Not a predictor of ability to parent
A Miami-Dade court has declared the Florida ban on adoption by gays to be unconstitutional. Of course, the state will appeal and there are a couple steps before they get to the state Supremes. The judge wrote, "It is clear that sexual orientation is not a predictor of a person's ability to parent." He threw out all of the government's arguments in favor of many studies of gays successfully raising kids, and noted it made no sense to allow gays to be foster parents yet not allow them to adopt.
