    No, this has always been about control. They get to decide who lives and who dies, not women, which is why the pro-life types are always also pro death penalty.

      In my country they’re anti-death-penalty, courtesy of Catholicism. I hate how they made ectopic pregnancies into death sentences but props to them for consistency I guess.
