31. Saying that all gays are not fit parents is a load of crap. Hate to break to you ignorant bigots but most gays are RAISED BY STRAIGHT PARENTS. Your sexual orientation has NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR ABILITY TO RAISE A CHILD. It's just your excuse to waste your pathetic life making other people feel bad about themselves so you can feel superior. So sad.

34. Ahhhh isn't it refreshing to read such hate? Doesn't it give you a warm fuzzy feeling about the people in the good old USA. How Christ-like they are. Myself, I'm not into hate, having said that, if you hate filled people insist on it, why not funnel it into a place more deserving. The Bush administration that is responsible for 2,789 dead troops and 20,468 crippled. Now that's a place you might dump some of your vile, ugly hate.

35. Sandy, I totally agree. Start with the REAL problems, and save your hate and bigotry.

36. Yeah, I agree with comment no. 2. We don't need all these gay freaks running around. They are sick, perverted, and not to mention just looking at them and the way they act, is enought to make you want to throw them all in the ocean. We need people like Buju Banton to come sing a song about them! Also, comment no. 14. Yeah, I see the sorry state our planet is in. It will get even worse if the gays multiply.

37. To no. 21 22 etc. To all you gay people or people who support gays...F*** you all. Go suck a big one. I am an alien from Hell. Do you want an evil spirit to come and possess you. Do you want me to come on Holloween and make you possessed. That is what will happen if you dont behave and if you don't stop being gay.

41. #30.....said:same sex couples cannot create a child. What does that tell you.

Posted at 1:35PM on Oct 21st 2006 by alice


My reply:

There are also millions of couples that are NOT the same sex, that can't for whatever reasons medically, create a child.

So they turn to, science to help them or they adopt.

Also, to the other ignorants, JUST because you believe that ONLY and MAN and a WOMAN should raise a child, I will say this: Being an RN for many years, I have seen abused, neglected children raised in those "normal" homes...

More power to ANYONE who wishes to have a child, who will raise them with love.

42. I think it's nice that there are people who are able to celebrate the birth of their children. When yours are taken away (the schoolhouse disaster in Amish country, 9/11, ice skating rink disaster, school shootings) it makes you appreciate life so much more. We all (me included) need to spend less time judging others and live our lives being happy. As we saw from those 5 girls in PA, LIFE IS TOO SHORT!!

43. I think you all should spend your time learning correct English, grammar, spelling and punctuation. Forget about the other things until you learn to express yourself, IN AMERICA, in proper English.

44. WHO REALLY CARES? I HOPE THEY'RE HAPPY BUT BIG DEAL....WHY MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING THAT HAPPENS EVERYDAY IN AMERICA?

45. It is totally selfish for a gay couple to adopt or have children!!!!! Do these people not think of how it will affect the children?! I have 3 girls and if I were gay and had had them with another woman they would be embarressed and ashamed of their total lives! You people that are so liberal and so accepting of this life style are just ignorant! They totally WRONG for doing that to children!
