Voltaire — To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize

The black foster child who became a media darling and received 10,000 offers for a new home is back in foster care after a family kicked him out
In fact, efforts with four families went sour, and 16-year-old Davion Only has shut down lines of communication — no media events, no Facebook messages, no meetings with his adviser. "I'm extremely worried about him," his adviser said. "We had a short conversation a couple of weeks ago, but it was very unsettling." So what happened? Things seemed positive in March 2014 when a minister and his wife flew Davion up to Ohio, signed him up for football, and took him to church. "I got baptized!" Davion wrote on Facebook. But during the 90-day trial period, "there was an incident in Ohio," said Lorita Shirley, director of his foster care agency. Davion apparently had a physical altercation with the father and another child in the house, and the family wanted him gone. This was after three other placements failed to gel, including one with a foster family where Davion said he "had a blowout."
