Should we add something about how Roe had the kid and became pro-life? I can imagine how it's not relevant, but I can also picture it both relevant and interesting--"Shut up, Brx." 02:48, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

If you have a reference for it, throw a sentence or two in somewhere. Sam Tally-ho! 02:59, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
References are easy to come by. My personal bias is to say no, cause this article is really about the case and Ms. Jane Roe, not Ms. McCorvey . She gave birth because she was not allowed to abort (the reason she went to court). Her pro-life stance is important to the Right, cause they have a model "it was right for me, but not you" type speaker. If you do add it, the cites are pretty easy for us to find.--Pink mowse.pngGodotMoi j'dis, laisse beton 03:03, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Oh, he said how "Roe had the kid," not a Ms. McCorvey. I dunno. Whatevs. Sam Tally-ho! 03:14, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
To protect her rights, McCorvey was shielded as Jane Roe; because texas law denied her the right to an abortion, she sued the state. Due to crazy ass american laws, you have to be **currently effected** by the laws, to sue against it, so no "might be pregnant" woman could sue. It had to be a pregnant woman. Of course, law suits take 2 years. McCorvey had her child before the first trial ended. I *think* she gave it up for adoption, but am not sure. either way, she now claims she never wanted the abortion in the first place, and even if she did want the abortion, god prevented her from having it so no one else should have one either. And the right just loves her! --Pink mowse.pngGodotMoi j'dis, laisse beton 03:42, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
