- Why should anyone bother with your sources when the text of Roe clearly
- refutes your assertion?

- From Roe v. Wade:
- "On the basis of elements such as these, appellants and some *amici*

- terminate her pregnancy at whatever time, in whatever way, and for
- whatever reasons she alone chooses. With this we do not agree."
