Freedom in the Waste Bin of History
The Wake-up Herald
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. Romans 13:11-14

When Freedom has Officially Hit the Waste Bin of History
By Simon Black
I really hate to be negative... but this is positively revolting. Disgusting. Indescribably offensive.
In the Land of the Free recently, a California couple had their child kidnapped by the state. At gunpoint.
It all started in mid-April when Anna and Alex Nikolayev took their 5-month old son Sammy to the hospital in Sacramento to be treated for flu symptoms.
The parents didn't particularly care for the treatment that their son was receiving. Doctors were pumping him full of antibiotics and soon began talking about performing surgery.
Anna and Alex argued with the doctors and said that they were going to get a second opinion; they took the baby and went to another hospital where another physician deemed it perfectly safe for the child to return home with his parents without the need for surgery.
The next day, with the family resting comfortably at home, the police showed up with Child Protective Services.
Alex, the father, went outside to talk to them where he was thrown to the ground by police. Officers then relieved him of his house keys and proceeded to let themselves into the house with hands on their pistols.
Then, still with their hands on their pistols, they told the mother "I'm going to grab your baby, and don't resist and don't fight me..."
The child was then ripped from his mother's arms and placed into state custody, where he remained for a week.
Yesterday, a Sacramento County judge ordered that Sammy be transferred to a hospital in Palo Alto (120 miles away), and that his parents finally be given unfettered access to their son... under the condition that the State of California's Child Protective Services continue to monitor the 'situation'.
Guns. Cops. Government bureaucrats. Courts. Kidnapping. A dysfunctional medical care system.
This is what it means to be in the Land of the Free... where collecting rainwater, consuming raw milk, or seeking a second opinion on your child's medical care is now criminalized.
When you don't even have the basic right to make decisions about your own child... and when your own child can be forced from you at gunpoint in your own home that was entered illegally... you know that freedom has officially hit the waste bin of history.
Perhaps the greatest irony is that the parents are originally from Russia... but they had to come to the United States to find the Soviet Union.
Have you hit your breaking point yet? If not now, when?

Editor’s comment: Incidents similar to this are so common across America they are not considered newsworthy. A bureaucrat from the Child Protective Services (CPS) can enter your home without a court order and seize your child(ren) based on nothing more than an anonymous telephone call alleging abuse or neglect. Remember: What government can do to one family, they can do to every family. ~Pastor Robert McCurry
Wake-up, Pastors! Wake-up, Christians!
