MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. (KABC) -- Eighteen men were arrested as part of a sex sting operation involving a public restroom in Manhattan Beach.

The lifeguard staff at the Marine Avenue headquarters originally noticed vandalism and what was called suspicious activity at the restroom and notified police. Lifeguards also noticed men frequently using and returning to the same bathroom, and some were loitering in the area as well as inside the restroom for long periods of time.

Officers set up surveillance at the restroom. Detectives also began monitoring several websites where discussions of the Marine Avenue bathroom were taking place. Based on the information gathered, investigators concluded that the public restroom was being used as a meeting place for sexual activity.

Isn’t that where George Michael was arrested for public sex in a bathroom?

I would think the sharp metal edges would be dangerous.

What is it with queers and public restrooms??

Had a similar sting in our town a couple years ago. A public restroom in a park.

As someone once said, “That’s one big hole”.

Rosie O’Donnell?
Rachel Maddow?
Barney Frank?

The pilot of the “Enola Gay”? I didn’t deliberately think of this one and the name of the plane. Sorry Col. Tibbets.

Must be the Obama economy. Even Motel 6 is out of their price range.

I guess they should ask Obama if they can use the Lincoln Bedroom.

If they claimed they were part of the Muslim Brotherhood, they’d be playing in the White House tonight.

Not one of them is smiling. I thought they were supposed to be gay?

Of course, all these fellows have now bolstered their resumes for various Democrat party tickets in California, especially San Fransicko.
