Only in largely,
unparalleled incompetent, uncivilized and criminal Haiti an 11-year-old boy, for example,
finds himself behind bars. In the civilized world the Department of Social Services,
rather, is the mandated government's agency to care for him when there is a need for so.
Sure the extreme violence-issued Preval's government is practizing "gross child
abuse." It is time for Human rigths groups to act. |
