Never Give In

Today is meaningful as a fulfillment of my life's work, of 30-some years.  It's not a final victory, by any means. But reversing Roe v. Wade was a goal, a marker.  Not the beginning of the end, but the end of the beginning, as Winston Churchill said.  And giving a check to whatever joy and relief may be found, is remembering the thousands of pre-natal children ever the years, children whose mothers dismissed or ignored my pleas to let them live and my offers of help so that the mothers may more easily do so.  All that happening as they passed me by at the abortion sites in Asheville. As of today, the battle has changed, but the killing will continue into the foreseeable future.Now that Roe is no more, after a brief tantrum, pro-abortion activists and politicians will quickly shift to the new fronts.  And, they believe they have their issue for the upcoming November elections.  I have spoken and written thousands and thousands of words on this subject.  At this point, I have said all that must be said.

“Women’s March on Asheville” & “Bans Off Our Bodies”

Press Statement by Meredith Eugene Hunt

For the occasion of the “Women’s March on Asheville” and “Bans Off Our Bodies” rallies in Asheville, North Carolina today, May 14, 2022:

“Pro-abortion reaction to Alito’s draft ruling is mass social hysteria.  Nothing they say, nor how loud they say it changes the reality of abortion hurting a mother and killing a baby.  Absolute “bodily autonomy” is violent and brutal when it means removing a pre-natal child from their natural environment, where they are perfectly viable. A child who only wants to be loved.

“The tragic part of Alito’s draft is it doesn’t recognize the humanity and personhood of pre-natal human beings.  It merely undoes the legal travesty that was Roe v. Wade, something the court should have done 30 years ago with the PP v. Casey decision. Pro-abortion people are declaring contempt for a Supreme Court that no longer affirms destroying a life.  But Justice Alito’s draft is persuasive.  It throws the “issue” of abortion back to the states because abortion never was a constitutional right.

“If the majority of the Court holds to Alito’s draft, the angry, absurd rhetoric to intimidate judges and lawmakers will continue in state legislatures.  The effort to drown and demonize voices who speak for women and children will intensify.  Our nation protected the enslavement of human beings for 200 years. The South relied upon slavery. It took a negation of a Supreme Court decision and war between states to end slavery

“Until we all recognize the personhood of pre-natal human beings, while also accommodating the unique nature of women, the division and conflict will only grow.”
