Florida has a band on gay adoption. Please DU this poll
http://www.pbs.org/now/

It is so frigging sad that some people would rather a child grow up with no family that one that will love them but are of the wrong orientation.

3. How is that law enforced?
Do the social workersdo an investigation to see if someone is gay?

19. It wouldn't work.
My wife works for the agency that handles it. And at least 50% of them are openly gay. Great bunch of dedicated, overworked, underpaid people.
