Father says his family's rights were violated
In New Castle, Colorado a man’s home was invaded by a SWAT team, in order to make sure a child in the family received "proper medical attention", and in doing so, battered their way into the home and seemed to have made quite a show. However, the Doctor at the ER checked the boy and sent him home, with Tylenol and suggested ice to a black eye. So, since when did social services start to use a SWAT team, and when does a paramedic get a judge/magistrate involved, who gets a Sheriff involved, who then decides it’s time for drastic action?
As much as I appreciate good law enforcement, it is times like these that make me want to throw up. This Sheriff and his squad need to go...period. Is t his the Government mandated health care that is supposed to bring a better future for everyone? If so, no thanks. There’s been a few articles written about this story, and hopefully there will be many more. This particular story needs to gain some national traction.
In providing various links:
Radley Balko, World Net Daily, and for an extended look at the story.
I encourage you to scrutinize each story and each account, as I cannot attest to any of the publications being "the gospel or spin", so read accordingly. All I’m saying is this. If the story(stories) turn out to be true, I sincerely hope that justice is served, and I don’t mean served on the family who had their rights violated. In my opinion, the Magistrate and the Sheriff were way over the top.
While we’re on the subject, and knowing that many of our "scholarly leaders" insists that it tales a village, I’m not surprised at the actions of the people who allowed this to happen. It’s no secret that many of our elected officials would have us bow to international law, and cases like this would run rampant through our system. Yet, regarding international law, why aren’t the terrorists and their families charged and locked up for child abuse? Seems to me that encouraging your child to strap on a bomb vest and go out in the name of said god and blow up a bunch of infidels, should certainly be on the books, no? But that’s a whole ‘nother story.
