Steve Barrett :
Having been a churchworker in Central America during all of the very
turbulent 1980s, I have always admired AI's defense of the defenseless.
I find the position they are adopting on abortion disturbing and
contradictory to what I had assumed was a defense of life in all
situations. |

Patricia Francis-Lyon :
Just as I write letters for Amnesty campaigns opposing violence against
political prisoners, I now write to oppose making the killing of unborn
children a "right". |

Amnesty International. |

Kenneth K Maher :
I have responded to AI requests for letters both to prisoners and on their
behalf, and the work against the death penalty is dear to my heart. My car
sports an AI decal, and I have frequently decorated envelopes with the
extras I have received. Supporting prisoners is not pro-choice; it is
pro-life. Although I would continue to support prisoners and work against
the death penalty, I could no longer support AI if it abandoned its
neutrality on the abortion issue. |

I cannot support the actions of AI if it stands up for the rights of
prisoners but not of unborn babies. ALL humans deserve human rights. |

Walker Brown :
The history of the movement for human rights involves the struggle to
progressively broaden of our understanding of what it means to be human.
Women, children, other races and nationalities, enemy soldiers, condemned
criminals have all gradually over time been acknowledged as human and
granted rights. The fight to recognize the humanity of an unborn child is
a current front line of that continuing struggle. |

I have been a long time financial supporter of A.I. I would have difficulty
continuing as such if this move on abortion goes through D.P.M. |

Stephan Melancon :
I have been a member of AI for many years and a monthly contributor to the
Prisoners of Conscience program. I will, of course, discontinue all
contributions and encourage my family and friends to do likewise should
Amnesty make this PC move in support of abortion "rights."
Consistency demands respect for the unborn. |

I've been a member of both the Geneva and Ithaca AI chapters in the

candle must never be extinguished. |

shelley M. Douglass :
I realize that abortion is a disputed issue; for that reason I think
AI's neutral stance is the best possibility. It is important in this
age of repression not to lose supporters and/or clarity. I believe that as
time passes we will come to understand the violence of abortion, and I know
that I cannot support a group working for abortion as a right! |

the moral test of any society is the way it treats its most vulenerable
members. I will not be able to offer any support to an organization that
has decided that the weakest human beings are disposable. |

Lila Martinez :
AI should always stand for the protection of human life, whether it is
pre-born or not. To do otherwise causes AI to loose its credibility to
millions of supporters. |
