"We have legal custody of the children and we will do with them as we see fit," DSS worker Susan Etscovitz told the Bryants in their Gale Street home. "They are minors and they do what we tell them to do."

Both sides agree that the children are in no way abused mentally, physically, sexually or emotionally, but legal custody of the children was taken from Kim and George Bryant in December 2001. The children will remain under the legal custody of DSS until their 16th birthdays.

The parents have been ruled as unfit because they did not file educational plans or determine a grading system for the children, two criteria of Waltham Public School's home schooling policy.

This is tyranny!

It is indeed tyranny. It should disturb the hell out of you how blatant it is and how thoroughly and easily it reaches into ever facet of American life.

All parents who buck the system must be very careful of DSS.

Recently in Mecklenberg County, NC, there has been a rash of kid stealing: The Stratton Family Ordeal.

A writ of habeus corpus in federal court would be fun and likely rewarding under 42 U$C 1988.

"This is tyranny!"

And their rhetoric is 'jack-booted'. . .

"This is tyranny"

Worse than that it is judicial tyranny!

I don't remember the person who said it or if it is the right quote, "It is too late to revolt and too early to shoot them", I may be wrong.

Screw MA, screw the Department of Socialist Services.

Indeed it is tyranny. Does Ms. Escovitz even hear her own words, or realize what a monster she's become?
