CAPTA- The law that undermines children's rights

CAPTA- The law that undermines children's rights

(If you don't know what CAPTA is, read our brochure "Twenty Years of CAPTA", written in 1994 by Damon Coffman)

I have been SCREAMING about the upcoming renewal of CAPTA since November, 2009.

Even though CAPTA expired on September 30, 2008, renewing this stinking turd has been smoldering on the back burner while the communists have otherwise busied themselves "fundamentally transforming America".

Now the Lame Ducks have a mountain of unfinished evil agenda to try to ram through before they are expelled from the halls of Congress.

If they do not manage to shove the renewal of CAPTA through (or bury it in some other monstrosity as an amendment), CAPTA will go into 2011 without authorization.

The mere lack of reauthorization of CAPTA has apparently been no problem, because the leviathan industry of arrogant Stupid People with a bad attitude and evil agenda it created isn't about to cease and desist with their terrorism and destruction of the American family.

And of course, the field is quite littered with two dozen "me too" Federal legislation that has been passed since. Who needs to worry about the first domino that started this insane pandemic?

Well, what IS a child's right? I am not aware of anything specified in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights about children's rights.

Were the founders oblivious to children's rights?

Yes they were.

And likewise, they were oblivious to race rights, homosexual rights, women's rights.

All those old codgers did was write up a "Charter of Negative Liberties". You know- what the government supposedly "can't" do to you.

Do American kids get Constitutional Rights the day they turn 18? Or 21? Do American kids automatically receive their Constitutional Rights at birth? Or do they have Rights before birth?

"WE hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" -Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776

It seems pretty obvious that the Founders certainly did intend for EVERY US citizen to have the SAME RIGHTS, regardless of age. Or any other "special designation".

The problem then, is not that American kids have no rights- because they certainly do. The problem comes from deliberate obfuscation and misdirection- Breaking the US up into CLASSES- In this case, promoting the concept of Rights of Parents vs. the Rights of Children.

Who would want to do such a thing?

"Abolition of the family! Even the most radical flare up at this infamous proposal of the Communists.

On what foundation is the present family, the bourgeois family, based? On capital, on private gain. In its completely developed form, this family exists only among the bourgeoisie. But this state of things finds its complement in the practical absence of the family among proletarians, and in public prostitution.

The bourgeois family will vanish as a matter of course when its complement vanishes, and both will vanish with the vanishing of capital.

Do you charge us with wanting to stop the exploitation of children by their parents? To this crime we plead guilty." -Communist Manifesto of 1848

How does CAPTA undermine children's rights?

Those who would desire to foment a "problem" when none existed, merely need to implant the idea that parents are working against the "rights" of children. Which in it's most basic terms means- kids want to be left to childish, selfish behaviors, not assume responsibilities and accountability.

Contrarily, parents' number 1 job above all else is to teach their children how to be adults. Plenty of room in-between to invite an interloper.

Into this foaming mix now comes European Socialism. The lie is that kids have no rights and it's the job of international government to formulate and extend special rights to children- and aggressively enforce those "rights" against the "oppressive" parents.

That gem is the UNCRC, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Which has never been ratified by the US. Stopping it is what S.R. 519, S.J. Res 16 and H.J. Res. 42 are about.

I have been trying to educate people that the UNCRC has ALREADY been SUPPLANTED into American law and has been DE FACTO in force ever since the 1974 CAPTA was enacted.

This whole thing is a pitiful, insane nightmare that enslaves American children by denying them their American Constitutional Rights, particularly their Fourth Amendment Right "to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

I am not a lawyer and I do not pretend to give legal advice. If you need legal advice, see AFRA's Lawyer Friends who certainly are not pretenders (http://familyrights.us/info/law) I merely relate the things I learned in the past that seemed to work in my own case or things that others have related to me that worked in their cases. I provide information for free and do not expect to receive any form of payment or reward on this side of heaven. Therefore, DO NOT rely on this information as legal advice. Real Legal advice would come from a real lawyer who hates CPS and prepares a VIGOROUS DEFENSE against a negative (proving nothing happened) instead of talking you into a plea bargain (http://familyrights.us/bin/The_Problem_with_Plea_Bargaining.htm)
