Indoctrinating kids and using them as props

A federal judge dismissed a climate lawsuit brought in the name of two young Philadelphia boys. One was seven and the other eleven.

This is part of a dangerous new legal tactic being attempted by climate campaigners to use children as props and plaintiffs.

“Plaintiffs’ disagreement with the defendants is a policy debate best left to the political process,” Diamond wrote. “Because I have neither the authority nor the inclination to assume control of the Executive Branch, I will grant defendants’ motion.”

This decision stands in stark contrast to a recent decision by a judge in Oregon that 21 children had the right to be named plaintiffs in a climate lawsuit.

Bonner Cohen explains that, “in both the Pennsylvania and Oregon cases, children were recruited as plaintiffs to serve the agenda of climate alarmists. Seeing this for the exploitation that it clearly is, Judge Diamond took the trouble to lambaste Judge Aiken’s judicial recklessness in allowing the political ploy to serve as the basis of a far-reaching court decision.”

The Green-Left’s focus on children is frightening. There are reasons that our laws are designed to protect children in so many ways from adults seeking to prey upon their innocence. Children and their parents have a right to an education system free of indoctrination.
