| Message | This is slight improvement, but it is still a preposterous law, homosexuals must not be allowed to adopt children. It takes away the child's right to protection from cruel or unusual treatment. |

| Message | We agree with the TCP - this proposal is an improvement, but we do not believe that, under no circumstances, should homosexuals be allowed to adopt children. This denies the adopted child in question the means for a healthy, normal, and wholesome upbringing, and condemns them to a life of endless bullying, name-calling, social exclusion, and perhaps even homosexuality. |
