[on a Gallup poll which claims that 63% of Americans now support same-sex adoption]
If queers had tried to adopt me, even way back then, I would have killed them.

I was a badass toddler. When my dad said, "Where on the door does it say '[name redacted] come in' on the door?" I wrote exactly that on the door with a pencil.
I was also a HUGE geography nut.

Why do people like steve-chan have to be so full of hate?  He says that even if a gay couple cared enough to adopt a hypothetical child version of himself, he would kill them without remorse.
How could someone think that this is a moral way of thinking?  Ibuki doesn't know, but it makes her sad.
 
        
            
        
            
                
                @dionysus: But see, it's OK with God because "thou shall not kill" doesn't count with people of a different culture than you and the gay people would be part of the gay subculture, and "honour thy father and thy mother" doesn't apply to adoptive parents and doesn't count if it's two fathers or two mothers. The Ten Commandments are like the Three Laws of Robotics, you can get a lot of mileage out of the little loopholes. And I think "God told me to do it" is kinda the TC version of the Zeroth Law.
 
        
            
        
            
                
                So much for Christian basis for law and order in the society - Thou shalt not kill and Thou shalt honour thy mother and father.
Then again, 'Thou shalt not kill' has always had a large asterisk next to it, with the small print reading 'Conditions applied - applicable only to Christians and (maybe) Jews'.

                With what, the contents of your diaper? You are remarkibly stupid, are you not?
Of course, if you were an older adoptee, you could have done it the good, old American way, but then you would have been tried as an adult and, well, there's always the spike.
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                Thou shalt kill for jeebus!
And when you were done, you could kill entire towns just like your "book of morality" tells you to...
Kill the Entire Town if One Person Worships Another God
 
        
            
                
                And when you were done with that  you could kill all followers of all other religions just like your book of "morality" tells you to...
Kill Followers of Other Religions.
 
        
            
        
            
                
                Are you kidding? Gay men make awesome adoptive parents! Their disposible income is higher than the average hetero couple's, and their taste in home decor and fashion is unsurpassed. I would have killed for two doting gay dads, instead of the boring parents I was stuck with.
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                Were you raised by gay parents, I suspect you would have ended up a lot better adjusted then your comment suggests you are now, Steve.
Some day I'll have kids of my own, and it honestly depresses me that at some point they'll have to learn that people actually say these sorts of things about their dads.
 
        
            
                
                Oooo we got a internet badass over here! Everybody run! Yeah, I'm sure your adoptive parents would have felt very intimidated by the scared, ignorant little orphan whom they were adopting. Oliver Twist is the stuff of nightmares for gay couples, apareently.
