Excellent piece. It is odd how the “pro-choice” movement censors debate and tries to shutdown democracy. Guess, they never were for choice to begin with.

The majority of media are secular and lack any decent morals. They prefer to paint anyone who stands for decency and against the murder of unborn as bigots. When facts prove them wrong they are silent. We see that with much of the leftist media having egg all over their face with the global warming scam. If it was 5 people trying to save the turtle the ABC would of been there in numbers.

Runner: I couldn’t agree more. The media is “never wrong” and turtles are more valuable than inconvenient babies with little fingernails. The Australian Associated Press (APP) appears to be an activist group – and have thrown journalistic ethics under the bus.

Sheesh, so the free press did not just fall for the activities of
a paid for lobby group, which seemingly has a clear agenda to
influence public policy?

Tutt-tutt, just shows that the press is free after all

So the anti abortion group has been reduced to a rag tag group of religious zealots on the fringe of society.

As society has become largely secular and does not share your religious dogma (morals according to runner) you are regarded by the majority as at best quaint, but of no consequence.

Most people would be more interested in the weather.

Good article. The lack of interest by the media in issues like this is astounding really. I don't think it has anything to do a distaste for religious views as they constantly ask the opinion of the church leaders on many other issues which have nothing to do with religion, including euthanasia, and shopping hours in western Australia. I cannot believe that there is virtually no debate on this issue. In response to Shadow minister, the killing of unborn babies has much to do with religious zealotry as killing born babies. Absolutely nothing. It is time society re-examined this issue and realised that the justifications that once applied to abortion are no longer relevant.
