Dear Editor:

Last year my car was stolen – parked right in front of my residence. I called the San Diego Police at least 3 times regarding the incident, but no officer ever came to take a report. I never even received a return phone call.

So when I read the story about John Hartley being arrested last week for peeing in a cup while seated in his car, it made my blood boil.

Someone steals my car and the police ignore it. But when two busybodies report someone peeing in a cup (gasp!) in the privacy of their own vehicle, the cops are on it in a New York minute. Also, don’t you think it’s a little severe that they made Hartley spend the night in jail and post a $27,000 bond?

And please don’t get me started on the undercover cops sitting in the Mustang Club in towels last year looking for people engaged in consensual sex.

What good are our police if they can’t focus on real crime?

Dear Editor:

The GLT in the last several weeks has promoted a victim agenda when it comes to gay marriage. The newest movement to put the measure of gay marriage back on the ballet is to reinstate the vote of the people to have marriage between a man and a woman to be the state law! The GLT has gone out of there way to call those who don’t agree with the gay agenda as HATE mongers. A very intolerant statement! Now your hate and intolerance of others faith or beliefs has called for boycotts, disruption of collection of signatures, or scratching out signatures, at certain places to keep the public from expressing there right to put state policies in the hands and the vote of the people! Some of these actions are extremely childish and embarrassing to have such emotional people in the gay community being out of control and being a negative reflection of the community as a whole! I have found the ignorance of the glt to think that its only the far right Christians that are against gay marriage, when there are all walks of life who don’t agree with the gay marriage agenda, including a majority of the gay community! I and several of my gay friends have signed these petitions and now are even boycotting gay business that advertise in the GLT.. The new movement to make the public aware of the self victimized gay liberal legislatures who have implemented many laws such as SB 777 into public schools without any public knowledge! In that bill it states that any child can use a boy or girls restroom depending on whom they may feel like being! Or the word mom or dad is now band in calif public schools, only the term parent is permitted to protect children of gay parents!! When the right of the people are dictated by gay liberal law makers there is a new disrespect of the gay community. At a time when hate has increased against gays, and tolerance of the gay community is fading is due to the indoctrination of gay views of life on the straight community! Maybe we should spend out time and turn our eyes inward and work on the real issues of the decay of the gay community. Such as the out of control increase in hiv, std’s, drug use, mental and emotional instability. Let’s work on our actions and behaviors and clean up our own act. Then stop playing the victim game and blaming others for are own weakness!
