It's not oppression to prevent public displays of sex in a park. It's in fact enforcing the law and upholding community standards.Sammy wasn't gay, but he was Arab and having a mental meltdown, which has too often resulted in a hail a bullets. BLM pointed out the hypocrisy of having the cops there. The recent charges they laid at Marie Curtis park show they still oppress homosexuals. As I said Gay Pride has become a parade for several groups that have faced oppression. Blacks are still on the receiving end and the cops have still shown serious incidents of misbehavior. Policing culture in Canada is toxic and unacceptable. Cops are essential, and I recognize this, but they need to be called out on their failings and forced to change. They have improved to a degree, but there is quite a lot still left to be desired about policing culture in Canada.
PET stated the gov't has no place in the bedroom. I agree with this. But they sure as hell have the obligation to prevent sexual entounters in publicly accessible areas on public property. Especially a place where families and children congregate.
And there is no argument, no statute, no charter of rights challenge you can come up with that gives the right of two people to engage in oral sex where children are. Period.
Go home, get a room, a bathhouse. Whatever. I don't care. But I don't want to have to run into it. Period.
