Re: Whoa! Polygamist solution is frightening...

“It’s no problem because it’s already a disaster,” he said."

Incidently, the Dallas Newspaper also reported incidently that home prices have fallen by 4% perhaps signalling tough times ahead for Texas (which makes funds tighter as more families invariably fall into the system).

Do those that were in favor of removing all these children have any kind of idea what lies ahead for these kids? Or the kind of abused kids they may end up with?

Was the risk of harm with their parents truly greater than the risk of harm in a system compared to the Katrina Storm by one of the judges?

Shakes head in sorrow and walks away...
Newman,
He is right it is a disaster. They are still violating the law of Texas regardless of their religious affiliation. Do we allow that because children are involved?
