This is a letter I wrote about abortion to the Portland Maine Chief of Police.
"Hello Chief Malloch,
I know we have corresponded in the past but I would like to give an introduction. I serve with Pro-Life Missionaries of Maine and at certain times of the year I minister on the sidewalk outside Planned Parenthood, at 443 Congress Street, ministering to lost souls and proclaiming the Gospel of Christ. We seek to do this in a manner that is lawful, as we believe in obeying the authorities God has placed over us, so far as they do not command us to disobey our God.
As a Christian I believe in the value of human life from conception to natural death. Every human being at the point of fertilization is a person, endowed with the right to life by their Creator God in whose image they are created.
I would like to appeal to you as a magistrate in the city of Portland to do justice for all people who fall under your protection. Everyday in our country, more than 3,000 children are murdered by abortion. Almost every Friday, in your city, babies, human beings, persons you are supposed to protect, are literally torn limb from limb. D&E abortions, which are performed in your city, are a gruesome act of murder, against children. If anyone else was murdered by these means, it would be called inhumane, however when this is done to a child in the womb, it is called "healthcare" or a "woman's right". This is evil and must be stopped.
As a magistrate who has sworn to uphold the constitution, you have a duty to protect life. I am aware that many people today believe that an errant court decision from 45 years ago, is binding law over our country. The issue is that Roe v. Wade is not law. The Supreme Court cannot make laws, and when they rule against the constitution and say that murder is acceptable, they must not be obeyed but rather ignored. An example is Dred Scott. It was not overturned, it was ignored.
You have a duty to enforce justice. You may say that you are neutral as regards abortion but there is no neutrality. Either you are for life or you are for death. You have authority in this city, and with that authority comes rights and a duty. (See lessermagistrate.com) Because of your position of authority, if you stand by doing nothing, after now being told that children are being murdered in your city, you are complicit to the murder of children, you are neglecting your oath to protect human life, and you are perverting justice.
I plead with you as an ambassador of Jesus Christ to do everything within your power to stop the murder of the innocent which takes place under your watch. Do not provide security for those who murder the unborn. Please use your position to call on higher magistrates to abolish abortion. Please do not enforce laws which provide special protections for abortionists, or those which seek to limit the freedoms of those who plead for the lives of children.
I urge you to stand up for justice, use your power to protect life, not stand complicit to murder, and do all you can to end abortion now.
Babies are being murdered in your city, what will you do to stop it?
Sincerely,
Virginia Cowperthwaite"
