	Texas legislature set to pass law that takes children away from loving parents Full PM-box? Change here!

http://beta.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...ys_050420173703

quote: The Texas House of Representatives passed a bill banning homosexuals, bisexuals and transsexuals from being foster parents. If the bill gains approval from the Texas Senate, the state will be allowed to investigate the backgrounds of current foster parents and remove children living in non-heterosexual households. All future foster parents will be required to disclose their sexual preference on an application form, a legislative aide said. The move was denounced by local activists. "More than 43,000 gay and lesbian couples in Texas are forming families and raising children, and this attack on LBGT (lesbian, bisexual, gay and transgendered) Texans will tear apart our families and remove our children from loving, stable families," the Lesbian/Gay Rights Lobby of Texas said in a statement. "In an already over-burdened foster care system, the effect of reducing the pool of foster parents does nothing to protect Texas children," it added.

This is absolutely disgusting and I am even more ashamed that Texas is part of the US now.

We all know gay couples only want to adopt children so they can molest them.

By the way, to be consistent, I assume you guys want all of the countries in Red, where homosexuality is illegal, nuked?



Particularly in the countries where homosexuality is punishable by death.


Now while in some cases, such as Virginia, you'd be making a clear improvement by nuking it, but otherwise you'd be killing a lot of people.

A tactical nuclear strike would probably be an improvement, especially for Houston.

Well technically it isn't, but that won't stop the rednecks in Great Falls and Alexandria from dispensing some old fashion southern justice.

Yeah, my ex-girlfriend from a few years back was from Houston and she kept trying to get me to move there with her. I went to visit the city with her and decided there was no way in hell I was moving to Houston.

Yes, yes it is, you could spend a year in jail for being gay there. Better add it to the nuke list.

Hmm...might there be a right to privacy issue here? Where does the state get off requiring you to disclose your sexual orientation? That's none of the state's damn business.

Meh. It's come to the poinr where I'd be willing to be a friggin' suicide bomber in order to nuke Texas. Oh, Alabama too. Hell, let's nuke the entire South and Bible Belt. Actually, all the Red States.

Nah, let's nuke America to get it over with.

From the looks of that map it seems there's a certain "hate latitudes" running from about the equator to 35 degrees north.

No. Its not your legal right to be a foster parent.

No you have to do it all at once. That way no one smart can step forward and tell the world about the horrible atrocities being commited. So long as all of thier voices are silenced in one fell swoop the world will think we are doing them a favor.
