Funamentalist Latter Day Saint Children Were Wrongfuly Removed From There Polygamous Families.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/05/22/AR2008052200548.html?hpid=artslotThis case was reminescent of how the Yenish were seized by the Swiss,http://mondediplo.com/1999/10/11gypsy and also how the Amerindians were sent to the Carlisle Indian School. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlisle_Indian_Industrial_School These actions were intended to forcibly assimilate minorities into the predominate society. What the government should do instead, is to help to improve the lives of outcast people, and assist them in reaching there fullest indivisual potential. Unless they are either convicted of a crime, and/or there welfare is being jeopardised, the state should permit them to live there lives as they please. Bourgeois prejudices must be overcome, if we are to ever become a tolerant and free society.
