From Czechoslovakia to Costa Rica and Mexico, cops have seized American overseers for caging or mistreating American teens at harsh "boot camps" run under foreign flags to escape U.S. law.

But here at home, the companies that ship teenagers to remote reform schools can freely go about their business in many states. You can dial 1-800-355-TEEN to reach the sales staff of Teen Help, LLC, who can arrange for your child to be spirited away. They might put you in touch with "escorts," guys who can pull up to your driveway in a van and transport even the most defiant child to the airport. The next destination is up to you: a "tough love" school here in the 50 states, like Majestic Ranch in Utah or Spring Creek Lodge Academy in Montana?

Or perhaps Tranquility Bay, a barbed-wire discipline facility in Jamaica, where some of the approximately 250 teens can find themselves confined against their will and marched around by guards. Only the devil stands in the way of your consumer choice. The devil, that is, and a lone congressman, Rep. George Miller, D-Calif.

I don't believe in God. My god is patriotism. Teach a man to be a good citizen and you have solved the problem of life.

CZECH-USA-MORAVIA-CRIME

The American citizen Steven Roach, who is suspected of having
tortured teenagers in his private Morava Academy education
institution near Brno, is still at large.  

Police said on Wednesday they believe he has fled the country to
avoid criminal investigation.  If found guilty, he could go to jail
for up to eight years.

A police source said Roach may have secretly returned to the United
States.  His wife and two instructors are facing the same charges.
Roach, the only member of the team to have spent some time in
police custody, was released on bail last year.

Isn't someone still looking for Glenda and Steve?

If only ShortBus would use his powers for good instead of evil.  :em:

During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry, and persecution.
