·        Guests:

1.       Michael Hirsch, Paul Hill’s attorney who witnessed Paul’s execution, joins Mark Crutcher. They discuss Paul, his “trial,” his execution, etc. Hirsch says he went to law school because he believes abortion will be outlawed in his lifetime, that he foresees that there will be trials similar to the Nuremburg Trials, for the abortionists and their accomplices, and that he wants to be the prosecuting attorney.

2.       Father Frank Pavone, Director of Priests for Life, and Reverend Sonny Foraker, Director of Pastors for Life join Mark Crutcher to discuss the execution of Paul Hill.

A.      Discussion of where the responsibility lies for Hill’s actions and for the environment that creates a Paul Hill.

B.      Discussion of the failure of the church to effectively intervene on behalf of the unborn.

C.      Discussion of the difference between stopping abortions and stopping abortion. Paul Hill stopped some abortions that would have occurred that day, but his actions hurt the effort to stop abortion.
