This is a bad analogy. The proper analogy would be does he view a woman who gets an abortion in the same way he'd view his wife walking up and shooting his son.
How I view someone who has an abortion totally depends on why. Was the pregnancy a threat to her life? Did the baby have a severe birth defect and it would have been more cruel to allow the child to be born? Was she raped? Was she 12 when she got pregnant.
All of those scenarios are very different from the typical woman who has an abortion. The CDC keeps data on this. The majority of women who have abortions in the US are white, middle class women in their 20's who are not having them for health reasons or because the child has a birth defect. The majority of abortions in this country are of healthy babies by women who have the means to support them. Go check out the CDC stats on this.
