Pro-lifers responded with joy in the aftermath of the US Supreme Court ruling which defends the lives of unborn babies.
As expected, the court overturned the 1973 ruling, known as Roe v. Wade, which had effectively legalised abortion throughout America for almost 50 years.
In overturning the ruling, the court declared that there is no constitutional right to abortion and each individual state is free to decide its own laws.
