Gay couples can not raise children safely - Conservative MP
http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/...h_2482403b.jpg
Mr Jones said he did not believe he was homophobic [The Tory MP, who voted against the Government's plans to introduce gay marriage in the Commons last week, made his remarks to ITV Wales's Face To Face programme. Shadow Welsh secretary Owen Smith blasted the comments as evidence that the "nasty party is alive and well under David Cameron". ] http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/poli...en-safely.html No its not the PM's view. Jones MP is stuck in the past |
What a horrible, horrible man. I'd like to know his reasons for his view. Maybe then we'll see who's homophobic.
(Although anything that gets the Conservatives negative publicity is a good thing however.) |
But teenagers can...
What a beastly creature. |
He is entitled to his view,even though I think him completely wrong and disagree 100% with him.
His closed view of this issue, that is if he has been quoted correctly, leaves me with the thought that is also very worrying that he holds any Ministerial postion at all. |
Since when did sexuality define the kind of environment that can be provided to children?? It was a ridiculous thing to say. Can a jobless teenager provide a safer environment, or a mother and father in a domestic violence situation etc..etc.. His reasoning is crazy...

What an idiot, he is clearly out of touch and ignorant.
He is obviously homophobic to brand all gay coupled in such a way, there are good and bad parents everywhere, sexuality should not even be discussed when raising children. |

This lot seem to be doing okay..

Not that all unplanned babies are unwanted, but the way I figure it is that if someone goes to that much effort to plan a child, then they're ready for the responsibility of raising it. |

Do you think the dads all co-ordinated their tops and shades? |
I think NPH and David tend to be stylish, but Elton just does his own thing. lol

I agree that it is harder for gay couples to create a safe environment, children would be born into a world where strangers instantly hate their parents. UK definitely isn't the most homophobic country but it is nowhere near the most accepting.
He never really goes onto say why he has these views in the video but if his reasons are 'narrow minded people like me will make it near enough impossible for you to create a safe environment' I can see his point.. |
i'm sure there're strangers who hate him right now, maybe we should strip him of his right to parenthood :idc:

I'm saying that it's not a good point at all, if we stripped people of their right to adopt because someone hates them.

I think you're right without it though, this man is clearly a knob. And if he was saying all of this because the UK isn't a safe place for a gay family, I think the same could be said for hundreds of people and put his only argument to rest |

In this analogy one can and one can't. |
Quote:
My point being that no one would come out and say a teeneager should not have the right to children but it's acceptable to say it about a gay couple? |
Quote:
Some might say that yes, and no it's not acceptable to say this about anyone. You should always judge everyone on their individual merits to avoid stereotyping. |
No I have been very careful about saying nothing categorically.. I said "can" a jobless teenager etc...not that anyone could. I'm not being tetchy her Kizzy and apologise if it comes across that way but I spent many years in infertility clinics, having rounds of failed treatments and know the absolute heartbreak of being unable to have children and all that it entails and so I get very passionate about anyone who tries to say anyone should not have the right to children, particularly on the grounds of something like sexuality...I appreciate that is not what YOU are saying are by the way..

Ah, maybe our wires were crossed a little. It is very frustrating to see those who are parents and neither want nor care for their children when there are those like yourself and same sex couples with love to give annie. :hug:
