I know it’s late in the game, but why did we switch from Natural Rights to Human Rights? Was it to take God out of the equation? Or is “human” some sort of leftist code word?

To establish the clear meaning of the word PERSON in the California Constitution.

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 1 DECLARATION OF RIGHTS

SEC. 7. (a) A person may not be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law or denied equal protection of the laws...

These liberal-oriented groups will be not only the undoing of California, they will wreck havoc in/on the US.

Our guys are reclaiming the language. I think it’s very smart in this case.

Make the other side fight against the guarantee of human rights for all.

Brilliant.

A real civil rights organization by a real civil rights activist. How refreshing.

There are too many organizations who falsely name their organizations under the “civil rights” banner (particularly the racial agitators and the radical homosexual activists).

I have no idea how that name/label got into the link at the top. There is no website by that name. I entered AIPNews.com.

I went back and read the whole thing before posting this time. It is a pro-life group seeking rights for the unborn.

Walter Hoye is a hero, and the personhood movement represents the rebirth of the pro-life movement.

People forget that in the Roe vs. Wade decision even its author, Judge Blackmun, admitted that OF COURSE the child is protected by the Fourteenth Amendment if they are A PERSON.

Of course our party, AIP, has a fully personhood platform. But so does the Republican Party. It has since Reagan and allies defeated the position of Gerald R. Ford (pro-choice for states) and put it there, finally, in 1984.

And so, this is a critical fight that all of us can do battle together in.

That is, if one believes that the child is a person, and that the clear provisions of the Constitution of the United States, and the constitutions of the several states, matter.

Yes, indeed it is. Led by the smartest and boldest and most active pro-lifers in California.
