A crime against children

This is the type of story that rips at the heart -
that this kind of abuse was EVER allowed.

Their spokesman is a hero on my book.

For the full story.

CONDEMNING YOUTH TO A PSYCHIATRIC HELL:
Subjected to a lifetime of brutal psychiatric "treatment" subsidized

Most will be transferred to Canadian mental hospitals — their only "crime"
a poverty-stricken background or a lack of education.

Freedom from slavery is covered by Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, illustrated by this short film.
