I...., what irks me more is that it's a problem for folks to have sex in public. Leave them the hell alone. That should be legal, imo, and the police should be concentrating on violent crimes and property crimes.
Please keep that type of thing in your neighborhhod.
That's definitely what I'm saying. I find your disgust digusting. Being disgusted by sex suggests other problems to me. Disturbed by observing someone having sex? First off, what if someone is disturbed by the fact that they can't have sex in public.
Get over it. Sex, no matter if it's gay or straight, is not appropriate for public places.
Quote:
Should they have to be disturbed because some family is uncomfortable with sex? We have a serious problem when people are disturbed or disgusted by sex, including if they're disturbed or disgusted by the thought or sight of other people having sex.
I really don't care if people have sex, nor do I care how they have sex, or with whom. I just don't think it should be a public activity. Most of society, and the law of the land, is in agreement.
I think those caught in the act of sex in public places should get the water cannon treatment.
Maybe "LuckoftheDraw" we could have designated "whamming stations" cordoned off for every new public works endeavor, say, 100 square feet for every 5000 square feet built? We could install a curtain around the area.
The entire premise of this thread is getting obfuscated by an absurd notion that sexuality should be publicly allowed.
LOL...how much acid had Zappa dropped when he made that statement
You know that Zappa didn't do drugs, right? He also had a pretty strict "no drug usage (or effects from usage) while on the job" policy for band members. A couple guys got canned for that over the years.
Here's a funny Zappa quote on LSD: "Did you ever consider that LSD was really one of the most dangerous drugs ever manufactured because the people who took it turned into yuppies?"
I still find it odd that the undercover detective didn't have non-lethal weapons such as pepper spray or a taser. Don't they teach law enforcement that for the get-go? I agree with other poster who said that there's something fishy about the detective's story.
The detective KNOWS how to use a gun properly and could have shot the guy in a non-fatal area of the body (leg, arm) instead of killing the poor guy! So what if the CEO was a supposed closeted homosexual? That's not the issue here. The issue is that the detective screwed up, period and should go to trial for it. I think that he shouldn't have had to use deadly force and should have called for backup if the CEO was really making that much of a problem for the officer.
Let this be a lesson to undercover law enforcement: ALWAYS bring a non-lethal weapon with you! Tasers and pepper-spray I suggest.

Law enforcement personnel are not trained to fire their weapon only to wound. It is to kill.
Regardless, the undercover detective shouldn't have killed the guy.
That is not for you or I to say. I don't believe there are enough details to make solid judgment.
