Both of those are generally viewed through an ideologic (rhymes with idiotic, coincidence?) lens. To people with such a lens often reason is treason.
In the gun control issue, proponents believe banning guns will save lives.
In the abortion control issue, proponents believe banning abortions will save lives.
Both are true. So long as the scope is limited to lives lost to guns and lives lost to abortions. The world is vastly more complicated though.

Thats like saying its ideology that has us set speed limits on highways and school zones. Or its ideology that doesn't allow you to have campfires in california drought zones, or drink over the age of 18/21 years old.
No, the abortion issue comes directly from one group of people thinking killing babies is wrong, while the other side of the argument knows killing babies protects families and individuals from hardships, as well as prevents people from harming themselves to having their own illegal abortions when you outlaw it.
The democrats look at how people act, and make laws based off of that data.
Republican sides of the argument do it because they think baby killing is the devil's work and evil.
You need to understand this basic point to understand the two sides at war in our nation.
One, relies on data & is reactionary. The other Pre-emptive & ideological.
