Jerry Cox, director of the Little Rock-based Family Council, has it backwards. His group’s desire for confidentiality of public records is the basis of intimidation, not the dissemination of public records. Not too long ago it was the anonymity provided by the white hoods of the KKK that emboldened acts of group hate. Now, Mr. Cox wants special protection to hide his cohorts’ support of bad and bigoted public policy on adoption. If you’re assured anonymity, it’s too easy to be carried away by an emotional appeal, and Mr. Cox wants to keep it that way. Signing his petition felt good at the time since there are no personal consequences to give you pause. In my world, everyone who signed the petition should get a letter from an Arkansas child without a permanent foster or adoptive home, or better yet, a face-to-face visit. In addition, they should be put on fund raising lists for every AR children’s charity, so they can protect AR children. After all, isn’t that the goal of the Mr. Cox’s Family Council?
