This summer, Fort Lauderdale Mayor Jim Naugle said installing single-occupancy restrooms at local beaches would deter homosexual activity. Also, the mayor voted against relocating a homosexual library on public property. Since making these decisions, the mayor has endured public criticism from homosexual activists and their supporters.
Mayor Naugle says the reaction by homosexuals shows the danger of proposed hate crimes legislation.
"There are websites ... identifying different locations in my city that are available for men to have sex with men," says Naugle. "I spoke out against that -- and this is a good example of the dangers of the hate crimes legislation, because I've been [accused of] hate speech and [called] a bigot and all kinds of things." He adds that he finds it "really amazing" that speech against illegal activity is labeled as hate speech.

I'm not gay, but who are you to say that two men having sex is "wrong".
Are you aware that things a lot of heterosexual people do is wrong too? In some states there are still laws prohibiting oral sex. In Texas it's against the law to sell dildos. If you own six or more sex toys, you can be charged with intent to sell, which is a felony. And don't think that only atheists use sex toys. There aren't enough atheists in the universe to account for all the sex toys in Texas alone.

Does that mean he approves of public heterosexual activity? And how does he know about those websites identifying different locations for homosexuals to meet?

So the mayor is a bigot...
And yes, that would constitute hate speech.

I don't think sex, be it between 2 men, 2 women, or a man and a woman, belongs in public at all.
I don't think it should be because of "homosexuals" but because of public indecency.

Gotta love the hate-mongering.
Can we round up the leftys next? That's unnatural too. I'm morally opposed to it.

And how, exactly, is this not homophobic?
Are you just trying to get rid of points? What is with all these dumb questions you keep asking?
