JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A federal judge Thursday overturned Mississippi's ban on allowing same-sex couples to adopt children.

U.S. District Judge Daniel Jordan, in a preliminary injunction issued Thursday, ruled for the couples who had sued, saying the ban is unconstitutional after recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions legalizing gay marriage and benefits for gay couples. He ordered John Davis, executive director of the Department of Human Services to stop enforcing it.

What happened to “pro choice” ? Should not the birth mother have some say in who raises the child she gave birth to and carried in the womb for 9 months? She has “Right to kill” but not right to choose parents?

[Why the Hell do we even have states then?]

I’m not sure we have a country anymore. After the whores have sold us out to the WTO, and been trying to do so to any other “Worldxxxx” organization they can find.

Think Communist. Think Global.

When you lose, you have to accept whatever they impose upon you. Same as in 1865

“Federal judge overrules us.”

Negative.
The Federals rule Mississippi and have since 1865. The judge was just affirming that.

The ruling on marriage is an unconstitutional infringement on religion, as that is the source of marriage. States can make rules on who is eligible to adopt. We need a governor of a single state to stand up and tell the Fed to shove it. It is WAAAAAY past time to finish the fight for States rights. I am of the opinion that the Yanks will not have the stomach to fight a confederacy of states this time. Too much publicity, and the city folks are too pussified to fight anyway.

There's a sizable portion of Northerners who would be on the side of the South.

New York, Chicago, and California don't have the will to fight it.

Agreed. Nor should their appointment last more than 5 years.

No, it won’t end. The judiciary has done more to advance the cause of tyranny, aka, organized crime, socialism, and communism, then all branches combined. This ruling is nothing short of human trafficking and child abuse by perverts.

And that “fight” is the only way this organized crime, aka tyranny, will ever end. History has proven it a hundred times.

The judge might as well have said that Christianity is now illegal because of the “same-sex marriage” case.

That’s true...You know, I wonder why federal judges are appointed and state and local judges have to be elected???
Why not elect all of them??? Five years, as you say, would be a good term....

How abusive to raise a child in a homosexual household. It really is not relative that apparently many people are undisturbed by this. It’s still horrific child abuse!
