Someone must stand up for what is right, so people can know the difference. How can anyone criticize or condemn those who govern our nation without striving to educate and fight for what’s right? Decision-makers will make decisions based on the information and knowledge they have available to them; if that information is limited, partial, biased or false, the decisions made upon it will also be flawed. If we do not do our part to educate, we are part of the problem, not part of the solution.

I have signed another petition as well. I am not affiliated with FLDS but do believe that their constitutional rights were terribly violated in the Texas raid. And now continue to be violated for not being allowed to have a voice AT A HEARING REGARDING FLDS. And why has there been no INVESTIGATION of CPS and Texas authorities after two higher courts found that the raid was unjustified? Also, how is it Warren Jeffs is in jail for accomplice to rape when THERE WAS NEVER ANYONE CHARGED WITH RAPE? Everything about this STINKS! America is NOT a free country anymore. The government (our trusted politicians) CAN and WILL do to innocent people whatever the hell they want.

I am not affiliated with FLDS. I believe that the this government is persecuting these people for their beliefs. Certainly no one condones child abuse but where is the evidence? And why, good Senators, do you look the other way at SO MANY CHILDREN in this country who are being horribly abused and even MURDERED while in FOSTER CARE while the tax payers of this country pay for it? Every year you do nothing but you will waste taxpayers money on this hearing when no abuse was found in the Texas trial? You will not let the voice of FLDS be heard but you will listen to the crackpots who EVEN got cut off on the NANCY GRACE show.
