The person in the notorious Roe vs. Wade case was not named Roe at all - her name was Norma McCorvey. Jane Roe was just a pseudonym. It was her case that got taken to the Supreme Court and resulted in the legalizing of abortion.
In the 1990s, Norma McCorvey started working for Operation Rescue, against abortion. She no longer believes abortion should be legal.
Now, that's one person who we should be asking about what changed her mind. And if the person who first asked for abortion to be legalized is now against it's legalization, shouldn't we take that as a hint? I was actually very excited to find out this information.
