re: #257 Irish Rose

I don’t often agree with Pamela because I tend to think she’s a nutcase, but she is right on this one. The girl should not be forced to return home if she has any reasonable fear that her life might be in danger.

Our courts are simply not prepared for legislation in these matters and moving slowly on a final decision is the right thing to do.

I do however, think that it’s important to take a hard look at the “pastor” who persuaded her to leave her family and harbored her. This is not the first time that he has done this sort of thing, and his integrity and motives IMO less than pure and rather suspect.

Yeah, you’re right on, the kids safety is most important, but I would really want a good look at this pastor.
