"At the end of the hearing, an attorney asked the judge to consider her motion to stop the separation of mothers from their children. The judge said she hadn't seen the motion, noting that she had a large stack of motions to go over.
When the attorney pressed her to consider it immediately, Walther stood up and announced, "Ladies and gentleman, this hearing is concluded," and abruptly left the bench."
Not gonna let these lawyers bulldoze her!
Ping for peace.
Ask the foxes to guard the chicken coop.
Does it bother anyone that the children don’t even know who their parents are?
Bullseye!!!!
Some appropriate music for your listening pleasure while participating in this thread:

Yeah, it disgusts me and if the men fall into disfavor and get kicked out the wives and kids get “assigned” to a new man-”yech! Sick.
What.........listen bud..religion does not trump law.
Please explain.
Some day somebody’s gonna write a blockbuster book about this case.
I will. In this country you can’t use religion as a shield to do sick stuff that is illegal.
God wouldn’t want this kind of sick set up believe me. I happen to have a deep relationship with God, in case you want to know.
Unless you’re muslim.
“Does it bother anyone that the children don’t even know who their parents are?”
That on was discussed to death on a thread last night. Some were very bothered by it. I’d heard an interview with Irene
Spencer, who escaped one of the groups when in her 40s. She said the children were taught to not tell outsiders who their parents were, to avoid providing any info that would aid authorities in proving that polygamous relationships existed.
“Laws are made for the government of actions, and while they cannot interfere with mere religious belief and opinion, they may with practices.”
Yeah, it applies to the Muslims and their ludicrous “honor killings” too. Beating their wives and all that other sick stupid stuff they pass off as reliously mandated which is completely hellish and evil.
“What.........listen bud..religion does not trump law.”
Listen Bud, law enforcement tactics do not trump constitutional rights. There are many aspects of this to be reviewed and no one has all the answers at this point. And there are many who don’t care for the strong armed tactics being used against women and children, rather than the men who led and perpetrated whatever did or didn’t take place.
You, maybe? ;)
I ain’t “bud” I am a mean old lady.
Besides, they rescued the kids, including the dhildren mothers, some of whom were pregnant and took them away from their abusers. I have no probemo with that, kemosabe.
