Human Rights Are For Human Beings
by Doug Patton: It seems that judges are now in the business of attributing rights to animals of the two legged and the four legged variety. They release child abusers on probation and give constitutional rights to terrorists, while meting out prison sentences for animal owners and parents who discipline their children.
The San Francisco based Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just overturned the 22-year sentence of Ahmed Ressam, the so-called "Millennium Bomber." Ressam, you will recall, was convicted of trying to cross into the United States from Canada with 125 pounds of explosives in the trunk of his car. Seems he wanted to give us a little Y2K surprise on New Years Eve 1999 until an alert customs agent stopped him.
Last year, Nebraska District Court Judge Kristine Cecava told convicted child molester Richard Thompson that his crimes "deserved a long sentence." She then sentenced him to probation because he was "too short to survive in prison." Last week, another Nebraska man died in prison while serving a two-year sentence for beating his dog to death. Meanwhile, a meddling Democrat in the California Legislature wants to ban all spanking of children under the age of four. What is going on here? ...
Parental rights and property rights used to be sacrosanct in this country. Today, our legislators, and especially our courts, seem bent on turning the U.S. Constitution on its head in this area. Can you imagine a scenario whereby a terrorist and a child molester are on their way out of prison as a dog owner and a father who dared to spank his three-year-old child are on their way in? That is where we are headed. That is the future we are handing down to our children and grandchildren, and unless we stop this nonsense, they will grow up not knowing that human rights are for human beings. Read More
