“…never had an abortion.” And “she converted to Christianity.”

McCorvey then began working for the anti-abortion movement.”

“Lawyers for McCorvey filed a motion with the US District Court in Dallas in 2003 to have the decision overturned and asked the court to consider new evidence that abortion hurts women."

Get real. She's was a pawn and gladly so, that resulted in millions of deaths.

She makes Stalin look like a piker. If you believe in the tenets of Christianity then is there enough repentance in the history of the world? Therein lies the question.

I feel abortions have caused more mental anguish to our society than any other single event. Think about it....how many human beings can take a human life without some kind of mental consequences. You can put all kinds of "window dressing" on the word baby but a human is a human. Even Mrs. McCorvey came too this conclusion later in life and she only had a 9th grade education. She tried later in life to reverse this decision (roe vs wade) of course, MSM never gave it the coverage it deserved. RIP, Jane Roe.

She played the other side of the issue when it was able to keep her in the limelight. This person was not a saved soul who came to an honest conversion.

Get real......she even lied about being raped.

Read about it here

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...=.3a58aaee1e0a

"Ms. McCorvey supported herself in part through honoraria, book royalties and other income she generated from her role in the abortion debate. By 2013, according to Prager’s article in Vanity Fair, Ms. McCorvey was relying on “free room and board from strangers.”

I don't know what was in Mrs. McCorvey heart, I will give her the benefit of the doubt. But I do know the length the MSM will go to slant a story that doesn't fit their agenda.

if you saw some of these babies that were born from drug infested mother's you would probably be in favor of forced abortion's, and if you asked me they should double up and abort the mother as well.

its really not fair to the baby to be brought into this world under the condition's they will have to go through their whole life. i think they do this type of stuff in China already. from the bottom of my heart i know this is a rotten way to think and travel, but if you don't nip the problems at the bud you will eventually have no country whether you are a liberal or a conservative.

I'm not against all abortions. I just think there should be some kind of a legal process for all people that are involved before you take a life. I think it would be good for the Mother's well being and also the unborn.

I vote Republican 99% of the time but disagree with their abortion stance. While it should be an avenue of last resort, I don't see how any good can come out of forcing a women to have a child she does not want. Even ladies happy to be pregnant can be a handful to deal with. How many originally nice women evolve into vindictive snakes when going through a divorce? Image what 9 months of forcing an unwanted pregnancy to term does? If the women does not take care of herself and get proper prenatal care you can ruin two lives. If you outlaw abortions you are punishing someone for having sex.

Her change is consistent with the opinions of virtually every parent who intentionally aborts their children. They later life is lived with deep regret and great sorrow.

To me it should not be a federal issue other than the late term abortions that are terminated outside or partial berth terminations often with scissors. That should be outlawed nation wide. The rest should be for states to decide. Or if there is to be a federal law it should be granting all rights to the woman for the first X number of months. The decision should always rest with a doctor to save the life of the mother at all costs and at any point. The truth is there are so few cases that really are to save the mother that it should not even be a debate.
