GLASGOW, Scotland, July 19, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Glasgow firefighters who refused to participate in a gay pride event may face disciplinary action, the Herald reported today.

Ten men from the Cowcaddens fire station are under investigation after they refused orders to man an information stall during the Pride Scotia parade. The men were told to attend the June 24 event in uniform and hand out leaflets on fire safety.

The Herald reported that some refused on grounds of conscience, while others were “embarrassed” to attend the event in uniform. Their superior officers reported the men for disobeying orders, said BBC News.

Scottish National Party MSP Fergus Ewing said disciplinary action against the men would be “unbelievable.”

“Firefighters are entitled to their private views. Since when was handing out leaflets at a gay event considered a firefighter’s core duty?”

The gay rights group Stonewall Scotland said the firefighters treated “lesbian and gay Scots” as “second-class citizens” by refusing to attend the event.

Strathclyde Fire and Rescue confirmed an investigation is underway in a press release July 12, saying “A number of firefighters are currently the subject of an internal investigation concerning the delivery of fire-safety advice at the recent Pride Scotia parade.” The fire and rescue organization is one of the largest in Europe, covering about 2.3 million residents.

How can any homosexual have "dignity". They are ALL an abomination.....disgusting perverted freaks.

LOL! Whatever dude. If you say so...

<< He saw the fight for exactly what it was -- (degenerate sexually disordered sodomists) wanting easy access to children. >>

That is, he projected both the content of his own character in a way that revealed his own perverted fantasies to all who were awake and competent at that time and place.

<< He (feigned being) "outraged" that (other sodomists) claimed to represent everyone in the (sexually disordered) "community .... " >>

.... and, in order that too many barriers be not put in the way of them, wanted that degenerate and deviate gang's universally insidious shirt-lifting, turd-burgling and little-boy-buggaring ambitions kept as far from public knowledge as was possible.

Have you come here to push the homosexual agenda? Sure looks like that to me.

[Brian Allen]

Why pick on that one, Bro'?

Throw in froth and foam flecked antisemitism and a large dash of rabid moral relativism and sounds to me that you're but describing but the average common-garden once great limey "conservative."

That's probably about right. The majority of homosexuals cringe at the actions and antics of the 'gay pride' and 'gay rights' activists. It exposes in public the nature of the homosexual urges. The activists are so determined to have free access, and acceptance of their perversions, they don't see how their determination to have access to boys and to be allowed to flaunt their perversions in public shows the public what really goes on in their heads and their pants.

My own long experience with other homos for many years has proven to me why the homosexual agenda is so dangerous to society. Of course the majority of homosexuals are embarrased by the activists. They put all the things that happen in secret and private under a microscope, and show everyone what really goes on, encouraging the restrictions of homosexuals to children.

I say this that from experience, and not from reading reports or data.

Firemen Put Out by Flaming Queens

LOL cle-ver

We cannot have a fire service, police or military that will only do it's duty for people whose 'lifestyle' choices it agrees with.

Yes, we can. Homosexuality is not a lifestyle, it's a perversion and a sin. In no way would I associate with those people.

Balderdash..

Repeating tired and hackneyed shibboleths...

don't make it so.

You are perhpas unaware you that Ann Colter set us free?...

We are silent no more, filled with angst over how fortunate we are and how unfortunate you are. How we should try to accommodate your actions while your "lunatics" condemn our very existence and faith. All of course while demanding the right to sodomize our children or at least encourage high schoolers to "explore there "sexuality" in "Gay Club".

I have a question.

In the Glee Club they used to sing... In the Latin Club we used to practice Latin, In the Debate Club we used to
engage in Debate and Oratory...

Now just what is it that they do in High School "Gay Club"?

You seek our silent acquiescence to your demands for respect not earned.

Sorry that game over.

Bizarre. And for what it's worth, I consider militant gays (the kind that have pride marches) as roughly tenth- or eleventh-class citizens.

Me too.

Activist gays have become another hate-filled terrorist group. They push and push and push, no imagery intended, for legislation they want, to try and sneak in through any back doors in the education system, in the political system, anything dishonest, anything against the will of the people, even as it costs their and others' lives to do it.

It is not the acts of homosexuality that is the root --, it is the hatred of others. It's not love, it's hate filled terrorism.

Good Lord, which one of Vectorian's posts in this thread are you referencing to suggest he's a 'pervert'? Seriously, that's pretty out of order.
