(CNSNews.com) - The Pro-life Alliance of Gays and Lesbians (PLAGAL) is applauding a Maine lawmaker for introducing a bill that would prohibit the abortion of unborn homosexual babies.
"We recognize that at this time the gay gene has not been isolated, but with all the advances of genetics, we believe that it may just be a matter of time" before a test for the predisposition of homosexuality will be developed, said Jackie Malone, executive vice president of PLAGAL, in a press release.
PLAGAL hailed Maine State Rep. Brian Duprey, a Republican, for his solid support of pro-life legislation and said it is glad he will continue his fight for the unborn, even in the case of sexual orientation.
"PLAGAL would like to point out that "gay rights" has nothing to do with so-called "abortion rights," the group said in a press release. "Gay, straight, male, female, or physically challenged -- all are human beings that deserve every chance for life."
Abortion is a way to get rid of real human beings who are threatening or undesirable, said Cecilia Brown, president of PLAGAL. "Children are routinely aborted now because of gender or disability, so it is not inconceivable to see people aborting because of a possible gay gene," she added.

They can tell their gay before they're born?/sarcasm
Government imposed forced pregencies for rape victims?
How does one know a baby in a womb is gay? We determined over 10 years ago there are no genes that cause homosexualty.
Science means nothing to fanatics. They will always see a gay gene in the future.
What a war to watch....abortion rights advocates vs. the sodomites!!! Let's step back and hope they kill each other off.
Well .. it will be interesting to hear how the Libs will demand the right to abort gay babies
Actually, there are quite a few gay Genes. I know one myself.
So it's only ok to kill normal babies?
This always struck me as an interesting one. Some gays seem to be on a quest for the Gay Gene to prove that they are like they are as a result of nature and not of choice, and that they cannot thus be condemned for their actions. Ignoring the non seq nature of this argument, they seem late in realizing the obvious conclusion ie. that if a Gay Gene is found, 'pro-choice' liberals will get to test their real commitment to gay rights when it comes to screening their own unborns, and I suspect that many, many gays will be aborted. There's some irony to this, I think.
"gene" means genetic, homosexuality by is own cannot reproduce therefore, it cannot be genetic - therefore, you cannot be born gay.
Means there are no genes that make you that way becuase they cannot reproduce.
So this Duprety guy has a history of pro-life work?
In cases such as this, it is nearly impossible to prove a negative. No one has found the 'gay gene', but liberals insist there is one based mostly on their feelings.
Let's pass a law... "just in case." Bad attitude for ANY issue.
This is a joke, right? ...
... right?...
Hmmm... seems to me they already are - this would just speed it up.
That's exactly, 100% the point of the proposal.
I think he is really just trying to spin up liberals. Which way to go, support the right of the mother to abort or protect gays against genocide. Either way, a part of their base is ticked off. Since conservatives don't tend to believe in the gay gene theory, it's a no brainer to support the pro-life position.
First no abortion for Gay babies. Next we can't discriminate, so no abortions for Black or brown babies. But wait, that's racial profiling, so NO abortions PERIOD!!
