Holier than Thou East o' the Mts

My friend from college, whom I'll call Nina, has been fostering (with the hope and expectations of adopting) a wee fellow since he was 5 weeks old. He is now a strapping 7 month old who looks like a bachelor farmer. The birth mother, or womb donor, wants him back. Miraculously, WD has done all she has been asked to do by the courts and it is looking like she might get him back.

A woman in Everett, who was higher than a kite, robbed a convenience store of 8 dollars. She held her hand in her pocket and said she had a gun. This was her third offence so she has gone to prison for the rest of her life. At a cost of some gagillion dollars a year to tax payers. I have no idea how much drug treatment would be, but I suspect we could have saved some money with that. Just a thought.

The womb donor has lost two other children to the state because of abuse of said children. But there is no three-strikes law when babies are concerned, only drug addicted women with a finger for a gun stealing 8 dollars.
