Stop infantilizing everyone. FFS.

Archive: https://archive.today/7bDOR

From the post:

>A mother-of-four was handcuffed in front of her children and hauled off to jail after she allowed her 11-year-old son to walk less than a mile into a small town. Brittany Patterson went to drive her eldest son to a medical appointment on October 30, and her youngest, 11-year-old Soren, was supposed to tag along - but was not around when it was time to leave, Reason Magazine reports. She had figured he was simply playing in the woods or visiting his grandmother, Patterson told the outlet, noting that her father lives with them and her mother and sisters live just two minutes away.

Keep begging for "law and order" see what happens.

What is the root of the problem in this instance? The police! As usual. Creating problems where there is none. They have to justify the fact that there are too many of them wasting our tax dollars somehow.

Right? What fucking moron cop would do this? Its a small fucking town, the cop should have said "hey kid, need a ride? your mom know where you are"? That is about as far as it should have gone.
