For any entity of government to think they can have authority to take some ones child away is dangerous to begin with, its a necessity though.

I know your not intending to but please don’t generalize people with bipolar disorder in the same category as these people. A Bipolar diagnosis has zero to do with participating in this kind of behavior. I have Schizoaffective Bipolar type and I as well as several others I know are the people you would have to work the absolute hardest to convince of any of this conspiracy mumbo jumbo. We’ve been delusional, we’ve experienced psychosis, we know not to fall for everything we hear on a YT video. We are extremely cautious of what and who we believe because of our diagnosis. We are absolutely going to check credentials and question people’s credibility. Our delusions stemmed from something very real (to us) that happened inside our brains. The stigma surrounding my disorder in particular is one that makes people question my ability to raise my daughter. Despite me having full custody of her, never losing custody of her and the fact that I’m probably an overly cautious parent. Most of these “sovereign citizens” don’t have diagnosable conditions. You can treat a brain disease, you can treat a mental illness. You can’t treat alt right Q conspiracy nut syndrome because it’s a flaw in their actual belief system and a lack of critical thinking skills that make them susceptible to misinformation campaigns that know how to target the right people. There’s no medication that is going to bring these people back to reality because they are not sick. They are mostly uneducated and easily influenced.

That's the basis for conservative ideology.

[@Urza9814]

You don't have a right to rehabilitation. Of course, we don't have a right to pure vengeance either, which seems to be what our "justice" system is mostly focused on. But neither of these options -- typically presented as the ONLY options -- are legitimate IMO. (I find that when things are often presented as only two sides, the best answer is usually the one nobody will tell you about.) Prison is legitimate only as an extension of the right to self-defense. So execution is never acceptable for example -- if someone is shooting at you, go ahead and shoot back, but once they're in cuffs that ain't defense, it's murder. Likewise, locking people up is only justified if you have reason to believe they are an imminent threat. And you can only legitimately restrict them enough to negate that threat. The question then becomes...if someone has used the internet to find kids to molest, how do you restrict that access enough to prevent them from doing that again, but not so much that they can't apply for jobs? As a software engineer, I can't really figure out an answer, except maybe supervised usage...or a psychologist signing off that they're "rehabilitated" maybe (I don't *oppose* rehabilitation, I just recognize it's not always possible/practical)

[@vylbird8014]

It looks like a probation program that's intentionally impossible to comply with, and it's lifetime. Not allowed to be in a room with a minor? You go to the restroom, a child walks in a few seconds later, instant violation. It's nothing but an excuse that the local law enforcement can use to declare "We got another child-rapists off the streets! We protect children, give us more money."

[@whatthehellzgoingon]

@@Urza9814 I would argue that access to rehabilitation is not a right but a greater good kind of situation. We don't HAVE to pay for parks or city programs but our society does because we believe in doing things to help the community. We should work on developing better integration for ex cons because it betters everyone's outcomes on less crime and criminal repeat offenders. Specifically for Pedo's, I cannot imagine we could not come up with a VPN kind of situation that controls for that part of the web. Add in random computer checks and you would be good. The issue with this whole particular case is that police over utilize plea deals because it saves money and time on the judicial side and they pressure people into it.

It's genuinely bizarre. If it's on the page it's part of the document. The only question which remains is whether it should be part of the document. In a legal filing ideally the document should only contain material relevant to the case. Intentionally putting something in there which you believe others should see as distinct from the rest of the text in some meaningful way but should really recognise was only meaningful to you,..... Well, it provides an indication that someone doesn't know how things work and nevertheless insists on believing that the world should bend to conform to their needs. These people are often influenced by the evangelical movement even if it's at second or third hand, and I guess they're accustomed to there being marginal commentaries which supplement the text in religious tracts . Maybe that's where this idiosyncratic preparation of his filing ultimately derived from. The state wants to remove a child from him. Those are the stakes for him in the situation. Other statutory rapists have gone on to live relatively normal lives, it happens all the time.

“Sovereignty itself is, of course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of law; but in our system, while sovereign powers are delegated to the agencies of government, sovereignty itself remains with the people, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts. And the law is the definition and limitation of power. It is indeed, quite true, that there must always be lodged somewhere, and in some person or body, the authority of final decision; and in many cases of mere administration the responsibility is purely political, no appeal except to the ultimate tribunal of the public judgment, exercised either in the pressure of opinion or by means of the suffrage. But the fundamental rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, considered as individual possessions, are secured by those maxims of constitutional law which are the monuments showing the victorious progress of the race in securing to men the blessings of civilization under the reign of just and equal laws, so that, in the famous language of the Massachusetts Bill of Rights, the government of the commonwealth “may be a government of laws and not of men.” For, the very idea that one man may be compelled to hold his life, or the means of living, or any material right essential to the enjoyment of life, at the mere will of another, seems to be intolerable in any country where freedom prevails, as being the essence of slavery itself.” [Yick Wo v.

Constitution for the United States of America, Article 4, Section 4 Republican government.

Happersett, 88 U.S. (21 Wall.) 162, 22 L.Ed. 627. “In Europe, the executive is almost synonymous with the sovereign power of a State; and generally includes legislative and judicial authority. … Such is the condition of power in that quarter of the world, where it is too commonly acquired by force or fraud, or both, and seldom by compact [consent]. In America, however, the case is widely different. Our government is founded upon compact [consent]. Sovereignty was, and is, in the people.” Glass v. The Sloop Betsey, 3 Dall 6 (1794) “In the United States***, sovereignty resides in the people who act through the organs established by the Constitution. The Congress as the instrumentality of sovereignty is endowed with certain powers to be exerted on behalf of the people in the manner and with the effect the Constitution ordains.

In order for him to renounce his US citizenship he would have to travel to another country and apply through the US embassy there. The process is not done overnight and these days most of the US embassies in the world are not taking appointments (they halted them March 2020) and have a waiting list of people waiting to renounce. In order to have legal residency in another country he would have to apply for a residency permit (green card) there; most countries have a morality clause which his conviction would automatically disqualify him. Even if he managed to find a country willing to overlook this (some countries if you have enough money can overlook quite a bit), he would have to pay 2350 usd plus whatever cost in processing the various exit tax forms. Even if he fled to another country where there's no extradition treaty between the US and it, he would be on his own as the US will not come to the rescue in the event of an emergency. Anything the US might provide (short of a list of names of legal and medical professionals) all have a hefty fee involved. Additionally the US has citizenship based taxation and FATCA both of which will can and often does make life hell for ordinary people without his past - good luck getting a bank account, job or home to live in.

I totally understand something that happened to me 2 days ago now. Someone said on Twitter regarding Texas Abortion Laws. “Wait until people find out there are people in every state the government will pay handsomely to take care of your child if you can’t”. I tried to discredit that claim by citing the $300 a month you get in my state to foster a child, adding it often takes months to get a dime of that money so you have to be completely financially prepared for that child in advance. He took a screenshot of my comment to spread around Twitter calling me a “modern day slave trader”. He took another of my comments where I said I actively help children in foster care twice a month free of charge by providing them something tangible they can keep forever regardless of it they go home or stay in the system. To this he said “This lady admits to kidnapping kids to sale for profit and thinks it’s fine” He also told me to “kill myself” repeatedly” and all kind of other crazy crap. I reported him to Twitter and they apparently found nothing wrong despite him telling me to “put a gun in my mouth and eat lead”. I now see he baited me and is blaming me because I work with and help foster families and assist in creating adoption portfolios. These people are insane. Are their children removed from homes they shouldn’t be? Absolutely. However personally knowing the stories of several of the newborns I’ve worked with the majority were born to mothers who were using hard drugs at the time of delivery. Some clean up and try to get them back some act like they do not even exist. I understand that it’s sad and unfair that mothers have to give their babies up for adoption solely due to financial problems. However it isn’t the only reason babies are given up for adoption and I do not feel ashamed for helping good people facing infertility create adoption portfolios. I would 100% support providing mothers with the resources they need if they want to keep their babies and I hope others would to. I also support a mothers right to place a baby up for adoption if that’s the choice they feel is right for them at this point In their life without receiving judgement from me or anyone else. Regardless we don’t need the government to exit stage left when it comes to child welfare. We need them to provide exponentially more funding than they do so we can employ far more social workers to ensure kids don’t slip through the cracks and to provide extensive resources not obstacles for families that want and deserve their children back. As far as the guy in this video I would need far more evidence that he was unaware he was sleeping with a 14 year old child as a grown mad aside from just because he says so. I know a man who is a sex offender and his offense really was sleeping with a 16 year old when he was like 18 and they were in a consensual relationship, the parents got mad and he went down for statutory. His face is regularly plastered in the local “heartland mugshot” paper in the sex offender section. However this man has two daughters he 100% has been allowed to raise. He’s never lost custody of them and they are young teenagers at this point. He keeps a steady job at a local distribution company that’s locally owned and will look at offenders on a case by case basis. I’ve saw him with the girls without the girls mother on a regular basis. This alone makes me feel like there may be more to this other mans story.

My interaction with Foster Care - My kids and I all had severe PTSD from my soon to be Ex Husband and had a OFP. I needed medical care and was struggling to care for both the kids and myself at the same time so the county Social Worker and therapist asked if I would do a temp foster placement. I agreed and my kids went to a foster home and I got to meet the family, the kids stayed in the same school, the family was nice, I saw the kids on weekends and once a week for therapy. After a few months of me learning to walk again with physical therapy (that kind of ex husband) my kids came home. The foster family sent a Christmas Card. I sent them one. I wont deny that there are likely bad homes out there but not all are bad and some help families when they are down and need support. It wasn't because I was a "bad parent". It was because the "Bad Parent" beat the every loving Sh*t out of me and the kids. It was support we needed and not judgement. If you are fearing or hating CPS it's likely because YOU did something illegal or very wrong. In my case I was praying for my kids to talk to CPS when they came several times. They also don't just put the kid up for adoption right away, it's after a while in foster care where the parent has failed to make necessary changes they have requested. Have friend with cousin where CPS is called and let's say no food in the home. Next day they go buy food and CPS comes back and problem is resolved so they can close case until 6+ mo later and it's re opened again. So, they have things they ask for you to change or do like parents to go to drug programs and complete them to get their kids back, but parents refuse. I've heard some horror stories. Parents get clean and away from their dealer but then go back and get back on drugs and the cycle repeats and repeats and repeats. It's terrible.

“Sovereignty itself is, of course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of law; but in our system, while sovereign powers are delegated to the agencies of government, sovereignty itself remains with the people, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts. And the law is the definition and limitation of power. It is indeed, quite true, that there must always be lodged somewhere, and in some person or body, the authority of final decision; and in many cases of mere administration the responsibility is purely political, no appeal except to the ultimate tribunal of the public judgment, exercised either in the pressure of opinion or by means of the suffrage. But the fundamental rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, considered as individual possessions, are secured by those maxims of constitutional law which are the monuments showing the victorious progress of the race in securing to men the blessings of civilization under the reign of just and equal laws, so that, in the famous language of the Massachusetts Bill of Rights, the government of the commonwealth “may be a government of laws and not of men.” For, the very idea that one man may be compelled to hold his life, or the means of living, or any material right essential to the enjoyment of life, at the mere will of another, seems to be intolerable in any country where freedom prevails, as being the essence of slavery itself.” [Yick Wo v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356, 370 (1886)] Section 4. The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government …. Constitution for the United States of America, Article 4, Section 4 Republican government.

Happersett, 88 U.S. (21 Wall.) 162, 22 L.Ed. 627. “In Europe, the executive is almost synonymous with the sovereign power of a State; and generally includes legislative and judicial authority. … Such is the condition of power in that quarter of the world, where it is too commonly acquired by force or fraud, or both, and seldom by compact [consent]. In America, however, the case is widely different. Our government is founded upon compact [consent]. Sovereignty was, and is, in the people.” Glass v. The Sloop Betsey, 3 Dall 6 (1794) “In the United States***, sovereignty resides in the people who act through the organs established by the Constitution. The Congress as the instrumentality of sovereignty is endowed with certain powers to be exerted on behalf of the people in the manner and with the effect the Constitution ordains.

There are foster parents who root for parents to fail, and some foster parents don't care for the children they have been entrusted with. It's a horrible thing for a child to have to be in foster care - an absolute last resort. But ultimately, most foster parents are good people, volunteering to help children who need somewhere safe to stay until their home is safe to go back to. The violent intent some of these people show toward foster parents is terrifying.

To quote the Supreme Court, "No fiction can make a natural born subject." Milvaine v. Coxe's Lessee, 8 U.S. 598 (1808). That is to say, no fiction, be it a government, a corporation, a legislated statute or act, or an administrative regulation, can mutate a natural born Sovereign into someone who is subject to his own creations. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, testimony before the Committee on Interstate Commerce, 1911. (102) “Behind the visible government there is an invisible government upon the throne that owes the people no loyalty and recognizes no responsibility. To destroy this invisible government, to undo the ungodly union between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the task of a statesman "Every man is supposed to know the law. A party who makes a contract [or enters into a franchise, which is also a contract] with an officer [of the government] without having it reduced to writing is knowingly accessory to a violation of duty on his part. Such a party aids in the violation of the law." [Clark v. United States, 95 U.S. 539 (1877)] “The practice of Law CAN NOT be licensed by any state/State.” (Schware v. Board of Examiners, 353 U.S. 238, 239) “The practice of Law is AN OCCUPATION OF COMMON RIGHT!” (Sims v. Aherns, 271 S.W. 720 (1925)) “RIGHT -- A legal RIGHT, a constitutional RIGHT means a RIGHT protected by the law, by the constitution, but government does not create the idea of RIGHT or original RIGHTS; it acknowledges them. . . “ Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 1914, p. 2961. “Those who have the right to do something cannot be licensed for what they already have right to do as such license would be meaningless.” City of Chicago v Collins 51 NE 907, 910. “A license means leave to do a thing which the licensor could prevent.” Blatz Brewing Co. v. Collins, 160 P.2d 37, 39; 69 Cal. A. 2d 639. “The object of a license is to confer a right or power, which does not exist without it.” Payne v. Massey (19__) 196 SW 2nd 493, 145 Tex 273. The State Bar is; an Unconstitutional Monopoly. AN ILLEGAL & CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE; Violates Article 2, Section 1, Separation of Powers clause of the U.S Constitution. There is NO POWER OR AUTHORITY for joining of Legislative, Judicial, or Executive branches within a state as the BAR is attempting. “BAR” members have invaded all branches of govt. & are attempting to control de jure governments as agents of a foreign entity! Corpus Juris Secundum (CJS), Volume 7, Section 4, Attorney & client: The attorney's first duty is to the courts and the public, not to the client, and wherever the duties to his client conflict with those he owes as an officer of the court in the administration of justice, the former must yield to the latter. Clients are also called "wards" of the court in regard to their relationship with their attorneys. Corpus Juris Secundum assumes courts will operate in a lawful manner. If the accused makes this assumption, he may learn, to his detriment, through experience, that certain questions of law, including the question of personal jurisdiction, may never be raised and addressed, especially when the accused is represented by the bar. Jurisdiction, once challenged, is to be proven, not by the court, but by the party attempting to assert jurisdiction. The burden of proof of jurisdiction lies with the asserter. The court is only to rule on the sufficiency of the proof tendered. See, McNutt v. General Motors Acceptance Corp., 298 U.S. 178 (1936). The origins of this doctrine of law may be found in MAXFIELD v. LEVY, 4 U.S. 330 (1797), 4 U.S. 330 (Dall.) 2 Dall. 381 2 U.S. 381 1 L.Ed. 424 “Sovereignty itself is, of course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of law; but in our system, while sovereign powers are delegated to the agencies of government, sovereignty itself remains with the people, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts. And the law is the definition and limitation of power. It is indeed, quite true, that there must always be lodged somewhere, and in some person or body, the authority of final decision; and in many cases of mere administration the responsibility is purely political, no appeal except to the ultimate tribunal of the public judgment, exercised either in the pressure of opinion or by means of the suffrage. But the fundamental rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, considered as individual possessions, are secured by those maxims of constitutional law which are the monuments showing the victorious progress of the race in securing to men the blessings of civilization under the reign of just and equal laws, so that, in the famous language of the Massachusetts Bill of Rights, the government of the commonwealth “may be a government of laws and not of men.” For, the very idea that one man may be compelled to hold his life, or the means of living, or any material right essential to the enjoyment of life, at the mere will of another, seems to be intolerable in any country where freedom prevails, as being the essence of slavery itself.” [Yick Wo v.

Constitution for the United States of America, Article 4, Section 4 Republican government.

Happersett, 88 U.S. (21 Wall.) 162, 22 L.Ed. 627. “In Europe, the executive is almost synonymous with the sovereign power of a State; and generally includes legislative and judicial authority. … Such is the condition of power in that quarter of the world, where it is too commonly acquired by force or fraud, or both, and seldom by compact [consent]. In America, however, the case is widely different. Our government is founded upon compact [consent]. Sovereignty was, and is, in the people.” Glass v. The Sloop Betsey, 3 Dall 6 (1794) “In the United States***, sovereignty resides in the people who act through the organs established by the Constitution. The Congress as the instrumentality of sovereignty is endowed with certain powers to be exerted on behalf of the people in the manner and with the effect the Constitution ordains. The Congress cannot invoke the sovereign power of the people to override their will as thus declared.” Perry v. United States, 294 U.S. 330, 353 (1935) “Inferior courts” are those whose jurisdiction is limited and special and whose proceedings are not according to the course of the common law.” Ex Parte Kearny, 55 Cal. 212; Smith v. Andrews, 6 Cal. 652 “The only inherent difference ordinarily recognized between superior and inferior courts is that there is a presumption in favor of the validity of the judgments of the former, none in favor of those of the latter, and that a superior court may be shown not to have had power to render a particular judgment by reference to its record. Ex parte Kearny, 55 Cal. 212. Note, however, that in California ‘superior court’ is the name of a particular court. But when a court acts by virtue of a special statute conferring jurisdiction in a certain class of cases, it is a court of inferior or limited jurisdiction for the time being, no matter what its ordinary status may be.

Most plants growing all around, even "weeds", are edible and medicinal. The body can heal itself from any disease. The medical symbol, the caduceus, with the rod, 2 serpents, and ball/pinecone on top represents healing and medicine. The rod is the spine, the 2 serpents are your left and right hemispheres of the brain, the ball/pinecone is the pineal gland. Your claustrum produces a cerebral spinal fluid that flows down the 33 vertebrae of the spine and rises back up, sits in the hypothalamus for 2-3 days and creates a bioelectric circuit causing the pineal gland to produce more seratonin and dmt raising the consciousness of the individual. You are surrounded by symbolism, It's another language. Learn it, notice its in most companies' logos. The one's enslaving mankind understand these teachings but use it against the masses. You literally manipulate matter with your thoughts, emotions, and voice, all based on mathematics and frequency. "Know thyself". Question EVERYTHING! It's all one big ass mind control trick.

I understand the desire to sympathize with the harshness of this guy's situation, but sovereign citizen movements are based on bogus legal theories (and, more importantly, have roots in white supremacy historically), and it's telling how many of those QAnon'd folks have a record with minors (throwing stones in glass houses when it comes to pedophile obsession). Child welfare programs are often broken, lack transparency, and have their own challenges, but most abuse involves family members or known adults (e.g., family friends). People who have made mistakes should be treated with more compassion, but that requires a change in how we think about justice (restorative versus retributive). Unfortunately, what these movements call for is paranoia, violence, individualism, white nationalism (in many cases), and empty promises when it comes to meaningful change.

[@redonk1740]

I suspect that's exactly what the media has been trying to accomplish. 99% of the "sovereign citizen" stuff is straight up conspiracy theorists, tweakers, scammers etc., but I think it is actually a thing - just not what most people make it out to be, mainly because the craziest, loudest voice is the one that gets all the attention. Perhaps it has been maximally misrepresented. To give you an idea of what I'm pretty sure an actual sovereign citizen is - think of it like when you live outside of "city limits". You can still live in a city, but be outside "city limits" and some laws no longer apply (discharging a firearm within city limits or having a bonfire are both illegal here, but allowed outside of "city limits"). Or if you live in a place with a population so small that you don't have a local city/town laws/PD, so everything is handled by the county sheriff. Similarly, if you do not currently live/work/reside in a state, are a citizen, and have no home state/ statehood (possible but rare?), then you would be a sovereign citizen, still subject to federal law. For example, if you don't "live in a state" (like you might not "live in a city" although where you live is technically in that city), then because of the right to travel freely unmolested, as long as it's not for commercial purposes, you aren't required to register your vehicle for a state, and there is no legal requirement of ID. However, literally just going to the store to buy snacks is "commercial purposes", and state highways/county roads etc are all under the jurisdiction of said states/counties/cities. So it's kind of like technically, you ~could~ "travel" from 1 place to another, without using the roads, in a car(riage), without registration legally. It would be logistically impossible, but perhaps technically legally sound. The amount of lawyering up and court stuff to even attempt to make your case would be pointless, so only the crazy people even try. I'm def not a lawyer and I could totally be 100% wrong about all of that, but I think that could be like the grain of truth behind every conspiracy theory.

I tend to agree with you on CPS. Unless this guy repeatedly engaged in sexual encounters with the young lady without bothering to ascertain how old she might be by looking at her friends, whom she was living with, or whether she was going to school and what grade, then the lifetime of probation makes sense. But if it was a one time encounter under a circumstance where he couldn't possibly verify her age afterwards, then there has to be limit on how long he would have to register as sense offender. We are not living in Kurt Vonnegut dystopia where CPS can prevent people who have committed sex offenses 2 or 3 decades prior are precluded from having babies. If the justice system believes he committed a heinous crime, then put him in jail. Stop with the nonsense of having to always check up on him from now on 'til his death. Who has the time and money to take on this ridiculous task of making sure he isn't allowed to procreate. So somebody has to be with him at all times until the all his kids turn 18? Why not sterilize him as punishment and get it over with. That saves all involved parties the time, energy and the aggravation.

Certain jobs attract certain personalities. I've also known very caring social workers, but my wife was threatened and verbally abused by a social worker one week after having her first baby, due to an anonymous complaint from a stranger who said the baby was too thin.

[@ryno4ever433]

The ultimate goal of libertarian philosophy is not actually to be free because a natural endpoint of their philosophy is that rich capitalists will preside over you. Their ideology is a twisted perversion of the original leftist version of libertarianism, otherwise known as anarchism. Freedom necessarily involves not limiting the freedom of others which right libertarianism immediately fails at by being a proponent of free market capitalism and supporting individual freedoms to the exclusion of the safety and natural rights of others. Anarchism seeks a society devoid of hierarchy in which a person can not selfishly limit the freedoms of others. All of this is to say that there is value in the desire for freedom, and when well thought out, it can be used to create an ideological framework that actually makes sense. The issue with right libertarianism is that it's necessarily anti-freedom despite the name.

Clients are also called "wards" of the court in regard to their relationship with their attorneys. Corpus Juris Secundum assumes courts will operate in a lawful manner. If the accused makes this assumption, he may learn, to his detriment, through experience, that certain questions of law, including the question of personal jurisdiction, may never be raised and addressed, especially when the accused is represented by the bar. Jurisdiction, once challenged, is to be proven, not by the court, but by the party attempting to assert jurisdiction. The burden of proof of jurisdiction lies with the asserter. The court is only to rule on the sufficiency of the proof tendered. See, McNutt v. General Motors Acceptance Corp., 298 U.S. 178 (1936).

I also find it concerning he would go through all the weird pseudo-law stuff instead of the normal procedure for modifying the terms of his probation to allow him to be a father.

The Plaintiff cites the following: “Under what is called international law, the law of the flag, a shipowner who sends his vessel into a foreign port gives notice by his flag to all who enter into contracts with the shipmaster that he intends the law of the flag to regulate those contracts with the shipmaster that he either submit to its operation or not contract with him or his agent at all.” - Ruhstrat v. People, 57 N.E. 41, 45, 185 ILL. 133, 49 LRA 181, 76 AM. in 1845 Congress passed an act saying Admiralty law could come on land. The bill may be traced in Cong. Globe, 28th Cong., 2d. Sess. 43, 320, 328, 337, 345(1844-45),no opposition to the Act is reported. Congress held a committee on this subject in 1850 and they said: “The committee also alluded to “the great force” of “the great constitutional question as to the power of Congress to extend maritime jurisdiction beyond the ground occupied by it at the adoption of the Constitution….” - Ibid. H.R. Rep. No. 72 31st Cong., 1st Sess. 2 (1850

And then they prey on peoples instincts to protect their children (abusers still have this instinct, they just don’t realize/accept that their children need protection from them) to spread these absurd conspiracy theories when they’re the ones doing it themselves! What an astounding display of human psychology.

For years, I worked with children in state custody and I do t k is anything about a “secret menu.” Parents who harmed their kids and had the kids removed are given MULTIPLE Opportunities to regain custody. Usually it involves getting professional help for the main problems like substance abuse or anger management. Also, they need to show up for scheduled visits and court dates. In my experience, only about 20% followed through.

@@sassynana5201 Its bad on both sides at least in TN. The agency tries as much as possible to under pay the care takers while holding as much profit for themselves. If you do not know the laws they will attempt to underpay for a child that has more money attached to it because of disabilities. They are also major racist, as most of the children are European but most of the care takers are Non european. They relegate non european people to the penal system.

No it doesn't. Living and loving fills the soul with goodness. "Fighting" the "system" like this is just acting out their mental health issues on a public stage.
