Why are you and Bob concerned MORE about the rights of the parents of these children then the children themselves.
This is incomprehensible to me - please explain.
How can you secure those rights for the next generation by denying this generation their rights?

You have over 100,000 registered sex offenders minimum running around the streets of america of which over half are off the radar. Those are the ones they know about. Why does 'your' goverment allow them to walk about in society with only a picture on a web site, most having no clue as to thier whereabouts? Is that goverment inept? Which should you be concerned with... a few who may have due to religious convictions broken the law, or the 50 thousand plus roaming the streets you have no clue about??
Conspiracy? lol Waco. The ATF was coming up for renewed funding before congress in weeks. They had to show they were doing thier stuff..to ensure that funding went thru. They had publicity booths all set up......ready for the take down and raid. They invited the media. yada yada... and could have taken Koresh weeks before on a number of occasions when he went to town. Nooooooo......they have to have a spectacle. And the result was? OVer 23 children under 10 yrs old burned alive.
What part of wake up dont your understand?
They catch them when they can. if all the creeps want to start a cult and take over an apartment building and be all together it would sure make things easier!

There is a problem with that in this case Bob.
The children do not know who their biological parents are.
Rest assured this is the latest argument the Texas government has been propagating so they can do the DNA testing to get the goods on the fathers so they can prosecute because their case is falling apart. The attorneys of the children are saying that some of the small child are confused by the many questions and are very young to answer the questions in the ways that are posed to them. But if make no bones about it the young ones know who their parents are even though the authorities don't want to admit it. This is all about religious persecution and what they are teaching their children. Read my earlier posts. Its all beginning to fall apart.

There is the situation where a woman will have children from different fathers due to fornication, adultery or divorce. How is this much different from the case at hand?

I believe this is more a case of religious persecution than it is of child abuse, because if it was motivated by a concern for children, then the government would have moved long ago when it concerned the illegitimate children produced as a result of fornication of everyday citizens, the children from different fathers in cases of divorce, and the children produced as a result of adultery. At least the children of the FLDS are well cared for with great community support.

All this points to the erosion of American cultural, moral and spiritual values. America is well on its way to decline.

<quoted text>O.K. Lets see here I haven't smoked a joint since college and I do believe they are getting due process here as the matter is in court. No one has been arrested and thrown in jail,(YET) No one has been accused of anything. All that is happening here is a disscusion about Young girls being taught and incouraged and Possibly brainwashed into marring much older men. And they are not even legal amrriages so it is an issue of statatory rape, A crime! And if you say thats not in evidence then where did all the babies come from! Rant and rave all you want because your simply just another anti government conspericy theroist whose paronia has run wild. You know "the sky is falling" type!
If you don't smoke pot, then why do you place such nonsense as your logo? I totally understand it's really none of my business, but do you see the impression it gives?
Just because the matter is in court does not mean they are receiving due process.This type of proceeding is supposed to be strictly confidential because it involves minors. But it is anything but confidential with all the media frenzy surrounding it.And this is being allowed precisely because of the damage it will do for the people to get a fair trial when they are eventually criminally prosecuted. Again, I do not condone child abuse of any kind and if there are crimes committed, they must be prosecuted. However, there must be proper order in how law enforcement and the judicial system handles this case.When things are done in proper order, it protects all of us. The state has stirred up the hornet's nest and now they are so overwhelmed by the sheer number of children they don't know what to do.I will be very interested, but not surprised, to see where this will all go.

And hopefully, when the sky does eventually fall as it is slowly but surely, hopefully you won't be buried. Open your eyes.

By the way, I think that the Court has appointed at least one guardian "ad litem" for the kids, and it is a SHE, not a HE. Tee Hee!

Binah, we don't know that any of the men have committed any crime. We know that crimes have been committed, because of the underage mothers and pregnant girls found at the FLDS compound. These women and girls would not give interviewers information about who was related to whom or the paternity of the children involved. The DNA has been taken and must be analyzed to identify the fathers of the children of underage mothers. That will show which men have committed crimes. It is possible that some of the mothers of the underage pregnant girls or mothers will be charged as accessories.
The welfare fraud is another issue that will be taken up in another court.
The DNA will not be taken until Monday and at that time the rest of the mothers who are with the very small children will be separated from them. I don't know where you are getting your information but they only have 5 girls who are under 18 who are pregnant that information came out in court. The states case is falling apart and they know it.

you people only see and read what you want and yes that would be the equivalent of going to an apartment complex calling it a single home and removing all the children from the building for the crime of one or two people

He is right, attorneys are making the same arguments.
If one family unit (husband, wives and their children) live in different home within this community and they are obeying the laws--the State does not have the right to take their children, just because another family unit down the street may be suspect of not obeying the laws. These families are separate units. Just like the examples given above. This comes down to what is being taught to the community that the elites don't like and have said so. Do I need to repost that the information?

I am glad to see you are not condoning their behaviour. The media unfortunatelyis something we have to live with. It is out of hand just look at the nuts that follow Brittinay Spears every move! They are getting due process and are handling this as best they can. They did not create this mess. the people who have been brainwashing children for years only to have sex with children are the ones to blame! They will get a fair trial. OJ got more press then anybody and he walked!! My eyes are wide open and my logo only refers to where I came from as I am a product of the 60's

Adopted children do not know who their biological parents are - yes that is correct.

Now, what is the point?

The crime is abuse - in this case/cases sexual. They had pregnant underage girls and mothers in the compound who either could not or would not identify the fathers of their children.

Therefore EVERYBODY goes in for DNA testing, and children removed BEFORE yet another underage girl becomes pregnant.

If the people had been truthful, then the children would have remained on the compound AND the men who impregnated the underage girls would be on trial right now.

So - the fault therefore lies with the compound members that ALL 416 children are not in their own beds tonight. Is it not Bob?
