The bumper sticker says, "If You Can't Trust Me With A Choice, How Can You Trust Me with a Child?"

There are some choices no one should be "trusted" with in the sense that the decision is up to them. One of them is the choice to kill innocent human beings. Further, no one is "trusting" the mother with a child. She doesn't need permission to get pregnant. Because of the nature of motherhood, this is properly out of the state's control. If it were in the control of the state, many would be denied that trust.
