US policies which severely limit access to abortions amount to torture, Kate Gilmore, the UN’s deputy high commissioner of human rights has said. “We have not called it out in the same way we have other forms of extremist hate, but this is gender-based violence against women, no question,” Ms Gilmore said. “It’s clear it’s torture – it’s a deprivation of a right to health,” she added, according to The Guardian.

I'm not sure if it people's myopic religious belief, Political opportunism, or merely self importance that leads individuals to force anti-abortion laws onto others. Clearly, these same people might also be inclined to be as strongly against War, as so many human lives with beating hearts have their lives prematurely ended. Whether Capitalist, Communist, Christian, Jew, Moslum, White, Black, etc.
It actually seems to be just the opposite, where the anti-abortion people are also filled with self-importance concerning Economics, Politics, Religion, etc to the point of killing others to get what they want.
