REPORTER: "How is this not child abuse?" NIELSEN: "Be more specific, please"

She is one cold and angry fish. This press conference is pretty damned chilling.

"How could this NOT be child abuse?"

"Unfortunately, I am not in a position to deal with any hearsay situations."

These people are committing crimes against humanity. Did anyone think that Nielsen or any of the other perpetrators was going to crack a rueful smile, shrug, and say, "Yup, you caught us," then extend their wrists for the handcuffs?

No.

They're evil, cruel, heartless people who know very well what they're doing. There are probably about 65 whys, from their own inhumanity to prejudice to greed or what have you; figuring out the why of a criminally deranged mind is a mug's game. These people just don't care about the misery and pain they're inflicting, and they don't recognize the humanity of either their victims or their critics. Asking them questions is pointless; it's up to our elected officials to put a stop to this if they have any remaining humanity of their own.

It's less than five months until the next election. What are you committed to do between now and then if your elected officials turn a blind eye to this torture carried out in your name and on your dime?
