are you kidding me? so you think people should have to uproot their lives and go to another state in order to give a child who needs love, attention, and security a chance.

So basically youre saying screw the children in the foster care systems of Florida, Mississippi, and Utah - becuase we're going to cut their chances of being adopted. shouldn't children in all 50 states have an equal opportunity to be loved? It is a proven fact that gay/lesbian couples as opposed to heterosexual couples - want a child - their age, race, religion - matter less; they just want someone to nurture, love, care for - most (not all) heterosexual couples want a baby, one they can raise from infant status as their own.

personally i find the florida law ridiculous and i hope it gets over-ruled by the supreme court. the deciding factor should be what is best for the child - not the stance you take on gays/lesbians.
