[CA Conservative]

Alabama has a very conservative Supreme Court - 8 Republicans and one Independent, I think. The Chief Justice is the one who wrote the opinion that a lesbian mother who moved to California with her lover could not have custody of her daughter, citing the lesbian relationship as the primary reason.

Excerpt from an article regarding the case I referenced:

(WASHINGTON) The nation’s leading gay and lesbian partisan political organizations united today to condemn the recent legal opinion by Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore in a state custody case, where Moore called homosexuality a "detestable and an abominable sin...a crime in Alabama, a crime against nature, an inherent evil," and ordered three teenaged children to be kept in abusive custody of the biological father instead of the children’s mother, solely because she is a lesbian.
