I wanna know why these dipsticks dont talk to actual children of gay parents, my partner and I have 3 from a previous marriage and if you were to ask them their life has been no different except they got the love,caring,nurturing without all the other crap that goes along with hetero marriages. How many marriages actually stick together these days?NOT MANY then the kids are tossed around, fought over told lies to and on and on the list goes anyways it just ticks me off lol.

I think it was Harvey Milk who said that a gay letter writer had new options: “Move to San Francisco…or stay [in Kentucky, Iowa, New Mexico, wherever] and FIGHT!” My hats are off to the LGBT folk in KY!

Why is anyone surprised? This IS Kentucky, after all! One does have to wonder where all these homeless children came from, since we are supposed to believe nothing but wonderful married male/female couples live in Kentucky! The solution is simple: Every supporter of this bill can step up and adopt one of these children. Presto: NO LONGER A PROBLEM!!!!! Line forms to the right (appropriately) folks!!!

Don asked: “Where in this story is the rebuttal in the Kentucky Senate to what Mr. Tapp spouted? ”

You must be joking. This is Kentucky. The senate’s primary business is God, guns and gays. Anything else is secondary.

Just what I thought. We have done nothing. All we do is bitch and complain. And that is going to kill us.

Where in this story is the rebuttal in the Kentucky Senate to what Mr. Tapp spouted? Surely there has to be someone in their Senate can speak to the complete ridiculousness of Mr. Tapp’s statements. What bother’s me most is how people can say crap like this and not be called into account, by their peers, for it. Yes thank God we have freedom of speech, but with that freedom must come accountability. In the future it would be nice if the news center would print what was said to refute these accusations. And, if nothing was said to refute it, then that should be noted also.

“Why, Christina, why?!”

Until all of those 1,878 children are adopted and there are no others left, KY should be happy that there are people, either single or LGBT, who are more than willing to take these kids in and provide them a loving and stable home. Just because there’s a mother and a father does NOT mean or guarantee that the home will be a loving and stable environment. I can understand that politicians and others want to avoid situations like the Octo-Mom (who’s single with 14 children and no money or a job, and soon no home), but if a person or couple can prove that they have the means and the resources to provide a stable home-life for a child then they should be able to do so.
