A perp walk would be child abuse... (re: Balloon Boy Article)

But teaching your kids that it's ok to lie and manipulate the police, etc is not abuse?

"If law enforcement arrest mom and dad in the presence of kids whether mom or dad are guilty, innocent, or somewhere in between that's child abuse," Lane said. There's no excuse for law enforcement to contact the media, to bring them out in full view of their kids on TV, and arrest mom and dad."

I am very proud to say I missed this whole charade.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I think they should be happy to be arrested in public. They wanted the publicity, no? So let's give it to them.

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen." Conan O'Brien

^I bet I know what that Louisiana judge would say about it.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
