Gay baths raid slammed -'forces' sex between gays out into the streets and into public view

Didn't the left tell us that it was all about what happens in the privacy of their bedroom? Apparently the left lied again. Gay rights seem to have less to do with rights and more to do with flaunting laws and decency.

So why don't they find their own 'private place' for sex, like the rest of us do? They're providing a place for married men to have out of wedlock gay sex. Imagine the uproar if someone were providing a place for married men to have out of wedlock 'regular' sex.

This is outside my level of understanding.

One generation ago when the hunt for AIDS Patient Zero was on, my closest friend's wife's brother, an M.D., was doing CDC funded field research in San Francisco - the "bath house" scene. After two remarkable bath house interviews, two "men" swore in affidavits that in the year past they had had sex with about 1,500 and 2,500 different "men". This doctor said he was left with a deeply felt reaction of "Let them die."

You are exactly right. The entire sodomite rights movement is about denigrating human relationships to a lower level while bringing everyone else down along the way. If they kept it in the privacy of their own homes - like 99% of straight people do - there would be no problems. The discrimination comes into play when sexual preferences are taken to work, restaurants, and schools and are put in people's faces. A lot of people know that homosexuality is not normal and when it's shoved at them, these same people have a tendency to either turn away (a la Rosie O'Donnell's and Ellen Degenerese cancelled shows) or shove back. The sodomites need to keep it in their houses - they need to be gay on their own time and out of sight.

The idea of a gay bath house is sort of like a known crack house (no pun intended). If it's known that illegal things are going on inside - people paying for sex and/or drugs - then go in and arrest them. Either that or unleash everyone and make everything legal - just let me know first so I can move my family to some other nation before all hell breaks loose here.

Not enough strange men.

They are not gathering places.

Back in the late 70's, before aids, the local Detroit police had a policy of 'leaving em alone' in their bathhouses, bookstores and bars.

Their thought was it gives them a place to go and keeps them out of the mall, park and rest areas bathrooms...

This was mostly likely true.

What? They don't know how to use phones, and can't call a bunch up and ask them if they want to go to their place and have a party?

If they did, it wouldn't be anonymous.
