You have GOT to be kidding me. How sick and twisted is this? This is pro-family?? To remove children from one of his/her BIOLOGICAL parents because that parent is MARRIED? That's grounds for taking a child away from his/her parent?? Gay rights aside, this right here just makes my blood boil. “Allen disagreed, saying that the state regularly removes children from a biological parent when that parent is living with another adult and they are not married.”
