Moreover, Focus on the Family "New Zealand" is a franchise of an aggressive US Christian Right antigay, antiabortion and antifeminist multinational ("Focus on the Family") which has *acknowledged* providing their NZ branch with funding, tactical and strategic advice. In fact, there's a news item on this very website that attests to that.

I would have thought the question of a sovereign state's political debates should be resolved by the inhabitants of that sovereign state and none other.

Moreover, why do BCIR supporters want to gloss over problematic aspects of their movement's past...like the involvement of the racist, anti-Semitic and neofascist League of Rights in the movement's origins, perhaps?

And given the abuse of BCIRs to attack vulnerable minorities in the United States, why shouldn't people have the full gamut of information about such attacks on human rights and civil liberties facilitated through that avenue?

Craig, why do you attack the credibility of your political opponents by branding them with these inflammatory terms without the slightest evidence or justification? And what do you know about their personal beliefs anyway? Also, what does it matter? I don't see any of them attacking people like you for whatever you believe in and no doubt if they did you'd be the first to criticise them for attacking their opponents' personal beliefs!

Democracy is a government of the people for the people by the people.

It looks as if the views of the people are less valuable that that of a few people in the government.Why?

One wonders how much money the pro-violence lobby got from their right-wing Yank religious fanatic mates for this little exercise in futility...

I can think of several more apt titles for yesterday's publicity stunt- March for Theocracy and March for Demagoguery top the list...
