Comments about ‘Appeals court rules Texas acted improperly in removing FLDS children’

High time.

Finally!

Despite the many examples of its paucity, I just knew there was some common sense in Texas.

I hope they haven't already messed up whatever chance there might have been to actually rectify whatever real abuse there might be at the YFZ Ranch.

It would be a double tragedy if, while ostensibly attempting to help these children and traumatizing the kids in the process, they actually impair any further efforts to help them in a proper way.

Way to go court of appeals!!!!!! It is about time so CPS get off your duffs and give these kids back. A higher court has ruled you were wrong so take your illegal activity among each other. You are kidnappers and you should all be thrown in jail. Better cut your losses and get out of the game. You have lost the higher courts win.

Marleigh Meisner; I think you are not going to get that Merit Raise. No children to sell, no money.

Gov. Perry; start looking for another job!

TEXAS CPS;get ready for Hell!

Seig Heil, Ya'll!

YES! Finally another court with some authority has weighed in on the outrageous actions of the CPS. Get the kids back home now! Save Texas $21,000,000 a year. Give the FLDS a chance to adapt to existing laws. They are paying their taxes, industriously building their community, and surely there is a middle ground to be found that precludes possibilities of child abuse, yet allows them to practice their religion in peace.

To Sandy, Cosmo, Bruce, and all of the other FLDS, congratulations on a game well played. You're free to continue abusing your children, for now.

Don't get too comfortable in your temporary victory, however, the eyes of Texas are still on you.

I feel sorry for the FLDS children and mothers who may have lost their only chance to escape from the clutches of Warren Jeffs.

To all the CPS workers who have spent their days posting here instead of doing something useful. Get ready to be sued, personally, for your involvement in this. And remember the bright side, criminal prosecution for unlawful imprisonment and civil rights violations is not out of the question. You can plead 'I was just following orders' just like the Nazi concentration camp guards did.

I have mixed feelings about this whole fiasco. On one hand, the state clearly had no right to take the kids in the manner in which they did. However, there are serious issues in the FLDS culture that clearly deserve attention. I sincerely hope this whole mess gets straightened out one way or another. I think this episode is only going to make the FLDS stronger and WEALTHIER once the lawsuits against the state get settled.

Yes! Best news in awhile. I hope these good families are reunited soon.
I realize that the FLDS are not vincictive people but, just this once, I'd like to see them make Texas pay through the nose. It couldn't happen to a more deserving state.
Ms. Meisner's pants suit is going to be in a wad over this one.

I have been following this illegal raid since it started and from all the way in Michigan prayed that this day would come. It is wonderful to see that a judge is able to see this for what it really was (Religious Persecution) and will finally let these traumatized Children go home to their Mothers.

They have minds of their own, they will see who he really is. As for this ruling, YEH!!! Finally, someone genuinely caring about the children!!! Now maybe a good outcome with compromise can take place instead of just a bunch of bullies acting on hatred and gossip.

Well, I did make a prediction they had better have their ducks in a row or they'd be in deep yogurt...

So, when do the CPS and the Baptist buses start taking the children back to the ranch?

I congratulate the FLDS, and sincerely thank the Court for its discernment.

Anybody got a good recipe for CROW? Maybe a nice FOOT souffle.

That does not mean that this is in any way or matter, over with.

The FLDS is nothing more than a disgusting cult. I hope Warren Jeffs spends the rest of his natural life in prison. The states of Utah and Arizona should be ashamed for allowing this to continue.

This is GREAT news, but only for 48 of the families perhaps. Only 48 mothers were part of the appeal. Love to see what's next!

Thank God. I was beginning to think that my state was no longer a safe place to live if you had children.

If anyone thinks this is the end of the game, guess again. Those kids are going to be caught between different courts for a long time to come.

And lets be serious, if anyone knows anything about Texas Baptists, it's that their stubborn and persistent. Do you really think their going to take this lying down? Now the FLDS really has a problem.
