Brian and Ruth Christine are falsely accused

Ah, but Brian and Ruth Christine aren't falsely accused anymore. They're convicted felons, found guilty by a jury of their peers, sitting in jail awaiting sentencing.

What is this sh*t about a jury of their Peers?- it didn't come from the bill of Rights-last time I read that it said an impartial jury. A jury of their peers is exactly what every criminal dreams of and their lawyer would deliver if possible. If the Christine's were guilty as charged by the anti-family state of Oregon and the jury had actually been made up of their peers, they would have their children and continuing their journey, that was turned into the family vacation from hell, by the zealots of liberalism under the pretense of protecting the children-who protects our children from the monsters in government?

THese parents are no different from any other parents in America who feel that in a free country, parents can choose to take their children on an adventure through the country in a converted to motor home-school bus, educating their own children and stopping as need demands to work and earn money to continue. Isn't that what the original settlers in Oregon did? Could they pass the litmus test for good parenting that their spoiled and pampered liberal heirs demand of any family of modest means passing through Oregon today? Hell no!

Let the government do governmental things and families do family things-that arrangement worked fairly successfully until government began to use it's superior wealth and clout to bully families into raising children as the government demanded, rather than the tried and proven method of generations past.

The best interest of the child is better served by the worst of parents than by the best of governments. Let those who doubt this compare the woes of today's child rearing to the success of yesterday,before the government bullied parents into submission to tyrany.

This miscarrige of justice has been going on for some time, but I seem to remember that the kids were more healthy and fatter when the parents had them, than when the government had them. Oops, I forgot that chubby kids are a no no these days too-only government can guarantee perfect kids. The government of course defines what the perfect kid is though and refuses to share that information with parents-classified info, dontcha know?
