    As some of you know . . . a complaint regarding this comment was forwarded about a week ago to the NZ Human Rights Commission.

    It was simply an email outlining the complaint and quoting the paragraph in question.

    Today I recieved a request for more information as follows . . .

    84305

    Hello **************,

    My name is Robert Hallowell; I work at the Human Rights Commission as its Legal Counsel.

    Thank you for your email of 14 September 2011. Would you be able to send me a copy of the particular edition of Watchtower or a copy of the article that you enquired about?

    Kind regards

    Robert Hallowell

    Legal Counsel

    I have been out for a good few years and have difficulty accessing Watchtower publications. If somebody could point me to a reliable link that is apolitical re the JW's or have a pdf of the article . . . that would be helpful.

    Also . . . since this is being looked at by a legal representative . . . what additional information / comments would you recommend?

    Thanks for your help.

    I can still read your name; the black block doesn't make it unreadable.

    Thanks Tal . . . not too worried about that one . . . it's one of my many aliases anyway LOL

    Thanks for the links Atlantis. I also feel I might need to background my reply to provide some context. I don't want to swamp the guy with info and links, but at the same time would like to be able to convey the complaint with as much import as possible.

    I will put together a draft for feedback later, but any suggestions offered on what to say / include will be much appreciated . . . team effort works best.

    wow, sizemik, that is so great!! We should all write or email to our Human Right Commission of our area. I am amazed at the response you got and that Mr. Hallowell of Legal Counsel wants the copy. I may PM you for assistance, is that okay?

    Of course. In fact, it would be nice to be able to mention that the article is the subject of (numerous) complaints in other countries . . . help lift the profile.

    They're good folks aren't they?
