Current Action - FLDS situation

I am probably just going to target one situation at a time (unless there are two really promanant ones that need imeadiate attention)
Currently we are targetting the unjust FLDS situation.
This blog is to inform those that already oppose CPS custody of the FLDS children, of actions they can take. It is not to debate or discuss the situation.
You can ask questions in the "comments" part at the end of each post on this blog. http://fldsview.blogspot.com/

Quote from CPS spokesman Patrick Crimmins.
"authorities removed pictures and teachings of Warren Jeffs from some scriptures, then gave the books back. He says, "We obviously don't have any quarrel with the Book of Mormon, or the Bible, or the Koran." He says the problem is when children are reading the words of a convicted sex offender like Warren Jeffs." http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=481&sid=3348643

You must mean on some other case! They've declared themselves spectators and remained conspicuously on the sidelines. This press release came because they're getting pressure from their base to be involved, but they're not actually doing anything, much to my frustration.

I meant to say they've remained on the sidelines on the FLDS case.

I edited it, thanks.
They are on the "where to write" list too. I find thankyou's for even small things, are often the most helpfull.
Is there something specific we can do to get them to do more? What do you have in mind for them to do?
Glad to see you here. I have really appreciated your inteligent thoughts on all of this.
Thanks.
