Utter fucking madness

Try convincing a six-year-old to remain silent.
From behind the paywall:
Ultimately the child was no match for Avon Park’s finest. The cops pulled her from under the table and handcuffed her. The officers were not fooling around. In the eyes of the cops the 6-year-old was a criminal, and in Avon Park she would be treated like any other felon.
There was a problem, though. The handcuffs were not manufactured with kindergarten kids in mind. The chief explained: “You can’t handcuff them on their wrists because their wrists are too small, so you have to handcuff them up by their biceps.”
As I sat listening to Chief Mercurio in a spotless, air-conditioned conference room at the Avon Park police headquarters, I had the feeling that I had somehow stumbled into the middle of a skit on “Saturday Night Live.” The chief seemed like the most reasonable of men, but what was coming out of his mouth was madness.
He handed me a copy of the police report: black female. Six years old. Thin build. Dark complexion.
Desre’e was put in the back of a patrol car and driven to the police station. “Then,” said Chief Mercurio, “she was transported to central booking, which is the county jail.”
The child was fingerprinted and a mug shot was taken. “Those are the normal procedures for anyone who is arrested,” the chief said.
Hard to imagine why anyone would choose to homeschool their kids, huh?
Well, it’s all part of a grand unifying strategy, which, if you understood it, wouldn’t seem so bizarre.
Remember how angry black Floridians were at being disenfranchised in 2000 and 2004? This tactic criminalizes black people very early in life and gets them used to being felons. That way, when they’re not allowed to vote later in life, they’ll already be used to it. Presto, alakazam! No more complaining.
/snark.
Every now and then, there’s a horrific crime committed by a child. I recall one from a few years ago, where a 7? 8? year old, deliberately suffocated a toddler. Horrible, every parent’s worst nightmare.
The trend in many states is to take the decision whether to prosecute as an adult out of statuatory control, and out of judicial control, and put it solely in the hands of a prosecutor. Who can also decide whether to seek the death penalty.

Why is this behind the wall? And what kind of adult is so afraid of a 6-year-old that they would call the cops? Who would send their child to a school that pulls this kind of crap?
And, again, why is this behind the wall?
Someone remind me, what fucking country are we living in?
Florida.
It’s the new East Germany.
