Hell In a Handbasket

‘In a decision hailed by the American Civil Liberties Union, the Washington State Supreme Court ruled concerned parents cannot eavesdrop on their childrens' telephone conversations.
The high court determined a mother in the town of Friday Harbor, Wash., violated the state's Privacy Act when she listened by speakerphone to a conversation between her then-14-year-old daughter and her daughter's boyfriend, prompting the court to reverse the boyfriend's 2000 robbery conviction, the Seattle Times reported.’


Is this the kind of country we want? A country where the courts and the ACLU won’t even let parents parent. Makes you wonder who they think should raise the children. Maybe the same ACLU who is representing the North American Man/Boy Love Association in a lawsuit involving the rape and murder of a young boy?
And a ‘violation’? It is not a 'violation' it is an obligation. If a parent believes their child is heading down the wrong path, it is their obligation to investigate and to intervene. Courts be damned! There is an old saying, “Trust, but verify.” The girl was 14, for God's sakes! The boy 17, a suspect in a purse snatching!
Is there really someone out there who agrees with this insanity? Please comment...so I can destroy you.
