'Gay' adoption battle heats up in Florida

The battle by homosexuals to legally adopt children has opened on another front in Florida.

Democratic State Senator Nan Rich, co-chair of the Senate Children, Families and Elder Affairs Committee, has filed a bill to repeal the 1977 law that bans homosexual adoption and a second bill to give judges the authority to determine adoptions based exclusively on what she calls the best interests the children. Matt Barber of Liberty Counsel disagrees with the measures.

"The actions here by Senator Nan Rich are clearly without merit, and she has the audacity to say that she is considering what is in the best interest of children. Well that defies logic, reason, and science," he contends. "Frankly the studies have shown clearly that it is in the best interest of children to have a mother and a father."

Barber believes he has discovered the Rich's true intentions. "What she and her homosexual activist supporters are considering is what is in the best interest of homosexual activists," he adds. "They are more concerned with their own selfish desires because they want to adopt children."

Liberty Counsel has a role in a case winding through the courts that would overturn the law.

I read your post and you seem ligit aside from the fact you're misguided about perverted family issues. You will not last long around here pushing homosexual family values.
Welcome to FR.

Wow the viking kitties were fast there. (must be samuri viking kitties)

Seriously, the rank and file lawyers of the FL Bar are furious over this sneaky manuver. Essentially even the hard left lawyers agree the family law sections homosexual activists are lying completly because they want to imply the Florida Bar in its entirety is backing this pro-homosexual brieft the family law section is submitting.

seriously folks if you want to do something sent emails to the FL supreme court saying the Florida Bar needs to KEEP OUT OF THIS CONTROVERSY.

Those florida bar lawyers are just hijacking the Florida Bar’s name.

Such great intellect you must have......must be something special in the water in.....Ohio?.....that leads you to think you know ANYTHING about someone else based on the State they live in.

So, just to be clear, a 4 y.o. child would be better off continuing to live in a horrific Russian orphanage full of disease and malnutrition...then getting kicked into the streets at 14 years old, if they haven’t ran for the streets already.......than to live in a upper-class (as in...making well over $500K per year) house in the United States that happens to have 2 homosexuals in it. The 4 y.o. malnurished kid came with 4 diseases.......and all his brown teeth were immediately taken out because they were all rotted and weak due to a lack of calcium.

You going on record that he would’ve been better in those circumstances in Russia? Riddled with disease, malnutrition, and destined for a life on the streets because heterosexual couples simply are not adopting them?

REALLY?

You going on record to say we should throw kids to the wolves I addressed in previous posts on this thread just because the two rich perverts you mention set the standard for homo adoption?

No matter what you think, that kid will have a better life with 2 gay doctors as parents in the United States..........than to stay in the disease riddled and malnurishment orphanage in Russia and then get kicked into the streets at 14....and they now have OMG another kid through a surrogate mother. THE HORROR!!!!!

It is horrible. Every kid deserves a mom and a dad. It's sad that homosexuals feel that the need to purchase orphans to make themselves feel "fulfilled" somehow trumps an innocent child's right to grow up in a normal family.

And worse, to willfully bring a child into this world without a mom and dad is groteque and immoral. All parties involved, the two homosexuals, and the mother who sells her child, are reprehensible.

There are worse things in life than physical poverty. Moral and spiritual poverty, for instance.

I’ll go on record to say that a kid in a Russian orphanage is better off in a rich house in the United States with 2 hoomosexuals......just as I’ve stated.

Heh - My, my. You do bandy the trashy hyperbole around with little restraint, don't you?
Benn to Russia much? No?
But yet, you do present your posits as factual.

You are simply regurgitating nonsense and presenting it as a priori fact, much like any liberal MSM NYT editorial columnist might in pursuit of their agenda for change.

Your use of such descriptive terms, especially to defend, if not promote, a lifestyle that is nothing short of cultural suicide via a deviant perversion, is demeaning to our intellect.

Begone.

What you say MIGHT be true except for one FACT:

There are more than enough heterosexual, married couples in America and Europe who are willing and financially able to adopt these children.

Less evil is still evil, nonetheless. Less bad is still bad, nonetheless.

We shouldn't support the lesser of two evils when it comes to children and social engineering. There are PLENTY of GOOD and even GREAT opportunities, at lest thus far, for children in this country. Why accept anything less for innocent children? DO they not have a right to be raised in a wholesome healthy environment? Suggesting those environments are not available is not true, and never has been.

This kid in Russia never had and never WOULD have a "mom and dad" he would've either died in the orphanage from a disease like MDRTb or died in the streets......nobody is adopting these kids........YOU gonna step up and adopt a few thousand?? ONE??? Step up and do YOUR PART.

So, a heterosexual couple that adopts isn't "purchasing" kids to feel "fulfilled"??

Easy to say when you’re not a 4yo in a Russian orphanage.

So you support taking an unfortunate child out of the frying pan, and placing him into the fire. Got it.

Revelation 20 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
