  Stolen pizza?  This is a job for S.W.A.T. !!!!

  S.W.A.T. recovers precious pizza


   Yet another example of what our government (Federal, State, AND local) feels it can/should do to it's citizens. It's too much to ask a deputy to go to the door and place the teens under arrest. No; we have to deploy a fucking trained tactical combat team to kick in the door to a private residence and come running inside armed to the teeth with fingers on the trigger just to pry the pizza from the teen's greedy fingers.


  :slap


  I just wonder what they will be kicking in peoples' doors and sticking assault rifles in their faces for next. Failure to acquire insurance?

Nope. The next thing they'll be called for is to get a kitten out of a tree.

  So much for the 1st Amendment

   A local father involved in a messy divorce has been barred from taking his 3-year-old daughter to church on Easter.

Wednesday, Joseph Reyes asked a judge if he could take his daughter to Catholic Mass on Easter Sunday. The judge refused his request.

I agree with the wife.  My husband and I agreed to raise our daughter catholic.  I think he'd have the right to be pissed if I all of a sudden decided raise her Muslim behind his back.

  But that's between you and him. The courts can't- back when we had a Constitution; couldn't - dictate to either of you which church you can or cannot attend with your child.

If Enrique had a restraining order against me, they could. 

The dude baptized the child against the mother's will.  That is a big deal.

 Hmm. You sure about that? A restraining order doesn't supersede the Bill of Rights. I don't see how a court can legally bar anyone from a church. Being she is a minor and her father at the time had legal custody; she was his responsibility.
 
 I get the whole "it's a big deal" thing, and the dude baptized the child against the mother's wishes, etc.  Yes, it's a big deal; I agree. But I do not agree that the courts should be able to tell ANYONE they can or cannot go to which or what church or what religion they can or cannot raise their child under. That's between him and the mom. The courts shouldn't have anything to do with it; unless she sues him for something like breach of trust or something along those lines. And even then; they should only be addressing the broken agreement and punitive measures for that alone; not dictating who goes to what church.

My understanding is that they had a legally binding agreement as part of the divorce.  He violated, she received some sort of injuction and he went and did his thing anyway.  If he's violating legally binding agreement and/or court orders/injuntions then it absolutely IS the business of the court.

An Ohio man who pleaded guilty to punching children in the head at a Walmart store has been sentenced to five years' probation and fined $150.

Court records show 68-year-old Ralph Conone (kuh-NOH'-nee) pleaded guilty to three counts of assault last week in Franklin County Municipal Court. He was sentenced by Judge Scott VanDerKarr on March 30 to 180 days in jail and fined. The jail time was suspended in exchange for probation.

Police say Conone would strike children in the head with a key protruding from his fist while roaming the store.

Unreal.

www.oathkeepers.org

You know, generally speaking their list of "orders we will not obey" is something to which I have no objection whatsoever.

But there's a lot of other stuff on that site bordering on crackpottery.

"...school officials suspended him for using what appeared to be the hollow body of a pen to blow small plastic balls at three students during his lunch period last December.

The 14-year-old initially was hit with a 10-day suspension, but the Spotsylvania County School Board later voted to extend the punishment for the rest of the school year, citing the Student Code of Conduct's requirement that a student found with "any type of weapon, or object used to intimidate, threaten or harm others" be "expelled for a minimum of 365 days" unless "special circumstances exist."

The district also referred the case to the Spotsylvania Sheriff's Office, which charged him with three counts of misdemeanor assault.
Capt. Liz Scott Spotsylvania Sherriff's Office says while Mikel's punishment may be controversial, "assault is assault is assault. There were three victims that were involved in this, and I think the public needs to remember that."

The school's punishment may have been harsh and they obviously don't give a fuck about setting this kid back, but I can understand their actions more than the formal charges from the sheriff's office.

"Assault is assault is assault" is the most ludicrous statement in the entire article. In this case, I would say there is a clear difference.

The fact that the school went this far makes me think there is something else that isn't being reported in the story. Perhaps some previous history with this student being a troublemaker.

Hopefully, the kid completes diversion and any remaining records will be sealed once he is 18.
