The good news is that everyone seems to realize that the law is nonsense. If only legislators could see this more often.

Don't we all love how the government ALWAYS knows what's best for us. I could see if this was a full scale arts n crafts and slides kind of place, but seriously....a few kids and a mom.

On fox now ... Lady called DHS and was told no kids. She says, what if it's raining, can they at least come into the garage? DHS says, tell their parents to buy an umbrella.

Neighbor snitched.

It's good to see that the governor got directly involved and helped, but the fact that an agency was giving her crap in the first place is BS. After all, this easily could have gone the other way if the governor's views were slightly different.

White neighborhood,dang trouble makers,where is the DHS when 30 illegal families live in one house letting kids run everywhere would it help if I reported them.

Back in my middle school; days when it was bad weather I rode the bus. The house where the bus stop was always opened their garage door so we could get in out of the weather. There were some times 20 of us waiting at that stop.
His neighbor complained to the school and the city - he was told you don't like it move!
How times have changed!
This was in the early 70's

Smells a bit like "Der Deutches Reich, 1939", doesn't it ?
