Davis' activities as a deprogammer

This article fails to mention Davis' well documented activities as a deprogrammer. According to this article [[1]] he boasted publicly at a press conference of deprogramming more than 150 people who "resisted at first." Although Davis acted nobly as a civil rights leader in his earlier days, his actions against adult members of religions he didn't like were highly controversial. He also worked unsuccessfully to pass laws to make deprogramming legal. Both the American Civil Liberties Union and the National Council of Churches rightly denounced deprogramming as a serious violation of the right to religious liberty and freedom of association, not to mention being a crime tantamount to kidnapping since victims were abducted by force and held against their in an effort to coerce them to renounce their faith.
