Another Case of "Well Intentioned" Government Abuse...

.

This is a tragic tale from Mesa, Arizona.

A family took their young child to a doctor with a high fever. The Dr. suggested they take the child with a 105 temperature to the Emergency Room.

When they got back to their car, the child seemed to be feeling better and they took his temperature again and it had dropped significantly.

That wasn't good enough for Child Protective Services, whom the doctor had to notify under a new AZ law.

When CPS found the family hadn't taken the child to the Emergency Room, instead of calling them, or sending someone to do a welfare check, they got a warrant and had Police forcibly remove the children from the home.

Rep. Kelly Townsend, R-Mesa, who helped craft the legislation requiring DCS to obtain a warrant before removing a child from their parents or guardians in non-emergency circumstances, said she was outraged by the response of police and DCS officials in the case.

Many people are focused on the over-the-top Police response, but the fault is ENTIRELY with CPS and the court system. The Police were mandated to carry out the directives on that warrant. That's why I don't like, or agree with the title of the video.

It's NOT cops kidnapping children, but CPS and local government.

THIS is the kind of incident that has more and more regular Americans distrusting their own government.

This sort of abuse has to be reined in before a majority of the people start seeing their government as their enemy.
