"How can they have freedom be one of their foundational guides, but think restrictions on what women do with their bodies is alright?"
A small cluster of cells is not yet a baby.
Not to mention that childbirth can be deadly for either party involved on a good day. It's naive to think that every fetus is going to come into the world alive. I have personally known people who aborted a fetus that they desperately wanted because it was essentially non-viable, and not worth the risk to the mother. They later had several other healthy children, who would not have existed had that aborted birth been traumatic enough.
