They put a baby in handcuffs!

Your reaction is, of course, precisely what the manipulative parent wanted.

Using your child as publicity tool by deliberately putting him/her in the position of being handcuffed by the police is, well, revolting. But the parent and the parent's crusade come first in this "me-first" day and age, I suppose. What good's a kid if you can't use him to do the dirty work, right?

You sound a little bitter about the prolifers' strategy to get lots of mileage out of a pic of a kid in cuffs, just because he wanted to give a drink of water to a dying woman.

Commies aren't the only ones who know how to manipulate the press!

You Libs are pissing your pants over this.

These - or any - children are not immune from disease or impairment.

Working on precedent, their actions may well save their own lives.

It sounds to me like you feel challenged....
