7,000 Virginia children await adoption. Del. Dick Black and Del. Bob Marshall, because they’re egregiously anti-family, think that it’s better for these thousands of children to be shuffled around between abusive foster homes than be adopted by anybody who has ever lingered a little too long while hugging somebody of the same sex.
The American Psychological Association doesn’t know what the problem is:
In summary, there is no evidence to suggest that lesbians and gay men are unfit to be parents or that psychosocial development among children of gay men or lesbians is compromised in any respect relative to that among offspring of heterosexual parents. Not a single study has found children of gay or lesbian parents to be disadvantaged in any significant respect relative to children of heterosexual parents. Indeed, the evidence to date suggests that home environments provided by gay and lesbian parents are as likely as those provided by heterosexual parents to support and enable children’s psychosocial growth.
Republicans better act quick — I hear that, through a loophole, black folks can adopt white babies! To harvest their organs, I suspect.
