That’s the one thing the media almost totally “forgot” to mention. This cop isn’t just sitting there waiting to be hit on, he’s the one who initiates the whole thing by his foot tapping or noises or whatever. The reason for the sting is allegedly to deter guys from looking for sex in these bathrooms so normal guys can take care of business without being unnerved by some pervert in the next stall hitting on them. Unfortunately, Mr. Straight and Narrow who’s being hit on by the undercover cop, doesn’t know he’s an undercover cop, so it kinda defeats the purpose of the whole thing
even before being enlightened on homo behavior in public bathrooms by this incident I think my response if someone stuck their foot under my stall would have been “what the f&@k do you think you are doing!!”
