If they want to better serve the LGBTSTDPDQ crowd they should add penicillin to the officer’s pepper spray.

Why? Do LGBTQ people need their Miranda rights read differently? Do they need handcuffs put on in a more inclusive way?

This pandering to .06% of the population is just bizarre.
I have to believe it’s a net loss vote wise but maybe it’s a big gain for fund raising, it must be it’s the only rational explanation...but I shouldn’t assume lucent thinking with the rats.

Aren’t these just people, you know, two arms, two legs, one head...they eat, breath, sleep like the rest of us...so why does their sex life make their treatment different from any one else? They aren’t special, or homeless, or rich or poor because of their sex life..well maybe, ah do they do anything else besides have sex? Maybe that is it..wow, what a miserable life. Poor things.

The Police will need rubber gloves when handling persons of the LGBT persuasion. What other aspects do they heed. Disabled people are not treated any differently by the police.

Who cares? Why should the LGBT folks be treated any differently than anyone else? What a WASTE of public money and police time to give them special training toward any particular group.

"The Police will need rubber gloves when handling persons of the LGBT persuasion."

And what method should we use for handling persons of the Liar, Fraud, Stolen Valor persuasion?

Hmmm?

You foul the air on FR with your continued presence.

Look, we know you were never “entooooooombed for daaaaaays”.
Either coming clean, or walking away would be better than pretending you didn’t lie.
