Of course that would depend on the people and the difference.

When gay marriage lost in California the first time it lost because blacks and Hispanics overwhelmingly voted against it. Neither group is generally considered "evangelical".

Do you hate blacks and Hispanics also?

You know that bigotry isn't necessarily a bad thing? The definition of bigotry is having a set belief you aren't willing to change.

Would you say that might define your viewpoints here?

As a very reliable right wing supporter and conservative, I think this judge was wrong. If the home was safe, the child was being taken care of, and the foster parents are willing to care for the child, there is no reason to remove the child. Really, the foster system desperately needs more foster parents and if this gay couple can provide a safe home, then they should be allowed to do so.

It doesn't matter, the couple is legally married, they are qualified foster parents and now this baby girl will get to grow up without a father.

The governor and the head of the department of children think the judge is off base, and I would assume that at least one of them has access to the records regarding the child.
