[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Though it sounds a little harsh, I totally agree with the letter to the WaPo editor  below:

"As a retired law enforcement officer with 38 years of experience, I think the Meitiv parents should simply send a certified letter to local, state and federal law enforcement, including Child Protective Services, relieving those agencies of any culpability in the event their children are kidnapped, molested, injured or worse during their “free-range” escapades. They should also pin a copy of that letter to their children’s outer clothing. I suspect such parents would be the first to sue law enforcement and the county in the event anything were to happen to their kids."

Unfortunately, that would have no legal effect.  And we as a society generally do not accept that we should let them perish for their parents' stupidity.  [/quote]

You're correct of course, but it calls them out at their own game. Rightfully so, IMO.[/quote]
