Florida Gay Adoption Ban Is Ruled Unconstitutional

In a giant victory of compassion and common sense over homophobia and prejudice, judge Cindy S. Lederman of Miami-Dade Circuit Court has ruled Florida’s total ban on homosexual adoptions unconstitutional and clearly not in the best interests of the childen of the state.

Here’s the NYT coverage of the story.

And a story about a local Punta Gorda gay couple and their fight to adopt.

The ruling has already been appealed, but this is twice the courts have ruled the ban unconstitutional.  The tide is shifting.  Take that, Anita!
