Buford parsons, a Virginia judge decided that it was in the "best interest" of two year old Tyler Doustou to take him away from his mother, Sharon Bottoms, simply because she's a lesbian. Tyler has been placed in the home of Sharon's mother and stepfather who, Sharon reports, sexually abused her repeatedly as a child.

Lesbian rights advocates across the nation are urging an immediate response to this outrageous decision. Don't let right-wing hatred of lesbians run loose!
