Unbelievable. This story has got to be a gag. Firemen reprimanded for shining lights on bushes? Next thing you’ll hear is someone wants more plants, like poison ivy and stinging nettles and thorny roses just to keep people “out the bushes.”

“They were appalled because they weren’t invited.”

That or they are just embarrassed to admit that this is just an escalation of their mental illness. Just being gay has been so accepted now that it isn’t shocking enough to be arousing anymore or them.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

And yet instead of trying to treat these people’s disease either with hormones if it’s biological or therapy if it’s psychological, we pretend it’s not a disease but normal and natural.

Truly, I think this kind of behavior is a manifestation of some kind of genuine psychological pathology. There seems, too, to be a very strong masochistic element to it.

[LaurenD]

In some cases psychological pathology for sure, but if I ever had a teen aged son start acting like a girl, I would have his hormone levels tested and if in need of testosterone, get him started on whatever hormone regimen needed. Normal people wouldn’t withhold insulin from a diabetic or other hormones for other diseases, but when it’s a sexual disorder, it can’t even be labeled a disorder because of the politics involved.

The big argument always made is that people are born gay. That there is a gene for it. There are genes for all kinds of diseases but we still treat them and call them diseases.

They are mentally ill as far as I’m concerned.

It could be a combined manifestation of extroversion, exhibitionism, pedophilia and of course homosexuality which was itself classified as a mental disorder until the APA removed it from the listing entirely due to political pressure.

[gidget7]

The area hit the headlines last year when four firemen who disturbed an outdoor gay sex session were reprimanded and fined after they shone torches into the undergrowth.

Talk about bizzarro world! The whole lot of these people are truly insane. Liberalism IS a mental disorder.

[river rat]

Now perverts are entitled to have sex in public parks?

All things considered — England and the world is doomed.

The lunatics are in charge, and we’ve become too “civilized” and “sophisticated” to kick their freaking asses back into the closet or a cave where they belong.

[Stoat]

Lends a new meaning to “Harvey’s Bristol Cream.”

Oh Lawdy......

Firemen reprimanded for shining lights on bushes?

Not only reprimanded, but HEAVILY fined.  From the linked Daily Mail article:

The firefighters were suspended on full pay during a three-month investigation. Two were fined up to £1,000, one was demoted in rank and the other given a written warning.

They have all been ordered to attend an equality course and the fines will be donated to the a nominated gay-rights charity.

One being mooted is the Jamaican Forum for Lesbians All-Sexuals and Gays (J-FLAG) although no final decision has been made.

Almost TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS, a rank demotion and also a permanent written warning that stays in your employment file until the end of time....all for shining a light on a gaggle of perverts.

Agreed on all counts, but there has been a bit of good news for Great Britain just recently:

Cameron hails by-election victory (MORE great news for Conservatives in the UK)

(BNP beats Labour in recent election)

Ken's partner axed as Boris Johnson purges City Hall 'wimmin'(London Mayor Update)

But in a drive against political correctness, Mr Johnson also decided to scrap the post of "women's adviser", held by Labour activist Anni Marjoram.

Others whose jobs were deleted were Mr Livingstone's Left-wing cultural and events adviser, Jude Woodward, his planning chief Eleanor Young and his "senior policy adviser on the creative industries" Emma St Giles.

(edit)

Ms Woodward is the most contentious of the five as she is a member of Socialist Action, the secretive far-Left group seen as having run City Hall for the past eight years.

I don't mean to suggest that things are completely rosy across the Pond, but there have been 'a few' recent signs that people are getting fed up and are working to change things.

This council in Bristol, however, does not appear to have gotten the memo yet.

Crabs, fleas, sand. I just get tingly all over thinking about it.

The fecal eaters want their privacy. Give them time to come out of the bushes and let them have another parade.

as opposed to rare nightlife?
 

Sadly, it's not so very rare.  From the article:

A spokesman for Avon and Somerset force said: "Last year saw 250 people arrested throughout the force for offences including outraging public decency to kerb crawling.

(edit)

The Trust has been criticised in the past for handing out free condoms in the area of the Downs where people were engaging in outdoor sex,

Unbelievable. If this is true, you just sent the message that firemen should not attempt to determine if crimes are in progress because they might never know when that rustle in the leaves is a crime in progress or a crime now being called progress.

In other words, firemen and bobbies have just gotten the message to mind their own business.

People should keep their eyes open to an increase in crime due solely to dumbing down those protecting society from crimes. When that happens, will people go quickly to the graves of the victims or will they place blame where it belongs and take action to prevent further such crimes caused by political correctness?

When sharia law come into effect in the UK, they will be cutting more than the undergrowth, they will also cut the overgrowth which includes anything above the shoulders.
