Two gay men forced to leave a government recreational facility in Hazard, KY

No, asshole. You DON'T own this place. The taxpayers of Hazard, Kentucky, which include the 2 gay men, do.

What makes this worse is that the man said he could tell them to leave because it says so in the Bible. Really? Can somebody show me where in the Bible it says that gay people are to be kicked out of government-run swimming pools? Oh, wait. I found the passage.



Hey, Lookee here. I can make up crap and claim it's from the Bible too. Pat Robertson would be very proud of me. :mrgreen:

On a more serious note, this man should be given his pink slip immediately.

Article is here.

Oh my, look at this:

Paul Collins, the city's attorney, said that he is still investigating, but based on initial information, "there seems to be a wide disparity between the versions of the events."

Collins said a lifeguard said he saw the two men repeatedly hugging and kissing in a corner of the pool.

"The staff at the Pavilion report to me that they do on some regular basis caution or warn individuals about excessive public displays of affection and that these warnings are given regardless of sexual orientation," Collins said.

As a gay 'man and a gay 'Libertarian, aren't you outraged, don't you want to see some justice here?

The employee was suspended for 5 days without pay for being disrespectful to the public, his supervisor was officially reprimanded, and the rules will henceforth be enforced uniformly at the pool. That is justice.

So as a gay'man and a gay'libertarian, you're satisfied with the actions taken both by the pavilion staff and the city?
 
How does caution and warn equal kick out?

Are they seriously suggesting they kick put everyone that hugs or kisses at the pool? "oh my god, that woman kissed her husband hello. SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!"

As a reasonable human being, I am more than satisfied with the actions being taken. Mr. Haynes embarrassed two gay men locally, he has been embarrassed nationally. If anything, he has more than paid his debt.

You DO realize that apostrophes are not necessary in the case of non'contractions, right?

You seem awfully butthurt about it Jerry.

Does it bother you that you weren't the one to kick the hugging homos out of the pool?

Well of course not being a gay'man or a gay'parent myself, I'm trying to be more seeeeenncitive and iiinnncluuuusssive to the needs of ooootherrs, such as all the native'Americans in my neighborhood.

As a gay'man and a gay'libertarian, does my post upset you?

And yes it upsets me that they couldn't even bother to get the security camera footage on YouTube.

Not really. The fact that you keep calling me "gay'man and a gay'libertarian" shows that I bug ya. That make me purdy happy.

Look Jerry....

He thinks you got a purdy mouf...
 
I wonder what I would have done in Kim's place. Maybe tossed them a beach ball. I really don't know. If they were truly, for lack of a better term, retarded, or obviously "special" (and I mean no insult - I'm just not sure how to describe them) I like to think I could have approached their caregiver and suggested maybe she intervene in what might become an awkward distraction.

I don't know. I would like to read the city attorney's report, but I can't find it. (I haven't looked for it since yesterday tho and there seems to be more reportage today.)
