Child Endangerment

 

Many jurisdictions have legal codes that define an adult taking a child to an event or location that "a reasonable person" can identify as "hazardous" as a felony called "child endangerment".

So, if I took a child surfing in heavy weather, took a child to a rave or to midnight street racing, I would likely lose custody of that child even if the child was not injured.

Given prior events, "a reasonable person" would likely conclude that tear-gas will be deployed if your buddies are trying to breach the perimeter fence of a Federal facility.

In my universe, the parent(s) are guilty of putting that child in harms-way. Blaming ICE for doing their job is to turn the children into human shields.

  1. Joe that is why they act out in politically and legally "safe areas " for using children as shields.

    BTW non leftist will still be charged for child endangerment.

    A nation with two tire of law isn't stable. The 2 minded man scripture comes to mind.

    1. That has been clear for some time.

      The professor who was fired for cheering the assassination of Charlie Kirk sued. He was reinstated and the court ruled that he was owed $500k in damages.

      A teacher in Los Vegas asked "Why can black people say the word "nigger" but white people are forbidden?" She was fired. I will be watching with interest to see if she is also given $500k in damages.

  2. This is who they are... the level of sickness and demented thinking surpasses most of our comprehension. They are the victim here, can't you see that?!?!

  3. Rabid leftists are willing to sacrifice children for their agenda. Their children, your children, anyone's children. More evidence that leftists are fundamentally defective.

  4. Kids as human shields - they learned that trick from the Palestinians. It will probably work, too. An injured or dead kid that can be paraded as a martyr would be an immense propaganda tool against ICE and Trump. It's a despicable tactic, but it's going to be used.

  5. Nobody ever said they were sane... And yes, using the kids as human shields is a typical muslim trick.

  6. People seem to be finding a narrative to fit their pre-conceved notions what I can tell as a current resident of Portland. I'd certainly question the judgement of parents who had their children the head of the line but am not that inclined to fault anyone who got gassed a couple of blocks away which is what seems to have happened to many people Saturday

    What seems to have happened Saturday was a use of force (chemical irritants) that wasn't a reaction tailored to respond to a specific threat (with the minimum force needed) and was immediately deployed beyond the immediate perimeter of ICE's leased facility South of Downtown Portland. Surely many people here are familiar with use of force policies employed by professional police agencies or rules of engagement in a military context. I'm curious how many folks think what happened was a professional response by a well trained police force using the minimal necessity force to respond to a demonstrated threat.

    I have seen consistent behavior in the area from federal agents that is far from anything approaching professional policing. The last people they shot here were during the course of executing a traffic stop while not wearing uniforms and driving rental vehicles from the airport. I'd be shocked if most people commenting here thought what the USA needs is more secret police as we understood from the other side of the iron curtain.

    1. Yeah, I'd stay anonymous also.

      Opinion from someone unwilling to be identified BUT unmask ICE so we can doxx and terrorize them at their hotels and their families.

      Color Revolution. Not "Peaceful Protests" protected by the Constitution.

    2. This is where I have trouble reconciling your narrative and the headlines.

      The mayor is "outraged that ICE DOUSED children with tear-gas". That can only happen if the children are very close to where it is being deployed. You are describing incidental contact from a drifting cloud.

      So...did the mayor lie!!! Did she deliberately embellish and exaggerate to egg citizens on?

      Or is your information partial. There were children at the riots two blocks back AND there were also children in-the-scrum.

      The third possibility is that the journalist twisted the mayor's words.

      None of those possibilities is exactly flattering.

    3. Folks might want to remember history.

      The Boston Massacre was a bunch of snowball and ice ball throwing folks AT Armed British Soldiers.

      SNIP Amid tense relations between the civilians and the soldiers, a mob formed around a British sentry and verbally abused him. He was eventually supported by seven additional soldiers, led by Captain Thomas Preston, who were hit by clubs, stones, and snowballs. Eventually, one soldier fired, prompting the others to fire without an order by Preston. The gunfire instantly killed three people and wounded eight others, two of whom later died of their wounds.[4]

      And THAT incident was published wildly across the colonies to "prove" British Solders were nasty folks and so on.

      ALL to GENERATE Support for a rebellion and revolution.

      SOUNDS A LOT LIKE CURRENT EVENTS in Portland and so on does it not?

      SNIPThe right to assemble is explicitly stated in the First Amendment, which reads: "Congress shall make no law... abridging... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." This provision ensures that citizens can gather without government interference, forming a cornerstone of democratic societies.

      Please EXPLAIN how ramming attacks on law officers doing their duties, attacking them at their hotels as they rest and so on are

      Peaceable assembly and addressing grievances.

      They're not, just a revolutionary attempt to generate support for a Color Revolution.

  7. This time of year, ICE should be hosing them down with fire trucks.
