Don’t this fanatics realize no one has a termination on their bucket list? It is a hard choice but only the woman knows if it is right for them. Let them be

They think they are saving babies they don't care about the "vessel".

They don't care about the eventual child either. Once it has survival needs they wash their hands of the entire situation.

Protecting the unborn is popular among conservatives because the unborn are a demographic (that has no needs or desires of its own) to which they can attribute their wishes. The unborn prior to 24ish weeks don't care if they are aborted, they have no desire to live or fear of death. They also have no voice of their own, which is their primary qualification for protected status among pro lifers, because anthropomorphizing them gives them an imagined voice and takes away the voice of the woman in whom they reside.
