We are plagued with a bunch of conservative authoritarian worshippers who's default mode is to punish. If they can control a women's womb by regulating access to care, regardless of that women's rights under the law or the misery and violence visited upon her, they will all jump at the chance to exact punishment.

They are control freaks with no sense of boundaries, empathy or basic manners. People must be punished for their perceived sins whether that punishment be financial and/or physical and a lifetime in duration.

The humane treatment of women who choose to abort, for whatever reason, is not an option unless of course they can prove they are victims of a violent crime, authoritarians love victims and will feed off of the ego boost they get from their faux compassion.

Because in the end it is always just about them.
