Judge Says Charlie Gard’s Parents Can’t Take Him to U.S. Even Though He Was Given U.S. Residency

In the course of the hearing, British high court Justice Francis said their son cannot be moved to the United States for treatment without a court order, squashing hope that a move to grant him residency in the U.S. would help him, according to The Independent.

Earlier this week, U.S. Congressional leaders approved a measure to grant Charlie and his parents permanent residency status in an effort to make it easier for him to receive an experimental treatment. Pro-life Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Washington, led the effort; her daughter also was diagnosed with a fatal condition but survived because of an experimental treatment.

Charlie’s parents and his hospital are involved in an on-going legal battle over his medical care. The 11-month-old British infant suffers from a mitochondrial disease and brain damage.

Why can't they take him out of hospital? What is the law on that there?

Because in a socialized medicine, single payer system, you can’t have anyone making individual choices, especially if those choices disagree with the ones made by the commissars.

ColdOne, I’m with you. Take that kid and get outta Dodge. Do not take anything with you, as if you were escaping from the Nazis. Just FLEE.

“Because in a socialized medicine, single payer system, ..”

I can remember when Hillarycare didn’t allow people to use their own money to save their own lives. Thankfully that did not pass.

England and the EU now own Charlie.
He is their property to kill.

This judge will rot in hell.

Oh yeah, we want ‘single payer’ in USA? (sarc) NOT NO, BUT HELL NO! Death Panels, and Socialized Medicine is like having a Dictator Judge decide who lives and dies!

DEMOCRATS ARE NUTS FOR SUCH AN IDEA!

Who was the person, talking head or DNC agent, who said that we don’t own our kids, the state does? Probably should be spelled State.

Charlie’s parents are learning just what that means.

This is 99.9999% about the arrogance of those types of personalities who wind up in positions of power in socialist systems. Nothing more, nothing less. There are few societies in the world that are more hierarchical than Britain, and those who wind up in bs positions within the NHS are amongst the worst. There are some truly unimpressive but dramatically self-indulgent and arrogant people in positions of power within the British health care system - including those at not-so-great Ormand Street hospital. This is what socialism looks like. You're either in the politburo, or you are a pawn. Wonderful.

If I were these parents I would denounce my British citizenship and seek political asylum from an oppressive regime.

The socialist demons are trying to run the clock down on this baby. Every minute, he gets weaker and less likely to recover. They're counting on that, to show that they can have their way with peoples' lives. How freakin' EVIL is that? And when the baby dies, they will say, "Oh well. He was irreparably ill. Not our fault."

I don't understand why the parents can't organize a getaway car and just grab him and get him out of there. Does the baby belong to the parents or the state?

Now it is obvious for all the world to see why Britain is soon to be no more and why socialized medicine is an insane idea.

But the UK will readily admit millions of muzzies into their country. This is only a White kid, and has no value in the eyes of the UK government.

Don’t know, but they should be aware that eventually almost all people who think they way they do wind up being either bitten by the evil system they support, or reach a violent end.

This is heart wrenching. This poor kid. And it’s amazing Schumer was on TV today saying, yet again, “single payer” is STILL on the table for Democrats. When Charlie Gard is the face of exactly what happens to you under single payer socialized medicine. Somebody needs to brand the Democrats as The Charlie Gard Party. NOW!
