Georgia Police Arrest Mom Because Her
Son Went for a Walk

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 11/22/2024 12:48:20 AM

Brittany Patterson lives in a rural part of Georgia with her four kids. Her husband is a superintendent at a school in Montana and is away much of the time. Last month, Patterson had to take one of her children to the doctor's office. She left her 10-year-old son Soren (he's nearly 11) at home with her father, the boy's grandfather. At some point, Soren decided to go for a walk to a local gas station where he knew his best friend's grandmother was working. He didn't ask permission, he just went. Someone saw him walking along the road and called police.

In what nutso place to the police answer a call about "a boy walking by the road"? We use to walk about 4 miles to a country store with a gunny sack, collecting pop bottles from the ditches, which could be ransomed for the princely sum of 2 cents each. Wax lips, Atomic Fireballs and such childhood necessities were purchased. Then we walked home. Unmolested by the police. But that was back when it was Free America .....the early 1960s. I think I'd be looking at some sort of legal action against the police department for harassing children.

FTA: "...under Georgia law parents can leave a child aged 9-12 with a caretaker for up to two hours." WHAT THE HECK??? How is it that the parent's can't leave the kid with a caretaker for say.....two days while they are on vacation? This is insanity. And in GEORGIA???

I spent my summers at my Grandfathers farm...4 miles from the nearest town, single 4 way stop. 2 tiny shops, a barber, a lawyer, a bank, a post office,a volunteer firehouse and 4 churches. It still had hitching posts, and buggy steps in front of the "Finer places". There were a couple of neighboring farms, one with a mean old man that had mean dogs, but the western fence was 1500acres of state forest. There were bears, bobcats, mean bulls in some pastures, but also trout in some streams, bluegills, bass and catfish in some ponds, and woodchucks worth .25cents a tail if you shot them. The rule was....be home for supper...or anytime anyone rang the bell that hung out by the barn, unless you told someone you were gonna camp out over night. IF you were just hanging around the house and barns someone WOULD find you chores to do. So we didn't...no one would see us from breakfast(dawn) until supper(dark)...unless we got hungry enough to come back for lunch(pretty often) By age ten we were carrying guns, and building rough cabins, tenting out for days at a time...though getting back on sunday morning in time to be scrubbed and dressed for church was REQUIRED, the payoff was the old widowed aunts all followed us back to the farm after church and brought SERIOUS food they had been working on, competing with each other, LOTS of pies, cakes, cookies, casseroles, "made dishes". And YES, we walked to town, got candy or a soda...or another box of ,22's, eyeballing the knives, guns, gear at the hardware store. Any/every passing tractor or car would stop and offer a ride, or just a chat...telling us where to fish, hunt arrowheads, stop in to see a new calf, colt, kittens, puppies... or to play with their kids. Once other kids found out we were there they'd finish their chores early and walk over...or ride their ponies over(sooo jealous of any kid with a pony still today) As I got a bit older...some of those icky girls from earlier summers were not quite so Icky anymore.(some though...became hideous, farm kids generally bathed/changed clothes once a week, if they weren't church going folks, maybe once a summer) Imagine if NYC kids weren't allowed on the subways, busses or trains...or to leave their block.

Georgia is a good candidate for DOGE, Dept of Government Efficiency. There has to be better things to do than arrest a mom whose kid takes a walk. They are real crimefighters.

What a lot of baloney! I was baby sitting by myself at age 9. This woman needs to sue everyone in sight. She did nothing wrong. Her son should have told grandpa where he was going but again, the fact that he didn't should never, ever be considered illegal.What kind of law is it that a parent can only leave a child for 2 hours. What the heck is going on in Georgia?

Who was to do-gooder lady who called it in? Don't people have a right to face their accuser? Could they have an agenda? This falls in with totalitarian type activities people in those regimes are encouraged to do. Tell on your neighbors. Tell on your parents. Snitch lines (for not wearing Covid masks). Red flag laws. P'Nut and Fred may have rabies - so says some hidden lady in Texas in an email. All done anonymously by people who "think" you or your actions are a problem. And, worse, a willing State or local police force to take the anonymous person's word and be judge, jury and executioner - no exceptions, no room for common sense, all done by "the policy" ("It says so right here in manual SPCY XXXIV A, 134.p(iv) Page 1028, Paragraph 4, Section F. We're just going by the book."). All of these things are legalized swatting.

At 8 y. o. my twin sister and I would ride our bikes over 5 miles to another town to go horse back riding. No parents involved. At 11 y, o. I was babysitting 3 toddlers, 4, 3 and 1 y.o. the parents would leave me in charge for at least 6 hours..I would feed them dinner, bathe them and put them to bed. These people in GA need to get out of other peoples lives.

My parents would have been imprisoned for life. We 4 kids grew up in the 60-80's. My mom cleaned house Saturday's. The rule was "Unless you want to be recruited to help, make yourself scarce." We were out the door by 9am with a bag of snacks and a canteen of water (which we refilled with neighbor hosepipes) and didn't get back from tromping around the woods, running around the backroads, riding our horses to the two bit gas station a couple miles away for a coke, and otherwise having a bloody marvelous childhood. We made it back for dinner. My own eldest is 23 and we let him roam and wander, especially with his herd of friends. I think boys especially need that. Kids got to learn to adult somehow!

The Florida Republican Matt Gaetz has made his first big move since withdrawing from consideration to be Donald Trump’s attorney general – by starting an account on Cameo, the website that lets ordinary people pay for video messages from celebrities, dubious or otherwise. The news website Semafor first reported the move on Friday. The revelation came a day after Gaetz withdrew from the confirmation process, under fire over a House ethics committee investigation of allegations of misconduct including allegedly paying an underage girl for sex – all of which Gaetz vehemently denies.

In his column, York reported: Democrats are angry about a lot of things. But the three that have attracted some attention in the last few days are 1) the massive amount of money Harris spent and where it went, 2) the campaign role Harris gave to former Rep.

About a month ago we learned that Chinese hackers had targeted the phones of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. The hackers, dubbed "Salt Typhoon" were known to have targeted their phones, along with the phones of other government figures, however it wasn't known exactly how far they got. Yesterday, Sen. Mark R. Warner, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said this was the worst telecom hack in US history. The networks are still compromised, and booting the hackers out could involve physically replacing “literally thousands and thousands and thousands of pieces of equipment across the country,” specifically outdated routers and switches, Warner said.

Climate activists responded to the proposed contribution with outrage, claiming the sum is “paltry” and “a joke.” COP29 — formally the Conference of Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) — is the 19th edition of the U.N.’s official assembly to discuss how to globally address the alleged climate crisis.

When the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and its former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, it may have unwittingly dragged the United States into the scuffle. Under the terms of the Rome Statute, the ICC's founding treaty, signatories are bound to arrest and extradite anyone targeted by the ICC. When Russian President Vladimir Putin was served with an ICC arrest warrant in March 2023 (see International Criminal Court Issues Arrest Warrant for Vladimir Putin and Putin's War, Week 56.

Thursday morning began with news that the International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for "war crimes and crimes against humanity." Oh, and for good measure, a warrant was included for Mohammed Deif, a Hamas leader thought to be one of the masterminds behind the October 7 attacks in Israel. Who also happens to be dead. As streiff observed: The fact that the ICC ignored Hamas' responsibility for the October 7 massacre until they could slop in a healthy dose of "bothsidesism" by condemning those settler-colonists shows what a monumentally unserious organization the ICC is.

Many members of the news media were blindsided by the results of the 2024 elections. Their coverage was utterly detached from the issues voters care about. The economy was treated as an afterthought among wealthy Democrats who make up most of the population of legacy media newsrooms and TV production meetings. On the Friday before the election, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released its October jobs report. A gain of 108,000 jobs had been expected, but the actual number was just 12,000. It was the worst jobs report since the pandemic. The private sector lost 28,000 jobs while government growth added 40,000 public sector employees.

One day prior to the inauguration, he was told by his unit leadership to “stand down,” and that his orders had been revoked.

I presume at this writing that President Donald Trump is completely unaware of what Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi did during her time in office.
