London Adds to Own Foster Care Woes
London Adds to Own Foster Care Woes
by RS Davis The Freedom Files  Hello Freedomphiles! A council in London has just declared that smokers can no longer be foster parents, citing dubious research about the "damaging effects of passive and second-hand smoke." Councilor Michael Stark explained, "We know this is a difficult issue because some people will feel it is an intrusion on personal freedoms. But we also know that smoking increases the risk of serious illness in childhood. On balance, we have decided children in our care shouldn't grow up breathing second-hand smoke." The council says that exceptions will be made for extraordinary circumstances. One would think that would include the fact that they are short 10,000 foster parents in London. More here. Explanation of the image here.

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. "Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. "I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
