Media Release 9 June 2022
The angry and strident, delusional pro-abortion advocates in New Zealand not only deny the right to life of children in the womb, support the violence of abortion against women, believe that every woman has the right to kill her child before it is born, but now are also disrespectful of the rule of law and the democratic process in the United States by attacking the United States Supreme Court.
ALRANZ, a small vocal group have drafted a letter (see link here) to be presented to the US ambassador attacking the US Supreme Court for allegedly illegally posing a threat to the civil and human rights of United States citizens.
It is outrageous and disgraceful that this small group should attack the Supreme Court in the United States because they fear that the Court is considering overturning the notorious Roe v Wade decision which in 1973 inflicted on American women and their precious unborn a reign of terror and bloodshed that has resulted in the violent killing of more than 64 million innocent and defenceless unborn children. Why does ALRANZ approve of this killing and is terrified that it might stop?
The Supreme Court is expected to overturn Roe v Wade a decision written by Justice Harry Blackmun in 1973 which constitutes one of the most unjust decisions made by the Court. It was badly decided by ill-informed men and had no basis in the constitution the law or history of the United States or in English Common Law. International law is silent on abortion and there is no human right to abortion.
The overthrow of Roe Wade will then acknowledge the right of States to legislate to protect their unborn children from being killed before birth. There are 19 States that would ban abortion and 7 that would severely restrict abortion. Why is ALRANZ opposed to the States legislating to protect their women and the lives of their unborn?
The ALRANZ letter has been signed by Jan Logie MP, Green Party. There were 198 other signatories whose names have been kept secret. It is believed that among this number there were many MPs.
Right to Life believes that it is improper and disgraceful for an MP to sign a letter to the US government criticising the US Supreme Court for acting illegally and violating human rights. Right to Life intends to write to the Speaker, the Right Hon. Trevor Mallard, requesting that he should investigate this serious matter.
The letter was also signed by the School of Population Health at the Auckland University. This is a taxpayer funded organisation and Right to Life believes that is highly improper and disgraceful for it to sign this letter attacking the US Supreme Court. The Abortion Providers Group representing the abortion industry in New Zealand also signed. They are fearful that the anticipated abortion law reform with recognition of the humanity of the unborn child and increased protection for women and unborn children would be a serious threat to their industry.
