America Stands Alone

Somalia to Ratify CRC, United States to Stand Alone

UNICEF announced on the 20th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child November 20 that Somalia’s transitional federal government (tfg) plans to ratify the Convention, leaving the United States as the lone hold-out among the UN’s member states.

January is a great time to start new things and to get around to things you put off last year. If you haven’t checked into the need for a Parental Rights Amendment, there is no better time than right now. Please take a few minutes to visit ParentalRights.org and sign their petition (join the network) to urge Congress to pass this vital Amendment to preserve all of our freedoms by protecting parental rights.

What is it that the Welch and dozens of other countries in the civilized world see in the UN CRC that you don’t?

The parental rights amendment stands no possible chance of becoming part of our constitution. Michael Farris notwithstanding to the contrary.

All the money pouring into his hands is simply providing a fat bankroll for Washington attorneys and lobbyists. Don’t con more people into sending him their hard earned cash.

Well, I really don’t know what people in other countries see in the UN CRC, but what I see is a global Big Brother regime growing right under everyone’s noses. Why should the UN have any say as to what goes on in our borders and/or in our homes anyway? America declared its independence over 200 years ago. Sadly, the fact that someone actually had to propose such an amendment to re-affirm parental rights in the first place shows how far we have already fallen here in America. The government is taking so many liberties not granted through our Constitution that we are left with no choice but to create bills and amendments to counteract them. It’s probably not the route we’d normally want to take; however, I feel it is one we must take. There is a line drawn in the sand for us here in America between the inalienable rights granted to us by our Creator, and “rights” given by the State. Without a strong foundation of God-given rights, the State can do anything to usurp the rights of parents as head of the family. So it may seem as if this is an unnecessary amendment to the Constitution, but it is based on the over-reaching of the government. I would hate for our great free republic to become a nation where the government assumes the role of parents and supersedes the rights of parents, stipulating how they can bring up their children. It’s already happening in Europe where homeschooled children are being taken away from their parents for no good reason. That’s not civilized; it’s barbaric.
