And all I could think when I was reading this story was how extraordinarily f*&ked up it is that, if you want to be a parent, you're better off being a gay male penguin in China than a gay male human in Arkansas.
I wonder what Governor Huckabee would have to say about all this.

live in a world of self loathing. They see the secret inside of themselves and hate themselves for it.

oh well, hate must have its way at all costs. tell these young shitheads to vote next time instead of smoking methCrack.
Some stuff you can't make up!
Tell the Truth.
This story should also poke holes in the idea that being gay is a choice, and that you can "pray away the gay". Most people believe that animals follow their basic nature: gay animals, which occur in small numbers in every species, should lead most people to believe that homosexuality does in fact occur naturally and does not lead to the downfall of that species.

Corruption favors the wealthy.
Most any parent is better than a Christian parent. Bringing a child up in religious based superstition and bigotry is nothing short of mental child abuse.
is also a bit much.
Some stuff you can't make up!
I suppose serial killers make slightly better parents.. Ironic your screen name has 'bigot' in it.
I said MOST any parent. When I start trying to pass law preventing Christians from getting married, trying to throw them out of the military or in some other way try to impose my belief system on them in a way the hampers their right to freedom and pursuit of happiness then I can be called a bigot. This is push back my friend, Learn the difference or forever be a milquetoast who has your rights and freedoms trampled on.
I understand the law is unintentionally affecting "good" Christian single people of the non-homo persuasion as well, because these ignorant fuckwits worded their hate bill so broadly so as to appear wholesome or some such rot.
You almost have to admire blinders that large. For their next trick, the state of Arkansas will send the entirety of their annual public education budget to the Vatican to support their Anti-U.N. position supporting prison, torture and death to homoseckshuls in other countries.
Oh, no they won't. The fundies hate the Pope nearly as much as they hate 'the gay'
"Arkansas voters on Tuesday approved all the ballot initiatives, including Act 1, which would prevent unmarried couples from adopting children or serve as their custodial parents."
So they hit both fronts.. those who choose not to marry and gay couples.
Its funny they overturned the Lottery scheme. Government monopoly on gambling. If the free market and individual liberty were respected, casino's could employ people, insure them and profit. Good for everybody. The lottery way is only good for lazy ass government workers that waste half of what they bring in. Gotta love government power.
I wonder how well that is going to help kids that need homes?
when i was a social worker working in foster care, one of our best families was a gay couple
those guys did everything for the kids
but there they go...trying to circumvent their hate with saying that unmarried couples cannot adopt...thing is, its still discrimination and most likely will not hold up in court
as for the penguins....what an amazing story
wonder how the wingnuts are gonna explain that one

China is too exotic for folks like the Huckabees. The country probably doesn't even register to these types except in instances where teh word "communist" comes up.
As for gay people, Huckabee's son would probably be thinking of new ways to kill and mutilate penguins since he likes to torture and kill dogs while on trips with the Boy Scouts in the name of Jesus.
Or maybe his son would just shoot them dead in the zoo since he was busted with an illegal firearm in the airport and all.
The apple rarely falls far from the tree.
Miller County, Arkansas) Two boy scout counselors, 17 year old Clayton Frady and 18 year old David Huckabee, the son of Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, have admitted to catching a stray dog during their summer session at Camp Pioneer in Hatfield, AR, and hanging the dog by his neck, slitting his throat and stoning him to death.

Totally ironic. What a world. I wonder how the religious right see this?
