Yesterday, Florida’s Second District Court of Appeals issued a ruling that gives parental rights to Lara Embry, a lesbian who adopted a child in Washington with her former partner, Kimberly Ryan. Ryan, the biological mother of the nine-year-old child, has left the homosexual lifestyle and is engaged to be married to a man. Liberty Counsel now represents Ryan in the case of Embry v. Ryan and plans to file an appeal at the Florida Supreme Court.
Florida law bans homosexuals from adopting for sound reasons so children can be permanently adopted by homes that provide for a mom and a dad. Homosexual adoption, by its very nature, deprives children of ever being reared by both a mother and a father because a homosexual home automatically excludes one gender, either the mom or the dad.
Most states ban homosexual adoption through legislation, regulation, or court precedent. Only a handful of states actually permit homosexual adoption.

George Washington would call you a Patriot!
