Some folks should not reproduce

I found this article at The Smoking Gun website

Girl Eats Pop's Pot Brownies
Wisconsin man faces drug charge after five-year-old sickened

OCTOBER 11--Meet Luke Schoepke. The Wisconsin nitwit is facing a felony drug rap after his five-year-old daughter got ill from eating brownies that he allegedly laced with marijuana. Schoepke, 24, has been charged with pot possession and obstructing a police officer, a misdemeanor, according to the below Circuit Court criminal complaint. Cops reported that the child was brought to a Waukesha hospital emergency room by the girl's grandmother, who noted that the child was lethargic and had an unusually large appetite. The girl told her grandmother that she had "eaten some brownies at the residence of her father," who had dropped the child off at the woman's home prior to attending a concert. A field test of the leftover brownies confirmed they contained pot. When confronted by cops, a "very nervous and agitated" Schoepke denied any connection to the brownies. However, an arresting officer noted that he detected "the very faint odor of fresh marijuana" on Schoepke. Not to mention that Schoepke had a baggie of pot in his jacket pocket. If convicted of the drug charge, Schoepke faces a maximum of three and a half years in prison.


Some people should NOT reproduce! What in sam hell was this guy thinking?? Don't get me wrong. I'm not ANTI-pot. I've done it in the past and I don't really see anything wrong with it. My problem is not with a pot-smoker/eater. My problem is that this guy is the father of a 5-year-old child!! How many 5-year-olds do YOU know that aren't going to be all up in them brownies when he/she sees them? It was stupid of him to be baking the pot in those brownies and then leaving them sit out for that little girl to eat! He shouldn't get busted on drug charges, he should be busted for reckless endangerment of a child and just general stupidity!
What an idiot.

Calling him an idiot is putting it mildly. People like that make me just want to smack them in the head. You want to get stoned? Fine, spark up the doobie but for crying out loud keep the crap out of the goodies.
