Last weekend, renowned pro-life Supreme Court Justice Antonin Sclalia passed away. Scalia was one of the minority of judges on the nation’s highest court who is pro-life and supports overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that allowed virtually unlimited abortions.
Today, thousands of people lined up to pay their respects to Justice Scalia. Below are some images and videos that help recall and remember the pro-life hero we lost.
Marjorie Dannenfelser of the Susan B. Anthony List summed up how pro-life people are reflecting today on Justice Scalia.
“Justice Scalia’s legacy in defending the constitution and the right to life of the unborn child was powerful and we pray directional. He was a protector of every right enshrined in the Constitution. He had the conscience of the court when it comes to honoring its intent,” she said.
