In the 1980’s and 90’s, thousands of Americans directly resisted the power of the abortion behemoth and went to jail. There was a real possibility of major damage to the abortion law and a chance of returning to pre-Roe status.

Then, the police went brutal, the religious leaders went wobbly (with some few exceptions) and the power then turned in individuals (RICO).

I have no hope that anything could change today from that doleful episode. I did have a brief time of renewed hope in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 for a deep repentance for our national slaughter of the innocents. I thought that it might be a spiritual awakening. That, of course, did not happen.

That sad episode in out history clarified for me the fact that the only thing pro-life women and pro-choice women disagree on is "abortion."
