Gay rights apparently means no rights for others.
This occurred in Utah, a largely Mormon state. So, we have queers prancing and flouncing in a “Pervert’s Parade” in teh same city where the Mormon central Temple is located.
Perhaps it is time for them to go full ‘Mountin’ Meadows on the prancers & flouncers - release their inner Mormon, so to speak.
But, they have decided to “Love the sinner but not the sin.” An interesting concept, that.
I’m inclined to call “Humbuggery!” on that one.
Obama must have blackmailed the LDS leadership, especially if one considers the heavy lifting Mormons exerted in California to defeat ‘Queer Marriage’.
Funny when you can come down on BOTH sides of the ‘argument’.
I agree an assignment is an assignment BUT would you have a Black Cop provide security for a KKK meeting if he didn’t want to ‘protect’ them?
If he didn’t want to be the ‘Special Detail’ at a BYU Football game would you force him to do it or find someone that wanted to go to the FB game?
Do they have black officers work the KKK Pride rallies as well?
Sick homofascism in Utah. If it can happen there, it can happen anywhere
Whether it be homo “rights” (snort) or KKK, he should get out there, do his easy shift, protect the 1st Amendment, and watch the fascists further make assess of themselves. Sheesh.
Boots will be applied to necks... kinky boots that is.
Lara Jones. “We don’t tolerate bias and bigotry in the department,
And besides their cute.
If this was an official assignment, the officer should either be demoted and lose $ or fired. An officer’s duty is to uphold and enforce the law for EVERYONE, not for who they agree with.
They really have no idea about diversity. How about a ‘gay greed’ or ‘gay sloth’ parade instead of the same old tired ‘gay pride’ stuff.
The department also will have a community outreach and recruitment booth at the pride festival, Jones said, and participates in a standing committee to address public safety issues relating to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender residents.

Apparently the powers that be want more homosexuals and cross-dressers in the department. And they want more people to become homosexual. Where will it end?
I worked with a guy when I lived in Asheville. His wife was trying to get on the police force. He said one of the cops told his wife she needed to be a lesbian to get hired or at least say she was. That was about 14 years ago. I’m sure it’s much worse now.
Sounds like the homos need the “sensitivity training” regarding heterosexuals.
In essence they say we do not have the same rights or protections as that of the immoral folks that seek to punish or destroy any and all who disagree with their lifestyle. Tyranny is tyranny. I hope the officer can successfully sue the offending PD for mega bucks.
If I was still Deputy, I would also refuse... If I was still military, and they push the same crap, I would rather face Art. 15 or CM that go the queer way :/
