Maximilien Robespierre (1758-1794) was one of the leaders and orators of the French Revolution of 1789, best known for his involvement in the Reign of Terror that followed.

As a young man, he studied law and had a reputation for honesty and compassion. He sought to abolish the death penalty and refused to pronounce a required death sentence after becoming a judge.

But as the revolution approached, Robespierre became head of the powerful Jacobin Club, a radical group advocating exile or death for France's nobility. In 1792, after Paris mobs stormed the palace of the Tuileries and dethroned King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, Robespierre helped organize the new revolutionary governing body, the Commune of Paris.

ra1l [238]
<span>There is evidence that the monumental decision in Roe v. Wade in 1973 had a direct impact on crime years later. If more poor and unwed women were able to end their pregnancies, fewer poor children were being born into lives of neglect and poverty. Since crime is a natural outgrowth of being poor and disadvantaged, and unwanted, there would be less crime because those people never existed.</span>
