Guess he is more upset at the officer than the guy who allegedly assaulted him or about his injuries. This seems very odd if he was seriously assaulted. Story has a funny smell. Perhaps it was just a shoving match and maybe he provoked the other guy or even shoved him first...and had the idea that "aha, I am a protected class, and you are not, the police will take my side and see you as sub-human vermin, so I will call them"...just speculating here. But it does have a funny smell, and I doubt this guy is being fully honest in his characterization or inclusion of all parts of the story.
What’s next? A “Queer Lives Matter” movement?
This post was passing around on FB last night. Trying to figure out what happened...
Apparently, this incident occurred near a children’s museum, and the dad had his children with him. I don’t know what the dad’s story is, but maybe there was some kind of public affection (?) that the father wasn’t comfortable with his children seeing.
That doesn’t justify anything, of course. Just trying to figure out what led to the confrontation because, if this guy was just sitting there, how would the dad even know anything about him?
Yet no one caught this?
“So, long story short, but I was physically assaulted by a homophobe from Maryland today.”
The Freak State.
You’re welcome.

They use TENS units.
Same thing, only smaller.
Yep...some kind of Bangor, Maine link in the OP....
Get a taser? Those pervs would probably find some way to make it a sex toy.
I would be surprised if there are not more than a few “gay men” who already have tasers for their S&M rituals.
More likely a common mugger or another queer acting on a fantasy.
Homosexuals use those terms to each other as a matter of course. It’s like “nigger.” The people for whom use of the word would supposedly induce heart attacks or at least the vapors use it with each other in normal conversation.
Are you new to English?
If in the same situation I would get my wallet out and show him my Chick-fil-a gift card.
“Of COURSE it happened, you can’t put anything on the Internet if it isn’t true!”
Just another attention whore thinking she can do her bit for The Glorious Cause (remember Alinsky’s “A good tactic is one your people enjoy”) and start a Facebood meme.
Actually no. I just enjoy trolling the hell out of Grammar cops at 11:30 at night.
Heh, my cousin’s son moved to Portland because it was more “gay friendly”.
Have often wanted to ask him what that means....
Good catch..
It is Maine...
Cousin’s kid went to Portland, OR....
How about this, Mr. Queer? Why don’t you keep you mental illness to yourself and indulge in it in the privacy of your own bedroom? Did you try to grope a straight guy’s crotch, or were you giving him eyes and making those nasty little sucking sounds? Knock it off!
Version 2 of this story went up on Facebook today...and it looks like things are starting to get complicated...
“The detective says that because no one witnessed him punch me, it makes the assault charge difficult to prosecute. I get it...
I was also interviewed by David Harry for the Forecaster, and the online version of the story is supposed to go up today. He said there are things in the article I ‘might not like’, which I assume refers to his interview with the Chief of Police...”

At this rate, Mr Melanson may end up being the one that gets arrested. I’ll be interested to see if Mr Steed, the author of your original article, follows up.
