Oh no you see adoption. We have the best adoption centers and pro lifers line up to adopt. Adopters get training and support, adoptees get excellent pre-K and excellent public schools. Everyone gets excellent universal healthcare. See?

Don't forget conservatives blocking out thousands of married gay and lesbian couples from adopting despite them ACTIVELY wanting to adopt.

It can be helpful for anyone when reading text that doesn't indicate tone very well.

Not everyone is a professional writer that can properly express sarcasm through text
