ACLU of Texas Observing FLDS Custody Hearings in San Angelo



The ACLU of Texas has issued this press release that includes these comments:

. . . “While we acknowledge that Judge Walthers’ task may be unprecedented in Texas judicial history, we question whether the current proceedings adequately protect the fundamental rights of the mothers and children of the FLDS,” said Terri Burke, Executive Director of the ACLU of Texas.

“As this situation continues to unfold, we are concerned that the constitutional rights that all Americans rely upon and cherish – that we are secure in our homes, that we may worship as we please and hold our places of worship sacred, and that we may be with our children absent evidence of imminent danger – have been threatened,” Burke said . . .

    What gives you the right to make this statement, when you are against our basic fundamental rights to begin with. You people need to stay out of this, these people are hiding the truth and lying about everything they’ve been asked. America has certain laws that we all must obey and an investigation into the actions of this group is required to get to the bottom of things. If this group hasn’t broke any laws then they’ll be probable returned to their home, but if not then you people will make sure that it is turned into a circus.
