[QUOTE]Originally posted by Baloo: [QB] I haven't been following this story very closely. I have a few questions: [list=1] [*]Would the family have refused to hand the child over if a federal marshall had shown up at the front door with a court order for the child to be turned over? [*]Was it a significant possibility that the family would use weapons to ensure that the child remained on their premises? [*]What reasoning did the federal government use to justify drug-raid tactics to secure a small child for deportation (or whatever they're calling it)? [/list] Federal marshalls don't do that sort of raid without being ordered to do exactly thus. The action would have to have been approved by Janet Reno, who would have, in turn, have had to inform the President of her intentions. Politely, but firmly asking for what it wants does not seem to be a part of the Justice Department's repertoir of late. This worries me (though not endlessly -- I've had more pressing issues on my agenda of late). --Baloo [/QB][/QUOTE]
