I think y'all have heard about this horrible story.
Jason Hanna and Joe Riggs are the biological fathers of twin sons Lucas and Ethan. The babies were carried a surrogate who has no biological connection to the baby boys. So you would think that the fathers would be on the birth certificate, right?
Nope, wrong! In Texas, they will not be recognized.
Since the Lone Star start doesn't recognize same sex marriages, the rules are all over the place and the loopholes are wild and free. A judge could make up their own decisions based on stupid facts or logic. In this case, the judge decided that Jason and Joe could not be on their kids' birth certificate as a father, however the surrogate mother is on the birth certificate!
Really, Texas? After everything that has happened with bans being dropped, they still act like that? My heart goes out to Jason and Joe. I hope that the government gets involved. And by government, I mean HOLDER!
No bans have been dropped here. A judge ruled the gay marriage ban unconstitutional and Texas has decided "yup, we're OK with not giving constitutional rights to faggots". So... yeah... this is just yet another homophobic story in a long line of bullshit from this state. It's really horrible.
ReplyDeleteI initially moved to Texas because they presented themselves as a "live and let live" state - as long as you don't mess with me I don't give a crap what you do kinda state. Totally not the case.
Texas is a "be a Christian or get shot" kinda state.
