Pro-lifers must answer Dobbs with civility and compassion

Violence, protests, and unhinged uproar. That is what Washington, D.C., has been consumed with ever since the illegally leaked Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization opinion came to light. Pro-abortion activists have taken to the streets and to the neighborhoods of Supreme Court justices to try and intimidate them and keep the monstrous Roe v. Wade law on the books. Now that the Dobbs decision has been made public and the overturning of Roe is complete, we need to think about the aftermath and where that leaves the pro-life movement in a post-Roe America.

I see two possible routes for the fight for life after Dobbs. We will either take the win and move on, or we will understand that the real fight lies ahead. We cannot be complacent with Roe being overturned because, despite what the radical activists are saying, abortion is still legal in this country. So that means the challenge moves to states.
