Yup, boarder towns in red states are going to start stopping women as they travel through their towns to make sure they aren’t pregnant.

    I haven’t considered that. Thank you for the context. I suppose the current European system is a bit of a tense stalemate/compromise because there are definitely many organisations around European counties, not to mention the Catholic and Orthodox Church, that are advocating for abortion to be banned.

      From what (little) I understand of the very diverse political landscape in Europe, the anti-abortion argument doesn’t have the support to make it much other than a liability (though I think there’s exceptions like Poland) - better to keep that one quiet, not scare would-be supporters that you’ll take their rights, and focus on more effective distractions like stoking racial animosity.
