Ja me too.  I don't defend what the Yearners are accused of doing.  But I
have never seen a more stunning example of an entry without an exit strategy
as this raid.  The Child Abductive Service said right up front that they
were unsure whose children belonged to whom.  OK, given that, what if they
learn that the original phoned-in report that triggered the raid turns out
to be a malicious hoax?  What if the charges turn out to be false or greatly
exaggerated?  What if no immediate threat is ever found to the children?
What if a court decides the raid itself was illegal?  All of the above?  

Given the state doesn't even claim to know whose children belongs to whom,
how do you undo this mess?  Just take them all back to the ranch?  What if
there are parents who eschew this church, not because they think it wrong
necessarily, but because it presented a threat, as in the state could come
in and take one's children at any time on a rumor?  What if you had visitors
there at the time who do not live at the ranch?  How do they find their
children?
