Rick Siegel Prespectives on Freedom and Liberty

There is no doubt that the state of Texas Child Protective Services has some serious problems. The state agents raided a peaceful community of a known religion and kidnapped all the children. It must have been like a scene from over a hundred years ago as children were kidnapped to work in servitude or sold off as orphans. At issue is just who owns those children?

Child Protective Services issued a statement: “Child Protective Services has one duty — to protect children. When we see evidence that children have been sexually abused and remain at risk of further abuse, we will act.” It seems, like the witch-hunts of early pioneers this includes the anonymous tipster. Even worse is the state cannot even provide the tape of the anonymous call that convinced them to kidnap hundreds of children from their mothers. The states claim to ownership of children cannot supersede the parents without proper procedure prior to action. Innocent until proven is established criteria in America.

Many witnessed the incredibly distressed mothers whose children were being ripped from their bosoms from their arms while gun wielding thugs stood by to insure they complied with “rule of law.” What kind of law allows armed thug agents of the government to kidnap children under false and unverified innuendos? What has become of the rights of people in America?

The end for these poor people has not been seen as the state still has hundreds of children separated by hundreds of miles from brothers, sisters, fathers and mothers. Illegal acts by the state whose authority supersedes the parents in all cases – guilty until proven innocent.

The children will not be united today or tomorrow, as the state must try to hold onto some vestige of principle where it has none. Its legal obligations for the damage done to families will cost the state billions of dollars and every day they hold those children will be to extort a ransom to avoid financial responsibility for their illegal acts. If the courts allowed the rumor of an anonymous call to be presented as just cause to steal the children and break up hundreds of families there will be fear throughout the land. These agencies can steal your children from you on an anonymous tip that they don’t even have to have recorded! A fabricated tip! Certainly this is back to Salem witch times.

The state of Texas is holding these children longer to contemplate what to do and has not the humanity to return what is not theirs. The state of Texas as well as all states in the Union must reel in these agencies and take the power away from them. Parents first not the state. Who owns your children? The state thinks they do. They provide the conditions and you must meet them. If they decide you are guilty you will lose your children but given a way to prove you are innocent. Does this sound American to you?

The UN has tried to do the same things. Take away your right to bring your child up the way you like. These people want to keep the children from television and violent film, music and the horrible environments in public schools. The searchers, the fights, the violence. The state of Texas wants McDonald eating fatties watching the latest commercials and buying into men’s makeup and little girl sluts looking to Paris Hilton or the latest Disney teen stripped naked as an object and lifestyle to admire.

American was once freedom. Freedom to live the way you want if you were harming no one. Where you were innocent until proven guilty. Where you could not be arrested and held without cause. The land of the free and the home of the brave can no longer brag of any of these things. Now they have also lost their children to a state who can do what they want. No amount of restitution can undo the damage to these hundreds of children. They will bear the scars from the state of Texas for generations.
