On the Second Anniversary of Norma McCorvey’s Death, the Fight Against Abortion Continues

We missed one yesterday, folks. In and amongst all the sound and fury of the Smollett “hate crime” debacle sucking all the air out of the room, a significant anniversary occurred. Two years ago yesterday, Norma McCorvey, “Roe,” in the landmark abortion case, Roe v Wade, passed away.

McCorvey’s journey from useful tool of the left, to an outspoken opponent of abortion was a long one full of twists and turns. The most significant twist was when as described by McCorvey in her book she saw a fetal development poster and at that time it hit her that, in her words from her book, “Won by Love,”

Yet something in that poster made me lose my breath. I kept seeing the picture of that tiny, 10-week-old embryo, and I said to myself, that’s a baby! It’s as if blinders just fell off my eyes and I suddenly understood the truth—that’s a baby!

Ms McCorvey ultimately became a Catholic and spent her time actively supporting pro-life efforts. As I noted here, we can expect the leftists to ignore her, now that she has served their purpose. Our team however, needs to do better.

RIP Miss Norma
