The "BAG MAN" is an official of the Spanish State.
Spain is a country where it has always been very easy for a family to lose their children.
It is not that of women, nor that of transsexuals, nor that of immigrants. Undoubtedly, the most defenseless, vulnerable and sensitive group, but at the same time most important for the future and survival of a Society, is that of childhood. Their care and education is a fundamental strategic chapter for the survival of a State over time. For this reason, the perversions that the Spanish Political Class has lavished on this matter in recent decades could be described as HIGH-BETRAYAL.
Spain is a country where it has always been very easy for a family to lose their children. The fear of losing them is so great that a legendary fictional character named "the Man with the Sack" was generated who entered the houses and took the children. But in this article we are not going to talk to you about the more than 2,000 DISAPPEARANCES of minors that are reported each year (1,500 escapes and disappearances of children protected by the State in shelters, during the past year 2,019) or the 2,750 children who they are still missing today. On this matter we just want to highlight the strangeness that the mainstream media, from time to time, select one of these cases to make it a top-rated media show. It seems as if, doing so much deployment in a few cases and completely ignoring the others, his intention was to generate the false impression that there are very few.
What we are actually going to talk about is those children who are taken from their legitimate families by direct action or with the complicity of the Spanish State itself, which allow us to affirm that "the Man with the Sack is an official of the Spanish State".
Throughout the contemporary history of this country, 3 ways of presenting this phenomenon are identified:
CHILDREN STOLEN BY FRANCOISM, are about 30,000 children who were mentored by the Franco Regime during the immediate postwar period, because their parents had died or because they were imprisoned for belonging to the Republican side. To these were added those from the large operation for the repatriation of minors ordered by Franco, from whom they had been evacuated by their parents during the war (especially those sent to the Soviet Union) for whose recovery (or kidnapping, according to versions) clandestine operations were organized in foreign territory. But it was not until 2008, that the well-known judge Baltasar Garzón (later disqualified) changed the consideration of that operation of the Franco Regime to that of "not prescribed crime of illegal detention, with forced disappearance of people and abduction of minors from their parents ”Declaring it a crime against Humanity and urging the persecution and conviction of those responsible who, by the way, had already died in their entirety.
Around the decade of the 80s, already in the midst of Democracy, the phenomenon of STOLEN CHILDREN IN MATERNITY CLINICS developed. The phenomenon was widespread throughout the country, but the most famous case has been that of Dr. Eduardo Vela and Sister María Florencia Gómez Valbuena, gynecologist and religious of the order of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent Paul respectively. The collusion of public entities with the accused was always evident. For more than 15 years, Sor María had been accused on several occasions for the same crime, but it was not until early 2012 when a date was set for a trial that was not held, due to a death certificate that declared her deceased. Although many suspicions were raised when it was revealed that this certificate contained documentary falsehoods, it is very demonstrative that it was not even ordered to check if there was any corpse inside his grave. However, it was even more outrageous than the sentence that convicted Dr. Vela in October 2018, but acquitted him because his crime had prescribed. The associations of affected people such as add, number between 200,000 and 300,000 children stolen by this mechanism in the second half of the 20th century in Spain. I mean
Since then, and with the slightest suspicion, the increased availability of DNA tests for paternity tests easily exposed this type of child abduction, and its frequency was drastically reduced. But the abductions did not stop, because his disappearance gave way to a new form of "child theft" that could be carried out within the current legislation.
The Organic Law for the Legal Protection of Minors in 1996 greatly facilitated the legal removal of children from their parents by declaring the child in distress, the withdrawal of guardianship of the biological family and its attribution to Social Services on behalf of the State. The procedure was simplified, which is now carried out through a simple administrative resolution, issued by an official without judicial intervention.
This initiative was almost simultaneous throughout the European Union and was accompanied by a huge economic endowment, typical of the compassionate policies of rich countries that sought to present themselves as "socially advanced". From there, the declarations of helplessness multiplied exponentially. A large number of companies that operated under the format of foundations and NGOs, arranged their services with the Administration to attend to the care and education of that enormous number of children. Thus, a great business emerged in which only the chosen ones had the option for their “host companies” to get a slice of that cake.
If we assess the catastrophic results obtained with these children by the State, in terms of academic levels and social-labor integration upon reaching the age of majority (both in public and concerted centers) we can affirm that it has been a millionaire business for some, but a public money very badly used for the desired objective (to protect and educate) of which, curiously, the State has never bothered to ask for accounts.
Disguising the right to privacy and honor of the minor, that State Law also dealt with censoring all information about minors. This obscurantism reached its maximum expression in Spain after the prostitution case of foreign conservators (now called MENAS) at the Bar Arnie in Seville. After the emblematic case of the "Girls of Alcasser", this once again filled the front pages of the newspapers, but this time the lists full of names and surnames of famous and powerful people accused in those pedophile affairs were reflected. The cancellation of all the testimonies of the prostituted minors led to the collective acquittal of the accused, except for the Marqués de Sotohermoso (who pleaded guilty on his own initiative and still did not step in jail) and those of the owner and manager of the premises.
Since then, all the information on the frequent cases of sexual perversion with minors in custody have been censored and blocked, as well as the journalists who dared to disclose them have been discredited and persecuted. The cases of the television presenter Pepe Navarro (from “We crossed the Mississippi”) for the “Case Alcaser” or the journalist Josele Sánchez (The Tribune of Spain) for the one of “Bar Spain” serve as an example.
Because among those cases, it is worth noting the CASO BAR ESPAÑA, with more than 80 supervised children victims of rape and at least 6 infanticides, which involves such important figures in contemporary Spanish politics as a President of the Deputation of Castellón (Fabra) a President of the Valencian Autonomous Community (Camps) or a President of the Milan Soccer Club (Giuseppe Farina) and who has never been seriously investigated.
Only now, after years of work by many independent activists to overcome the information blockade, the mainstream media have wanted to echo one of those issues that have been occurring throughout this time, such as the massive prostitution of women. teenagers supervised by the State in places like Mallorca or La Rioja.
The phenomenon of child abduction, whether stolen or protected, always had a major impact on the poorest and most discriminated social strata, which in turn are the ones that maintain the highest reproductive rates. In the post-war era, there were many children because of the “Baby-boom”, so child trafficking represented a problem of violation of Human Rights at the individual level. However, when the current stage of the “Guardianships” began, we were already in the middle of the “Era of Well-being” and the collapse of the birth rate had already become a state problem. That change from “stealing” them to “guardianship” represented a notable increase in the total number of children abducted in the poorest social strata, therefore, the level of harassment of the “quarries” of birth in our country.

¿POR QUE NO QUIEREN INVESTIGAR LOS ABUSOS SEXUALES A MENORES?¿DONDE ESTA LA TRANSPARENCIA?LA UNICA RAZON PARA NO INVESTIGAR ES QUE USTEDES SON LOS CULPABLES.
Los medios de comunicación Españoles están comprados por los políticos por eso la censura de toda la corrupción, el abuso, maltrato, la prostitución de los niños tutelados.
Los niños tutelados por el Estado Español con declaraciones de desamparo con informes falsos manipulados, tergiversados y con ocultismo se encuentran desprotegidos y sin derechos gracias a los partidos democratas que no investigan por el bienestar del menor.
Estos niños son victimas cuando les separan del seno familiar, victimas porque les robas su infancia, victimas porque les anulan como personas y continuan siendo victimas de los educadores, directores de centros de acogida, y del maltrato institucional. ¿Quien les defiende?
WHY DON'T YOU WANT TO INVESTIGATE CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE? WHERE'S THE TRANSPARENCY? THE ONLY REASON NOT TO INVESTIGATE IS THAT YOU'RE THE GUILTY ONES.
The Spanish press is bought by the politicians, that's why they censor all the corruption, the abuse, the mistreatment, the prostitution of the children in their care.
The children under guardianship of the Spanish State with declarations of helplessness with false reports manipulated, distorted and with occultism are unprotected and without rights thanks to the democratic parties that do not investigate for the well-being of the minor.
These children are victims when they are separated from their families, victims because their childhood is stolen, victims because they are annulled as persons and continue to be victims of educators, directors of shelters, and institutional abuse. Who defends them?
PSOE, Més and UNIDOS PODEMOS vote against the creation of an investigation commission. Two girls under the guardianship of the Consell de Malloca have suffered sexual exploitation.
The scandal of the abuse of minors under the guardianship of the Administration in the Balearic Islands is increasing, and in spite of this, the parties of the left (PSOE, Més and Podemos) that govern the Community have prevented with their vote the creation of a commission of investigation in the Parliament.
Last Saturday it became known that the National Police had arrested four men, all with criminal records, for corruption of minors and crimes against public health, on the suspicion that they might have drugged and sexually abused minors with whom they made contact in various parks in Mallorca. It has now been revealed that two of these minors were under the guardianship of the Consell de Mallorca and this has been acknowledged by the Councillor for Welfare and Family of Mallorca, Bárbara Torrent. The Councillor wanted to send a message of reassurance that the Island Family Service has always acted "with the utmost diligence". "Whenever we have had indications of an event that could be criminal we have denounced it, because we consider that it is our obligation and responsibility," she said.
Shortly after the case of Mallorca, the Parliament has rejected this afternoon the creation of a commission requested by Citizens and Vox on cases of minors under guardianship sexually exploited in Mallorca.
They were two proposals with the same purpose that were debated and voted on separately and that, in the end, were not carried out because of the votes against by the entire left, PSOE, Més and Unidas Podemos. As an alternative proposal, the parties of the left have devised the creation of a commission of experts to analyse the conflict of the abuse of minors under guardianship and to propose solutions. At the moment, it is not known who the experts will be, what their duties will be or when they will present their report. PPy Ciudadanos do not reject the commission of experts but insist that now the most urgent thing is the commission of investigation.
Citizens have stated that in Mallorca at least 16 minors under the guardianship of the public administration have been subject to sexual abuse, so the obligation of politicians and the Parliament was to investigate and analyse what has happened so that it never happens again.
In view of the refusal of the left-wing parties, Citizens will officially request the reproval of the President of the Balearic Islands, the Socialist Francina Armengol, and has requested the resignation of the Councillor for Social Affairs, Fina Santiago, and the Managing Director of the Fundació S'Estell, Fina Tur, reports Efe.
Vox deputy Idoia Riba has called it "shameful" that the "hypocritical left" does not want to know what has happened and what has "failed" in the "aggression" against these "defenseless children".
IS IT TRUE OR FALSE THAT CHILDREN UNDER GUARDIANSHIP IN SPAIN ARE A BUSINESS FOR THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION? IT'S TRUE
ES VERDADERO O FALSO QUE LOS NIÑOS TUTELADOS EN ESPAÑA SON UN NEGOCIO PARA LAS ADMINISTRACIONES PÚBLICAS? ES VERDADERO
Mireia Borras la diputada de Vox ha denunciado recientemente en el congreso que en España hay 50.000 niños tutelados injustamente. Lo cual afirma toda la información recogida desde España durante toda esta semana. La Asociación Nacional del Menor Gitano, La Asociación intercultural unión y respeto, Asociaciones de Palma de Mallorca, Los niños son intocables, José Maldonado, Antonia Moreno, los activistas el Dr Juan Mariano Pérez Abad, Toni Estela Frau, Familias afectadas así como muchas otras asociaciones y personas que llevan denunciando por años la corrupción de abuso de tutelas con informes falsos, manipulados, tergiversados y con ocultismo dicen la verdad.
Los niños son retirados del seno familiar con falsas declaraciones de desamparo y llevados a centros de acogida para después ser maltratados, abusados y prostituidos.
Desde Miami lucharemos con todas esas familias hasta que esos niños tutelados vuelvan a sus casas y los culpables vayan a la cárcel.
IS IT TRUE OR FALSE THAT CHILDREN UNDER GUARDIANSHIP IN SPAIN ARE A BUSINESS FOR THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONS? IS IT TRUE
Mireia Borras, the deputy of Vox, recently denounced in Congress that in Spain there are 50,000 children unjustly protected. This affirms all the information gathered from Spain during this week. La Asociación Nacional del Menor Gitano, La Asociación intercultural unión y respeto, Los niños son intocables José Maldonado, Antonia Moreno, the activists Dr Juan Mariano Pérez Abad, Toni Estela Frau, affected families as well as many other associations and people who have been denouncing for years the corruption of guardianship abuse with false reports, manipulated, distorted and with occultism tell the truth.
Children are taken from their families with false statements of helplessness and taken to shelters and then mistreated, abused and prostituted.
This is Mireia Borras' intervention at the congress
Thank you, Madam President. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen; I am addressing you once again to raise an issue that requires our utmost attention. There are currently almost 50,000 children in care in Spain, most of whom live in privately run centres. The first cases of sexual abuse of minors in custody were detected in 2010 and 5 years later the technicians warned of an alarming increase in these abuses and the media did not take action and neither did those responsible show the slightest urgency in tackling this situation, because it was an open secret, but only now that it is a media scandal and unstoppable you have decided to start acting. Both the PP and the PSOE addressed draft laws in this area at the time and they are still being kept in a drawer, as a result of the events that citizens are presenting to us today in their PNS, in a series of measures for the protection of minors in custody, which, however, leave aside the great forgotten ones and the basis for the well-being of any child, his or her family, and we advocate that the family is a fundamental pillar in society, and also a fundamental pillar in any child's environment.
We already know that this government does not think the same as with its communist social policy, it defends without any concealment that children do not belong to their parents, and therefore it is the state that receives what is best for them. Well, if we already oppose the interference of the state in the education of our children, it is even more so after the incompetence of the system for the protection of minors under its guardianship has been proven. In vox we advocate for the welfare of children, which consists of offering support that is necessary for families to avoid reaching the extreme of separation, also the committee rights of the child recognizes that the best thing for the child is to be in the first term with their parents and if not with the rest of the family. So that helplessness is always the last one, that is why we are going to ask you for several amendments up to the np. Firstly, the Prosecutor should intervene in a more recurrent way in his inspections, guaranteeing the fulfilment of the rights of all the intervening parties and acting quickly in cases where the minors have been taken away from their families. We also consider that the suspension of the parental authority outside the judicial system must be corrected. A decision of this importance must correspond to a judge and we want to clarify the cases of abuse of minors in Mallorca, Once again, the system of autonomous regions of the Canary Islands or the Basque Country shows its ineffectiveness and generates victims who suffer situations of greater or lesser protection depending on the territory. Furthermore, to avoid this, we propose the creation of a high State inspection for the welfare of minors under guardianship, which would watch over their welfare in any autonomous region.
Although the left, far from being self-critical, has been used to construct its ideological story and divide society, the reality is that four of the five educators expelled from the Balearic Islands for inappropriate sexual behaviour with minors in their care were women. Have you and the socialist group considered the responsibility of those who are blocking the commissions of investigation into this plot of prostitution of minors, who are the ones who occupy the child protection portfolios? We urge the government to urgently develop a law for the protection of children and adolescents, strengthening the position of the Public Prosecutor's Office with the ultimate aim of allowing the minor under guardianship to return to his family whenever possible. What do you think if instead of putting obstacles to the family unit we take measures to protect and help it? From Vox we work for the Spanish, which is why we are here and to demand responsibility for any irregular or irresponsible act, especially if there are minors involved.
From Miami we will fight with all these families until these children return home and the guilty go to jail.
LOS NIÑOS TUTELADOS EL NEGOCIO REDONDO CUANDO MAS NIÑOS MAS DINERO
CHILDREN UNDER GUARDIANSHIP THE PERFECT BUSINESS WHEN MORE CHILDREN MORE MONEY
I am Antonia Moreno and I want to make people aware that in Spain the social services are taking children away from their families with false reports, manipulated, distorted and hidden. The only conclusion is that the public administrations need to fill the shelters because if there are no children within those shelters they don't receive any subsidy from Europe from the Feder funds. Once the children are removed from the families the public administration receives a payment of 68,000 euros per child plus a monthly fee of 4000 to 9000 euros depending on the child, if that child takes any medication, if he or she has any illness or disability. This is happening all over Spain and especially with very vulnerable families. When more children withdraw more subsidies they will receive and until there is a control we will not be able to stop this.
