I don’t think it is one thing. It’s a lot of things. Mostly it’s the hippie generation cracking down on a different hippie generation.
Everything put together in the multiple articles presented on this thread doesn’t show me one good reason for the authorities to defy the Kentucky constitution and kidnap the kids.
They don’t look like hippies to me at all. To that point; with all of the meth labs and meth addicted backwoods families in KY they go after this family who appear to be healthy and happy.
