Hot adoption mess in Georgia

With all else going on, let's not forget how the anti-gay industry tries to hinder us from starting families and protecting our families.

I ran across this situation in Georgia and if it is true, we need to raise some holy hell:

Georgia judge halts lesbian adoptionWilkinson County jurist orders child taken from home, put in foster care

Days away from her seventh birthday, a little girl named Emma Rose is currently trapped in Georgia’s foster care system, unable to reunite with the woman who has been her mother for almost a year — all because the mother is a lesbian.

The prospective adoptive mother, Elizabeth Hadaway, was also sentenced to 10 days in jail earlier this month by a Wilkinson County Superior Court judge who refused to grant the adoption in part because “the child will have a long-term exposure to the homosexual parent’s lifestyle.”

It's relatively easy for the anti-gay industry to make our lives a living hell if they are helped by those who are supposed to protect our interests.
