That is very sad. I can't even begin to understand the thought process of whoever kept that baby in the room when he was clearly having a medical emergency.

Every officer involved in holding that family should be charged with murder.

Our anal-retentive, overly-paranoid, no-common-sense government is doing more harm these days than good. And it must stop.

He would've probably just grown up to cure cancer or something........

This is sad. Lawsuits all around.

Uh...did you read the article? The baby wasn't abandoned. The baby's parents flew him to the US from Samoa to get a life-saving operation. They were detained by airport security and DHS because of a paperwork mixup, and subsequently the baby died because emergency medical care was delayed.

Thanks government! I hate it when people care more about their job than morals and ethics.

Come on guys, keeping America safe isn't always pretty. If we're going to protect the homeland, things like this will happen from time to time.

Bureaucracy in action.






A bunch of GS employees playing CYA with each other, truly sad and disgusting.

But, hey, no one broke a rule!

even if it is sarcasm (although that probably is going to be the excuse the authorities use), things like this shouldn't have happened--its a baby. a baby isn't a terrorist. it was 14 days old--even if they detained the rest of the group, the baby should have been able to get to the hospital in time.
