This is why we fight abortion -
Roe v Wade removes "respect" from our lives.
Roe vs. Wade has made us a nation that fails to protect its sons and daughters because they live in their mother and a nation that uses the violence of abortion to solve our social ills. The law degrades motherhood and the notion of unconditional love as we seek only perfect children. It teaches children that "wantedness" is all that matters - all others are disposable. The law emasculates men who want to protect their children but empowers irresponsible men who use women as sex objects.
Roe v Wade

section describing abortion law by trimesters
“To summarize and to repeat:
1. A state criminal abortion statute of the current Texas type, that excepts from criminality only a lifesaving procedure on behalf of the mother, without regard to pregnancy stage and without recognition of the other interests involved, is violative of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
(a) For the stage prior to approximately the end of the first trimester, the abortion decision and its effectuation must be left to the medical judgment of the pregnant woman's attending physician.
(b) For the stage subsequent to approximately the end of the first trimester, the State, in promoting its interest in the health of the mother, may, if it chooses, regulate the abortion procedure in ways that are reasonably related to maternal health.
(c) For the stage subsequent to viability, the State in promoting its interest in the potentiality of human life may, if it chooses, regulate, and even proscribe, abortion except where it is necessary, in appropriate medical judgment, for the preservation of the life or health of the mother.
Doe v Bolton
Companion bill to Roe v Wade, broadly defining the word "health" referred to in Roe v Wade, thus providing the abortion-on-demand loophole.
“...that the medical judgment may be exercised in the light of all factors --physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman's age -- relevant to the wellbeing of the patient. All these factors may relate to health.”

Sandra Cano “Mary Doe” of Doe v Bolton
Sandra Cano never had or wanted an abortion; she never testified in court in the Doe v. Bolton case; she didn’t then and doesn’t now support abortion.
In fact, in 2003, Ms. Cano went to court in an effort to reverse Doe v. Bolton.
