"She's Not a Criminal"

Amnesty Ireland's "She's not a criminal" campaign is so far detached from the reality of the situation in this country that to use this as a campaign slogan is disingenuous at best. Not one person in the Irish Republic has been prosecuted under this law. This campaign gives the impression that Irish women who abort their baby here run the risk of going to jail. This is a highly unlikely scenario to say the least.

Also in discussing the rights of women how does one forget about the future women of this country in the same breath. The unborn child will grow up and become men and women of this country. Are these babies criminals? The baby in the womb is not a criminal either lest we forget our most vulnerable. Can Amnesty really maintain that they are a defender of human rights when over 40 million babies are killed in the womb each year and there is no mention of their rights? And what of the incredibly poor abortion practices that go on where babies have survived a botched abortion and are left to die an excruciating death? Where are their rights? And where is Amnesty hiding on these issues?
