The Jehovah's Witnesses have settled lawsuits alleging church policies protected pedophile men who sexually abused children for many years.

You're Kidding? | 2:21 p.m. April 11, 2008
So, let's recap this for a second. Texas serves a warrant to find one man, whom parole officers knew was in Arizona; remove half a thousand women and kids from their homes, never arrest the original target, never find the original victim, but determine that pregnant teenagers= sexual abuse. (Have they spent ANY time arresting kids in the area high school?)
Now they have no clue what to do with all these people and want lawyers (as well as the states of Utah and Arizona) to help them ease the burden? Why do they think Utah hasn't done a similar crackdown in Hilldale? Let Texas stew in the mess they created. It seems obvious that the Morality in Texas is conditional on someone else paying the bills!

I don't think that 'You're Kidding?' hasn't really been paying attention to the news coverage over the last 5 years. To reiterate:

1) Texas didn't serve a warrant to find one man, the warrant was to find the girl and her child.

2) Why would they arrest Dale Barlow at present? They know where he is.

3) There is a difference between two kids in high school having sex, and girls being married off at an age where they legally cannot consent.

4) Based on the actions of the police and the children's agency as reported by the newspapers they have a plan in place, and are following it.

5) Supplying each child with their own lawyer is an excellent move - remember Short Creek.

6) I don't know why Utah and Arizona haven't taken action, but I suspect it's because they don't have evidence, or the hope of finding evidence, that would allow them to obtain a conviction.

Think.

WACO 2 without the gunfight and flames. Here's the score:
Jack booted thugs acting under color of authority obtain a warrant based on an alleged phone call from a minor inside the compound.

The sheriff has been watching them because "he suspected they were doing something" and he has a confidential informant WHO HE WILL NOT NAME OR PRODUCE ....translation...... he had it in for them and manufactured a reason to get a warrant.

400+ children were ripped from their families under color of authority and 100+ adult females went voluntarilly with them to be with their sisters and daughters......yet the media protrays it as a mass exodus of victims, saved by the jack booted thugs.

This is just another episode in our government run AMOK..... Ruby Ridge, WACO, Elian Gonzalez, TSA, the list goes on and now Eldorado is added to the ever growing list of examples.

Keep your powder dry people!
