There are posters here who believe people who smoke pot deserve whatever pain and evil that comes into their lives, even if it means the loss of innocent loved ones. Exactly...all because nanny government has proclaimed it 'illegal'.
Speeding is 'illegal', too. I wonder how they would feel if parents had their kids taken away from them for doing 40 mph in a school zone?

Hill admits they were smoking pot when their daughter was asleep. I would be curious to know how the child welfare people came to know this.
In my experience it is usually a spiteful act on someones part. Anonymous tips to child welfare are often the initiating point of investigations in to neglectful parents.

...they were smoking pot when...
All the while, there is an admitted pot smoker squatting in public housing at 1600 Penn'a Ave, W DC.
It ain't so much whatcha do as who does it.

Foster care would be reserved for those few truly needy cases.
"Foster care" would then fall into disuse, fewer "foster care givers" Less control, less authority injected into the lives of th citizenry.
As the old adage goes, "If your only tool is a hammer, the whole world looks like a nail."

were told that the government will step up to backstop any bank losses and ensure depositors dont lose a single penny.Actually, from that story you can't tell one way or the other. Since it's unlikely that a child would be removed just because a parent toked while the child was asleep, at this point I'd guess that the father was perhaps not telling the full story.
Of course, it couldn't have been any worse than where they put her.
