As for the use of force to return the child, it was totally unnecessary and uncalled for. Janet Reno's own friend of 30 years (whose name escapes me at the moment), was very close to a peaceful settlement when the government storm troopers violently kidnapped the boy from his relative's house. This will go down in history like the Waco incident, in that it was a very embarrassing day for America, and shows us what some people in positions of government power will do just to get their own way. This is very dangerous thinking by the American "powers that be", and in my opinion, it was a totally un-American way to react to the developing situation. Yogi
