpolk) May 17, 2019

Say their names, @nowthisnews Say the names of Chelsea Nicole Hunt, Chelsea Marie Hunt, Dedra Hunt, and Randy Duke. — Neil Stevens (@presjpolk) May 17, 2019

"This man killed 4 people and got the death sentence, let's compare this to killing innocent babies and rake up them retweets" — Wittorical (@Wittorical) May 17, 2019

NowThis, you are embarrassing yourself defending a quadruple murderer. The two are connected only in your mind. — Art Berkowitz (@artbcpa) May 17, 2019

Because these are totally the same thing……. pic.twitter.com/iHXmuDlOUb — TakeItSleezy (@SalvinY84) May 17, 2019

No distinction at all between innocent babies and guilty convicts. — Razor (@hale_razor) May 17, 2019

Let me say it slowly: 1 is guilty.

1 is innocent. Now, one more time: 1 is guilty.

1 is innocent. Repeat. It’ll make sense eventually. — No Apologies Allowed (@NAAWeeklyComics) May 17, 2019

I don't agree with the abortion law. At all. That said. A clearly convicted killer getting executed? Do it — Densuo el Salado (@Densuo) May 17, 2019

I'm heavily against the death penalty, but I'm also not dumb enough to think there's total equivalence between the two. — Victoria T. (@desertskulls) May 17, 2019

Try again….?‍♂️ — Mike Labuguen (@MikeLabuguen) May 17, 2019

That isn't comparable. Don't even try — Juan (@LFC_JuanB) May 17, 2019

You’re really choosing this as a comparison? — Spike (@olddaddy123) May 17, 2019

This might be the dumbest comparison I have ever seen! — Jerry B (@bloxman1) May 17, 2019

Being conceived is on par with killing two adults and two children? Please explain the hypocrisy — KD6-3.7 (@ShaneeMc) May 17, 2019

The real hypocrisy is on the part of radical pro-aborts like those at NowThis.
