Treating Prolifers as Terrorists




One news item puts it this way:







Because I have been travelling the past two days I have not been able to monitor all this properly. So this is a sketchy initial report. I will provide more and fuller updates in the near future. In the meantime, we can certainly complain to the authorities here.

  1. I hope some good may come off this via the adverse publicity generated by the ban that may make intelligent people wonder why he would be considered such a ‘threat”.

    Have signed this petition asking him to be allowed in.

    This is a petition to ban him

  2. Hi, Bill. Thanks for the article and the link to the ministers email address. I have sent him a short note suggesting he let Mr Troy Newman in and let the Australian people hear him out and decide on the morality of murdering unborn babies or giving them a chance at life.

  3. Bill…my understanding was that he took Southwest Airlines out of Denver. Safe passage for yourself and hope other Pro-life Aussies are able to have this travesty overturned! I wondered how 500+ signatures were able to effect this visa cancellation without anyone knowing about it in advance? Very Fishy!

  4. This seems very uncharacteristic of Mr Dutton. What is going on? There must be more going on behind the scenes.
    I just wrote Dutton and told him the Liberal Party has definitely lost my vote.

  5. Thank GOD I did not vote for the Liberal party so this is not staining my hands.

  6. Think that Mr Newman could be confidentially directed by Luke 10.
    particularly with verses 10 – 12.


    12 I tell you, on the great Day it will be more bearable for Sodom than for that town.”

    As for us Australians verse 12 is more than appropriate.

  7. The cancellation of Mr Newman’s visa at the 11th hour, when he had already begun his journey to Australia, is disgraceful as it has an impact on Mr Newman personally as well as on the organisers of the RTL convention in Melbourne who are left without their keynote speaker at very short notice.

    Still, I am puzzled about the allegations that Mr Newman has argued for the execution of those performing abortions if found guilty. These allegations are denied by Operation Rescue but are reported repeatedly by the media, yet it seems no journalist has investigated the allegations and provided chapter and verse for what Mr Newman actually wrote or said. I hope he has not been careless with his words in the past and so given the pro-choice cause a free kick.

  8. Since I live in the adjoining electorate to Peter Dutton in Brisbane, I phoned his Dickson electorate office to lodge my complaint. There I was told that if it was an immigration issue I had to phone him in Canberra at my expense as they could not divert my call.

    I phoned Canberra at peak-hour rates and the woman listened to me but she could not give me the reasons why Troy Newman’s visa was cancelled, but did say she had received quite a few phone calls about this matter. Peter Dutton was not in the office and I could not speak to an adviser. Talk about fob offs!

    So I phoned Teresa in the Brisbane Cherish Life office who said that Troy had found a way to Australia and we held in ‘detention’ while his appeal was heard in the high court. Teresa said that Troy had been granted a visa 2 months before he was due to fly to Aust. but he was told of the cancellation of the visa by airline officials when he boarded the flight, Denver to LA.

    Since I learned that an Emily List MP, Terri Butler, Griffith electorate (I think that was Kevin Rudd’s seat) was one of the people who objected to Dutton’s office, considering Troy was a threat, I phoned her office and could not speak with her or an adviser. But the person who answered the phone sure knew why Terri was objecting to Troy’s ‘murderous’ claims. I challenged her but got nowhere. She wasn’t listening to the content of my message. I phoned the Griffith office after phoning Terri’s Canberra office and the phone rang out before it was answered by a parliament house person. She told me Terri was back in her electorate. That’s not what the person in the electorate told me.

    Late Wed night I had sent email to a number of politicians, including my local MP in Petrie, Luke Howarth. I gave my phone and email details, but have not heard from one of them. Is silence golden?

  9. Hi Bill, is there any contact details for this poor brother, or his lawyers? The only reason I ask is, he is being over the top slandered on certain blogs and, I thought it was decent to inform him or his team.

  10. Spencer, I just called Peter Dutton’s Canberra office and was told that it wasn’t actually him who revoked the visa, but the department, obviously some senior public servant.
    While I do not understand or agree with the visa being revoked, he did know before he left America and it might have been wiser to postpone the visit rather than claiming a “right” which for whatever reason was no longer extended by a sovereign nation. Humility I believe always works best for the cause of Christ. But as somebody else said, he got more publicity than these people who don’t want him to be here would have wanted him to have. Those things always back fire, praise the Lord.
    Many blessings

    I call it legalised corruption. Its no accident either way
