Yet another druggie wants to pretend their filthy habit is for "medical" reasons. Thank God there are still some states that have a moral compass and are willing to protect children from drugged up crack addicted felons. I don't even want to imagine what was going through her head while she was rubbing that filthy drug oil all over her body.

Desperate for an effective treatment, Banda began looking outside of traditional medicine. After watching a documentary about the benefits of cannabis oil, Banda said she started to make her own oil in her kitchen and would consume it around meals.
“Literally within days her Crohn’s was in full remission,” Swain said. And after several months of continued treatment, her health had improved so dramatically that “she considered herself cured from Crohn’s disease.”
“I’m not in my deathbed, I’m working for the first time in four years, I’m hiking, I’m swimming, I’m able to play with my kids, I’m able to do things -- I love it,” Banda said in the YouTube video.
Banda was public about her health crisis, as well as her use of medical marijuana, and detailed it all in a 2010 memoir, Live Free Or Die, which recounts her brutal battle with Crohn’s disease for years.
She also recorded a YouTube video the same year her book was published to help further spread her message about the medical benefits of cannabis.
“When you decide to take your life into your own hands and realize that you can do this with a $50 machine, a $5 spatula and a plant that you can grow for free in your backyard, you can do this -- and it’s awesome,” Banda says in the YouTube video. “This stuff is amazing, it’s miraculous.”
Inside Banda's home, police found a little more than 1 pound of marijuana, along with equipment Banda had been using to manufacture her cannabis oil in the kitchen. They also found various items related to ingesting marijuana throughout the house that tested positive for THC, the main psychoactive ingredient found in marijuana associated with the “high” sensation and well-known for its medicinal properties. The police also said that the items taken from the house were “within easy reach of the child.”
Banda’s son was immediately removed from her custody and placed into state custody, where he remains. He has been temporarily placed with Banda's husband, from whom she is separated.

My god, why not just shove illegal drugs right down the child's throat?
I'm thinking we should use this case as a precedent and also go after parents who have alcohol within reach of a child. That is to say, anywhere in their refrigerator without some sort of padlock. In fact, the police should regularly conduct surprise raids of homes in order to make certain that they don't have alcohol within reach of a child.
While I'm ordinarily in favor of small government, there are core functions of government that are just so essential that they justify this sort of spending, eg. conducting raids on homes to make sure they don't have drugs, spending the additional money to keep drug addicts like this mother locked up, spending extra money to take care of the child in an orphanage. While it is a tough sacrifice to make, it is far better than the alternative of allowing children to be corrupted by drug addicts.
