[quote:Bebe 44664494:MV8yNTcyMTQ2XzQ0NzY0NTI0XzczM0VFQjgz] I' m not sure that protecting crowds etc as a police function for citizens is somehow approving of the gay lifestyle. Different than a nurse involved literally in an abortion. Anyway, blessed are the persecuted for Zhis nsme's sake, their reward WILL be great. It's all about intent. [/quote]

A Salt Lake City police officer has been placed on leave after refusing an assignment to work at a gay pride parade.
"We don't tolerate bias and bigotry in the department, and assignments are assignments ... To allow personal opinion to enter into whether an officer will take a post is not something that can be tolerated in a police department," Jones told KSL.
Talk.. about pressure to accept it or else.
