Two gay men who say they were punched and pinned to the ground by an off-duty police officer before being called offensive names and jailed without their trousers have sued the city of Cleveland and its police over what they call anti-gay bias.

Those gd cops should all be fired. There is no room for this kind of behavior in a civilized society.

Gay people need to grow up. It's stuff like this that hurts the gay movement.

So the cop should be fired on the word of these two gay guys? Like these gay guys word is gold or something? I generally will defend gay people but these two don't seem credible. Multiple arrests and the article stated that COOPERATIVE arrestees are generally allowed to retrieve their clothes. These two sound like a couple of a-holes.

The only thing that's going to change it is letting this older generation die off. The younger ones get it.

No corroborating evidence is cited. As this is the United States, hence, a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. They'll have their day in court.

Winner!

I hate the gays who use the "It happened because I'm a homo card" every time something negative happens to them.

Their attorney made this comment:
Attorney Dan Chaplin, who represented Ondo in the criminal case, said each man weighs about 120 to 130 pounds and they were tossed around like rag dolls by their 225-pound neighbor.

I figured they would like that kind of rough stuff.

If it was 2 normal guys who were arrested and sent to jail without their pants, FairwoodKing would not have a problem with it.

First of all, there is nothing abnormal about being gay.

Secondly, yes, I would have a problem with it.

Same words spoken by every generation since the beginning of time. Every new generation is always smarter and more enlightened than ever before. But - yeah - once the "older" generation (whoever they are) die off the world will be a better place. :rolleyes:

Do you honestly not believe that the younger generation is more accepting of someone being gay than most of the older generation?? :confused:

Actually, yes. Young people have grown up around gays and lesbians. The older generation doesn't have a clue. Just ask Joe Paterno.

First and last off it is abnormal. The ultimate goal of any species is to reproduce, its one of the driving forces of evolution.

By not reproducing you are fucking up the human species.

One of man's most natural instincts is to have sex... with a woman. With a woman, b/c of procreation. I don't give a rip what you say, anal penetration (whether it's male/female or male/male, is not "normal"). Being gay is not normal, I'm sorry. Quit crying. You are different, and that's OK. But you are not the "norm."

That's not true. Homosexuality has existed in every civilization throughout recorded time. It even exists in the animal kingdom. As far as the need to make more babies, let me remind you that this planet is woefully overpopulated. The planet cannot continue to house this many people forever. The fact that I don't make babies is a good thing.

Most of the "gay hate crimes" that I have read about usually involve younger people. I have not seen too many 50+ yr olds going around beating up on gay people.

You're an evolutionary retardent. You are not a good thing. The earth is not overpopulated, shut up with your bullshit agenda. Nothing normal with homosexuality.

I didn't say all young people are tolerant. But the under 35 crowd overwhelmingly votes for gay rights. It's the over 50 crowd that remains our problem.
