It isn't that the kids were being taken to a "camp", they were being freed from a "camp".

Not to belabor the point, but how else could one interpret this statement by acfan?

Shades of the trains to Auschwitz

How about if we avoid all references to Nazis and concentration camps?

The Great State of Texas better get this right. If these cases are botched, then we're opening the door to sharia law. That may be an overstatement, but it seems like the only religion allowed to circumvent the separation of church and state is Islam.

We're not debating the "separation doctrine", but no one here finds that particular item to be in the Constitution.

In any case this is a 13th Amendment case, clear as a bell.

The State of Texas is handling this very well IMHO. Remember, Waco was a FEDERAL law enforcement operation from the git-go...and they went in with guns blazing (and helicopters with sniper fire...probably ordered by Hitlery!). Had the State of Texas been allowed to handle the Branch Davidian situation at Waco, those children would likely be alive today.

Here, at Eldorado, CPS went in with law enforcement escort...no guns blazing. The children were safely removed for an investigation. No one has been charged with any crime. I suspect no one has even been read their Miranda rights. It may very well be that no one is EVER charged with a crime here.

The point is the children are now safe...and if a Dependency Court Judge finds the allegations to be substantiated, the children can then be adopted to other, more suitable parents or guardians & environment. If it's all a big CPS fraud, the children can go back to the compound (as will certainly be ordered by the Court in that case).

A much better outcome than FEDERAL law enforcement provided at the Waco Massacre ordered by Bill & Hillary Clinton...who now want your support once again to return them to the White House! Gag me with a spoon...

BTW, Ernesto Miranda, for whose case the famous 'Warning' is named, was later murdered in a poker game in Arizona & NO ONE was ever charged or prosecuted for that crime. Seems that the other poker players ALL chose to remain silent after being read their 'Miranda Rights'. There was no justice for Ernesto Miranda...
