To: a fool in paradise

The propaganda is being touted by Miami media like this:

“David and I are devoted to our children. We are a family in every way, except that Florida will not allow us to marry,” said Juan Carlos Rodriguez, of Davie. He and his partner, David Price, have been together for 17 years. “It pains David and me to be denied a basic safety net of legal protections.”

During the eight years she’s been with Melanie Alenier, partner Vanessa Alenier said the Hollywood couple has “worked so hard to build and protect our family, but nothing can come close to matching the protections that marriage provides. Our family is in need of those protections just like other families. We want our son to understand that his family is secure and just as respected as any other family part of our community here in Florida.”

Florida also prohibited homosexuals from adopting children until Crist decided to surrender and the FL Bar decided to endorse homosexuals adopting children (attorney bar dues used despite vocal objections)

Have they sought out legal counseling to establish a partnership?

They like the so-called "protections" of marriage, but got into a relationship where it cannot exist - two men cannot be husband and wife, nor can two women be husband and wife. What is it they expect? It isn't Florida not allowing them to be married - it is reality and language. These children also do not have a mother and a father.

“It pains David and me to be denied a basic safety net of legal protections.”

What a pant load. all it would take to get “a basic safety net of legal protections” is for them to march into any lawyer’s office and have each declared the other’s legal guardian with Powers of Attorney. Bada bing bada boom, finito. but it is not about that. It is all about destroying Christian culture.
