Legislative Dishonesty
By Thomas Sowell
June 29, 2012

Nowhere is political rhetoric more shameless — or more dangerous — than in the pious names that politicians give to the legislation they pass. Perhaps the most egregious example is the so-called Indian Child Welfare Act, which callously sacrifices the welfare of Indian children.

Time and again, children with some American Indian ancestry, who have been adopted by families that are not of that ancestry, have been suddenly taken by law from the only parents they have ever known and transferred to some distant Indian reservation, to live among strangers in a world they know nothing about.

You might think that the sight of bewildered, desperate, and weeping children in court, crying out for Mommy and Daddy as they are forcibly removed from people who have cared for them for years, might cause those who are seizing them to relent. But no! Such children are routinely sacrificed on the altar of the Indian Child Welfare Act.

The child might be two years old or twelve. But the legal rights of a biological relative and tribal authorities trump the well-being of the child, even if that biological relative has been a complete stranger to the child.

Some years ago, the chairman of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission visited a 14-year-old girl who had been removed from her adoptive parents and was living on an Indian reservation, where she was miserable. But when the story came out, outrage was directed not at those who had ruined this girl’s life, but at the member of the Civil Rights Commission who had dared to intrude on the sacred soil of the Indian reservation.

Similar things have happened to black children raised by white foster parents. There is no congressional legislation in these cases, but the dogmatism of social workers and so-called social-welfare departments can lead to the same results. However, the absence of federal legislation enables those judges who have common sense, and common decency, to prevent similar tragedies.

What is behind such perverse racial policies? Theories, ideologies, and presumptions of superior wisdom and virtue. It has been known for centuries that there are people, especially among the intelligentsia, who love humanity in the abstract but are not all that concerned about what happens to the actual flesh-and-blood human beings who are subjected to their grand visions and policies.

If the vogue is that children should be raised in their own racial culture, that overrules other considerations. As T. S. Eliot said, long ago: “Half of the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don’t mean to do harm — but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.”

Adoptive parents will know what I am talking about.

This is why we did not adopt stateside. We knew other people who did not realize that they were adopting the biologicals too after just a short period of time.






And because I know what is about to come because I've opened up to share, keep this in mind when you see what Throb is about to post.

Best wishes to Princess. I think she's fortunate to have your doting self in her life . . and her burrow-raiding vicious killing poodle.


Junior has a birthday today.

You were judged unfit to adopt American children, and as a result had to go shoppin' for Chinese discards on the world spot market.

I'm sure the government of China appreciated your hard currency.
 
Thank you.


Happy Birthday to him.

I need to start saving up for a model A.


You're welcome.


He's an outstanding person - I know you'd like him irl.


I have a coffee can on the closet shelf for spare cash towards a model A . . . except I think I'll forsake the A for an example of one of Virgil Exner's "Forward Look" Mopars. There's this Chrysler for sale in Hawtlanta . . . can you say "hemi"?


Sure, I knew you could.
 
I've seen the Princess play Carbon.

No way does she get a Hemi!



Something beat up and running on half its cylinders... :)
 
Junior has a hemi.


A very large, nice shiny Generation 3 one, with lots of "joose".


He stimulated himself and bought it with his own coin.


And he tossed the Old Man the keys . . . :D:D:D:D
 
What's a Library?


Besides, I have the Intrawebz and Google.


We don't need no steenking libraries.


Comancheros can't read.
 
I think we need those libraries for SciFi movie props.


It seems every movie about the future requires dusty cob-webbed shelves of books...
 
Ditto. Except it's not a poodle. :D



"Poodle" is a Wat-ism for all of those creatures.


Wat does cats.


And poodles are not to be misunderestimated. I had one once that was a righteous bitch and beat everything in her yard . . . and there was no mistaking it was her yard.

You're an asshole.

But I'm laughing.
 
Throb, thanks for showing your complete ignorance you fucking racist.
The Chinese standards are much higher than the American standards.
Throb sagt, ich gewinnen!

Sure they are, AJ, sure they are.
*musses AJ's greasy hair*


Didja ever stop to think that you are now aiding and abetting China's noxious "one child" policy by taking in a discarded female?

Didn't think so.
 
Winning!!!

Thank you so very much for proving how fucking partisan hate can make you so pathetically stupid as to sound off as an expert on something you know nothing about.

Next time, stick to your favorite tricks for luring children into your car.
 
I'm not the kind of guy who'd shoot a guy in the back.


Wait.


Yes I am.
 
If he's carrying a Tommy Gun, what other choice do you have?


The collateral damage might be you!
