Does making abortion a capital crime in Florida manifest God's love?

Abolish Abortion Florida has initiated a petition drive to amend the Florida Constitution making seeking or performing an abortion Murder in the First Degree, punishable by Death. Is this congruent with a religion that promotes a Loving God?

Aside from the ridiculous unconstitutionality of what they want, there is also this:
Their change would make ATTEMPTING to "perform or procure abortion" a capital offense.
They are literally talking about executing pregnant women - AND their "unborn children" - for trying to get an abortion.

----------
This has slightly better than zero chance of getting on the ballot. But only slightly.
And zero chance of actually passing.

Just off hand, I'd say "NO" one of many answers would be here: John 8:3-11, which when I re-read it looks like a direct answer to that question, and I don't care whether I get any point or not.

yes dear, because people murdering the innocent for convenience's sake is wrong, dear.

yes, it does, from the standpoint that God loves all, and every person that's in the womb is loved by Him, and He wants them to live and fulfill His purpose for their life. Please keep in mind that this is not a fair discussion, since everyone that is arguing for free and available abortions is already born. Let's ask the unborn what they think.

I always think it strange that those who are most vehemently "pro-life" regarding abortion are also strongly in favour of capital punishment and guns
