Oh Lawd, Be Them Some Neo-Nazis?

You know, I have really fucking had it with the double-standards and arrogant ideals humans hold themselves to. An ongoing investigation in my city has leg to an alleged Neo-Nazi's kid's being taken by Child Family Services in response to the discovery of his ideals.

Quote:

"The children may be at risk due to the parents' behaviour and associates. The parents might endanger the emotional well-being of the children," CFS wrote in court documents obtained by the Free Press.

Now, I have a huge problem with this entire situation. Certainly we don't want these narrow-minded undesirables indoctrinating the next generation... but that label of prejudice and extreme idealism doesn't apply only to Neo-Nazis.

I have seen more Christians drag their children to church every Sunday morning to learn about God and then dress them up in shirts woven with words of hatred and parade them about during protests. When I look back through legal bills I see more active protesting and proselytizing on the part of Christians than I do of any other group (including Neo-Nazis). I consistently find that as a movement, Christians are exceedingly less tolerant than any other group.
And nothing gets done.

But, Heaven forbid, a Neo-Nazi tries to raise a child according to his beliefs, and not your's (or the majority's). Heaven forbid that instead of wearing an obnoxious shirt that praises Jayasus the Lawd the kid draws a Swastika on her skin. Man, and the audacity of the guy who, instead of dragging his kids to church to be indoctrinated with sugar-wrapped lies, fills them with words of hate he learned in the modern age.

What the fuck happened to freedom of speech? Are we now not allowed to have our own opinions? I look at this case and I don't see a Neo-Nazi's kids being taken by a concerned government, rather an insecure government overreacting and stepping outside its rights by taking a man's kids based on his differing ideals. Why don't you imagine what would happen if the roles were reversed, and the ideals you so decry were in place of yours. If your opinions differed, your kids would certainly be taken... yet you condemn that... but here you've done the same.
Not only is that a double-standard with regards to Neo-Nazism vs. Christianity, but a blatant example of hypocrisy. You've done the exact thing you are seeking to avoid happen because it's "wrong".

Go fuck yourself.

Am I the only person with an opinion on this matter, or something?

Remember: Since it's for a religion, it's okay to do that kind of thing.
