The airwaves, the newspapers
and the TV news and others went apoplectic over a press release by Real Women.
If words could kill, [1] Real Women
would be dead and buried.
The National Post of August
7, 2013 in an article headlined: “John Baird’s defence of gay rights ‘highly
offensive,’ conservative women’s group says” by Jake Edmiston. The article
stated:
“Last week, Mr. Baird revealed that he had
attempted, in eight closed-door meetings, to convince the Russian government
not to move forward with a law that banned gay pride rallies and the spreading
of information about gay choices to minors.” The article went on to quote Mr.
Baird as saying: ‘It is an incitement to
intolerance, which breeds hate,…’ Baird
is not a Russian politician and is not elected by the Russian people. But, he
is Minister of Foreign Affairs perhaps that gives him the right to criticize
other countries? Still, people who live in glass houses should not throw
stones, as the saying goes.
Here in “civilized” Canada people
are not allowed to “propagandize” within a certain radius, outside abortion clinics
even though human lives are being cut to pieces, suctioned out or decapitated.
Is that not a “hate” crime and does it not smack of “intolerance” and protection
of depraved acts? So far I haven’t heard Mr. Baird speak out on that or the
so-called mainstream “investigative” media either, they are too busy
criticizing Real Women.
In fact, Anthony Furey in the
Ottawa Sun of August
10, 2013 wrote this:
“REAL Women of Canada need a reality check….
Drop the double standard and just accept that Canada stands
up for all human rights.” [2]
I believe it is Mr. Furey who
needs a “reality check.” He says, “…Canada stands up for all human
rights.” Anybody with half a brain knows this is baloney. 491 babies were born
alive after abortionists failed to kill them [3] and most of the media in Canada have buried the story. No
“human rights” for these little ones or the other innocents slaughtered in the
name of “choice.” No media frenzy over
rights for them, only hypocrisy from the media and most of the politicians.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper
chose to speak out on human rights in Canada
and Russia.
This headline: “Harper speaks out against
Russia’s
anti-gay law” [4]
“Stephen Harper has waded into the controversy over Russia’s new
anti-gay law.
Speaking in Miramichi, N.B., the prime minister said
Canadians expect his government to defend human rights….” [4]
“I think it’s important to recognize there are
some controversies in this matter, but the reality is that our position is that
we don’t imprison or kill people for acts committed freely between adults,” [4[
“We don’t imprison people for their expressing
political positions….”[4]
(What about the
human rights of Mary Wagner and Linda Gibbons who have been imprisoned many
times for merely protesting the killing of babies outside abortuaries.)
I believe Harper’s words
should win him a prize for hypocrisy.
Mr. Harper along with Mr.
Baird and other politicians in Canada
voted against finding out when human life begins and will not even defend the
human rights of the 491 babies born alive after failed killings. [3] Then were left to die.
It takes courage and human
decency to do the right thing, I believe this is lacking in the Harper
government and in most of the politicians in Canada’s parliament. They are
selective when it comes to “human rights” as are most of the media as witness
their latest frenzy against Real Women.
