… I don’t think that is the right kid of parenting,” he said, responding to a question about gay foster parents.
He refined his position on changing the law, however. Making it consistent, he said, will depend on whether the courts uphold Florida’s gay adoption ban. “We’re going to find out a whole more about it when we resolve this issue and get the constitutional questions resolved,” said McCollum, who expects the case to reach the state Supreme Court.
As state attorney general, McCollum is defending the state’s controversial gay adoption ban, the only one of its kind in the nation.
His defense became equally controversial when an alternative Miami newspaper reported in May that a male expert witness hired by the state to testify about the dangers of gay adoption had hired a male prostitute.
Officials fear Arizona-type immigration law in Clearwater

CLEARWATER — They brought the woman to Florida from Guatemala, promising her a housekeeping job. Instead, they turned her into a prostitute.
And, according to Clearwater police, members of the sex trafficking ring gave her a chilling warning: Don’t even think about going to police. Cops, they told her, will show you no mercy.
From incidents like this, Clearwater police Chief Tony Holloway learned a lesson about mixing immigration policy with local law enforcement. People like the young woman — undocumented but the victim of a human-trafficking operation — are “not going to report the crime. That’s how you breed these organized crimes.”
This helps explain why Holloway wants no part of an Arizona-style immigration law in Florida.

McCree and residents are unsure where the neighborhood got its nickname, but said most everyone calls it “the bottom.”
The name may derive from the slight downward slope of Amos Avenue, said Sgt. Terri Smith, Lakeland Police Department spokeswoman. The area is rumored to have once bordered a creek.
Residents and law enforcement remember when the neighborhood was a haven for crime.
Ralph LaMones Jr., 33, grew up on Amos Avenue and recalls coming home from school when he was a third-grader to find deputies rounding up drug offenders in the neighborhood.
A portion of Crawford Street between Amos Avenue and Lincoln Avenue stood just outside the city limits in the early 1980s when Capt. Victor White, then a Lakeland Police Department narcotics officer, patrolled the area. Gambling, prostitution and drugs reigned on that block of Crawford Street.

That sounds just like Obama, as that particular doofus said, apparently before reading Mr. DeWeese’s article and getting a little smarts, “We know the jobs of the 21st century will be created in developing alternative energy,” which is so laughably preposterous that I am sure it made Mr. DeWeese laugh with a cruelly mocking tone as did the Cruelly Mocking Mogambo (CMM)! Hahaha!
Actually, I figure that the most jobs will be created in making 3-D pornography, importing high-definition video equipment on which to view it, smuggling stuff, and rampant prostitution as Americans find out the true market value of their terrible educations and ridiculous sense of entitlement versus the value of software and industrial robots, particularly if software starts making a robot that can shoot flames out of its mouth and bullets out of its fingers.

This is my 16th year as a professional journalist, which means I’ve been around.
I was there when Barry Bonds hit his 73rd home run. There when Robin Ventura hit his grand slam single. There when Cal Ripken Jr. played in his final All-Star Game and there when Luis Gonzalez’s blooper up the middle beat the Yankees in the 2001 World Series. I’ve strolled through the bowels of an arena with Allen Iverson, spent a week traveling with the Oakland A’s, drove through the darkness of Ada, Okla., with a pair of rodeo brothers and watched as the world’s craziest sneaker collector begged Michael Jordan for his Nikes.
I went on an undercover prostitution sting with Nashville’s police department, jumped 13,000 feet from an airplane and interviewed both Minnesota Fats and Rodney Dangerfield shortly before their deaths.
