Remember that time they took the whole "Stonewall Reenactment" too far?

I'm livid about this (http://joemygod.blogspot.com/2010/03/outrageous-fort-worth-police-press.html) all over again. I feel like I'm barely holding on now, but that I will literally lose any hope or faith I have for equality in this country if any of these charges stick.

A similar thing happened in Atlanta last year. I have a friend whose club takes over the back bar once a month. (He's 63 and a great guy. He always gets us senior discounts for the museum and has season tickets to the ASO. He's harmless unless you're a hot young red head.) A federal lawsuit was filed against the APD.

The Fort Worth police acting like that is just stupidity gone to seed! Everyone from the mayor on down apologizes yet they still press charges? It makes them look homophobic and power crazy.

Probably a citation was in order at best. Don't understand the purpose of them prosecuting the two men. Another way of wasting taxpayer's money on flimsy cases.

..and encouraging said men to press charges of their own (which I'm led to believe hadn't happened yet).
