I think one thing that gets overlooked is that the US actually has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the world.

Pretty much the USA and China are top of the list.

Europeon laws on average are FAR more restrictive, and the cut off date to get an abortion is far sooner.

A LOT of Western Europeon countries put the ban on abortions at 12 weeks.

 

Let alone the various hoops you have to do to get an abortion.   Needing specific reasons or they won't give it to you, talking to a psychologist, proving your poor etc.

Abortion activism is a lot like gun activism in the US.  Quite different due to american's greater value in individuality.
