No, the framing should be around the women's right to bodily autonomy. In Florida, they have a "stand your ground" law. If someone threatens your life, or even great bodily harm, you are allowed to use lethal force.
Giving birth is a life threatening process. Even under fairly routine births, women endure significant bodily harm, often irreversible. Look up prolapse. Your organs literally push out of you vagina. This impacts 20-35% of women and for many of them this condition is permanent.
If you are allowed to shoot someone in Florida because they threatened your bodily autonomy, why shouldn't a women be allowed to terminate a pregnancy for the same reason?
