An airline captain I knew, with three kids, decided he was gay at about 40.
Does the state have the power to take away his kids?
If charges were brought against him in a state that did not permit gay parents. Of course, that would never happen in today's politically correct country. What if a parent decided to become a crack addict? Should the state just allow a small child to live with a crack addict?
But the thing is, with the crack addict, they can go to treatment and earn their kids back, most homosexuals won't seek help.
