Freepers have been pissed that the government focused on the children instead of the male adults. They are also pissed that a government that swore the children were in danger, still have not removed the MEN from the farm three months after the children were returned to it.
With a trumped up original excuse for a warrant, yes some Freepers have been pissed about abuse of due process and the lack of attention to Constitutional guarantees. That's no defense of the FLDS. It's a defense of due process and Constitutional guarantees, so they are there when you and I need them.
And frankly, it's an embarrassment that some Freepers still can't understand these concepts.
“Freepers have been pissed that the government focused on the children instead of the male adults.”
This is where you attempt to mislead Freepers.
The CPS focused on the children (it’s their job), and the LE focused on the male adults (it’s their job).
“That’s no defense of the FLDS. It’s a defense of due process and Constitutional guarantees, so they are there when you and I need them.”
They are ‘rights’, not guarantees. No one guarantees that someone, somewhere, sometime, even someone in authority, won’t violate your rights. But, you do have the justice system to address those violations.
Other than the 2 women who were taken as ‘minors’, who’s rights were violated?
And this due process, and these rights, are still ‘there’. The raid hasn’t altered the Justice system or Constitution.
You may not like the process set in place by the law to deal with the rights of children, but there it is. It's not unconstitutional.
