Again, these people are not religious at all. The vast majority of Christian Zealots take photos of their kids in the bath as "mementos of childhood" as do many other people of all cultures/beliefs.

However, there is one group that thinks if you give your kid a bath and wash their body, your actually fondling them and molesting them.

These are clearly and definitely the "Ultra" Liberal crowd whom hate anything that has to do with "Family".

I rest my case, now it is up to you to provide a decent counter argument.

And who is this ultra liberal family hating group that you are alluding to (and seemingly trying to warn us of)?

Not everyone can afford a digital printer or a digital camera. This is over the top and I hope those parents clean the bank.

My kid is half naked in a lot of pictures because he would get diaper rash at the drop of a hat. So I had to keep the diaper off of him as much as possible, to avoid a painful rash.

Better hide those pictures or face arrest lol, and don't you dare show them to anyone, even within your family. If you do that you could probably be arrested for distribution of child pornography.

We are trying, but the media refuses to here us. what would you suggest?Especially if you were behind bars for fighting it.
Once again to stay on topic, this happens all the time. Those parents are lucky they got their kids back at all. I have heard wal-mart is impossible to sue, I have hear a lot of stories of failed suits like the child whos arm was broken by a wal-mart employee whos family lost the case.

I was watching the news and they had this couple on there talking about what happened and WOW. What the heck?!!? I use to work in a photo lab and the developer is the one makes the call on whether a pic is inappropriate. I use to develop pics of many kids playing and even ones in the tub. They are harmless! My mom has tons of these pics. Heck you should have seen what I saw during Spring Break, those were interesting and I still developed them and gave them to the customer. I know when I worked in the lab you werent really even supposed to look at pics people brought in, just flip through to look and see if any needed to be adjusted thats all! This walmart tech person is IMO an idiot. How would they feel if this was done to them? IDK if that person has kids but I would love to see their family albums! This poor family didnt deserve this and those kids sure as hell didnt deserve to be taken away from their family! Its really sad that you have to worry about pics you take of your kids. My sister has cute pics of my nephew playing in the tub, I better tell her NOT to go to Walmart anymore.

I can't imagine a scenario in which the state would actually take possesion of my child.

Did Social Services just knock on their door, and explain that they would be taking custody?

Attempt to take my child from me.
See how far you get.

This isn't the first family this has happened to. Welcome to Christian America, the only place in the world where they find filth in baby nudes.

Doesn't sound like the actions of "Christian America" to me.
Sounds more like ultra-liberal feminist social workers employed by "The State".

There, see, we can all make assumptions based on our personal viewpoints.

I agree, as a christian I feel compelled to say that I am offended by the fact that this became an issue in the first place. I see nothing wrong with taking a picture of your naked baby in the bathtub. It's a memory, and good material later on when they start to date.

What is the world coming to really? I know we weren't always like this. WTF happened? Do they think everyone molests their children these days? Do they think everyone is sick? Is this really a reason to take someones children from them?

I for one hope the accused gets a great settlement out of this lawsuit. To me this deserves more than spilling a little hot coffee on yourself....

That is where i'm coming from. Who out of the guys here hasn't had their mother break out the baby photos when a girl has come round? I mentioned that earlier, does this mean our mothers are basically paedophiles? They are afterall distributing child pornography (according to this idiotic walmart employee). I cannot even put into words how utterly stupid this walmart employee is. I can only think of two categories to put him/her into.

1. Someone who is so utterly, stupidly protective they have labelled innocent pictures as child pornography. They are part of the scare society where everyone is out to abuse a child.

2. They have a perverted mind where pictures of naked children are automatically sexually attractive. This says more about the employee than the person who took the pictures in innocence.

The real problem is cps.

THey are crazy. They totally circumvent the constitution.

The parents should be able to sue CPS for falsely imprisoning their children.

One day people will wake up to just how unamerican CPS is.

We have to be careful. On one hand, we are asked to sacrifice our 17 year olds in the name of freedom. On the other hand, they jerk our 2 year olds without much evidence in the name of safety.

Of course they don't, but they want everyone to be afraid; Child Molesters are the new Nazi or Communist; you don't have to be one for your life to be ruined.

Do they think everyone is sick? Is this really a reason to take someones children from them?

Total criminality is a well founded conspiracy, and this lends itself towards that theory. Paedophilia of any type is a catch-all that nobody will question, and that elicits a primary emotional response amongst the majority of the U.S., it is a kludge they can use against anyone because people are not willing to examine their biases.

It will be settled out of court, for a mere pittance of what Walmart would consider a punishment, because they can.

Look, I have said it for years and years... you defend the rights of people such as Paedophiles or you will find the goalposts moved behind you, and suddenly you are considered the paedophile and nobody else will come to your aid.

People who are guiltless, regardless of their predilictions, should never be punished. When they are, it opens up the ability to punish people who have done no harm but may fall on the wrong side of popular opinion.

It also causes things like the above, where the perception that if anything even resembles paedophilia, it can be used to ruin people's lives.
