Hate-speech campaigner sent back to USA
October 12, 2015 at 8:52 am
A hate speech campaigner who has said that "doctors who perform abortions should be executed" was rightly denied a visa to enter Australia.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJek9bi1bc0
On September 30 Peter Dutton MP cancelled the visa of Troy Newman under section 128 of the Migration Act 1958 following a request from Terri Butler MP. Dutton made it clear that his presence was not welcome as it would threaten the health, safety or good order of the Australian community (Migr 1958 sect. 116.1.e.i).
Newman then booked another flight to LA, and subsequently boarded his international flight, despite his visa being revoked. He was detained on arrival. He then wasted the High Court of Melbourne's time by appealing - the court made it clear he had no grounds on which to appeal after illegally entering our country, and he was promptly sent back to the cesspit he came from.
Quote:"Acting as he did means he does not come to this court with clean hands," (Justice Nettle) said.
In a statement, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said he had instructed the department to "expedite" Mr Newman's removal from Australia.
"Any person who enters Australia without a valid visa and does not have a lawful basis to remain in Australia is expected to depart," he said.
"His detention and removal is entirely related to his decision to openly flout Australian law and travel to Australia without a valid visa."

Ugh... that video is appalling. He deliberately tried to make "Christians are being persecuted" propaganda after trying to travel illegally.
What a douchebag.
He really is a sick person, in charge of a group of psychotic radicals. Only Tony Perkins's "Family Research Council" (and of course, the Westboro Baptist jerks) comes close.
When I was living in Kansas, Newman's organization, Operation Rescue, quite literally inspired one of his devotees, Scott Roeder, to execute an abortion providing doctor at Sunday church service, in Wichita.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

You Aussies were right to deport him, Danny.
Over here, he's just one of many.

But it's not in good style to drop toxic waste in another country.

They should have kept him as the player to be named later in the Ken Ham trade.

Ken Ham doesn't incite violence. You can have whatever wackjob beliefs you like, we don't care, but you can't incite hate and violence against other people.
And we certainly don't believe in executing anyone, no matter how heinous the crime.

US foreign policy really hasn't changed much, has it?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Just hope he doesn't end up coming here.
