I don't think anyone is saying to take away the title 'human being', but if a person is convicted of a criminal offense, they lose rights. Part of the 5th amendment "nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;". They were given due process and now they have only one right. The right to life. Everything else is a priviledge.
