Wouldn't want to inconvenience the local wildlife...

Is it April 1 again already?

Sex in public: protected right in Britain.

The same thing happened in Nanaimo, B.C.
A local fish spawning stream was designated for additonal protection by DFO and the local gay community was upset because it was a preferred "stranger sex" stroll. They demanded that an area be fenced off for them if I recall. The issue quickly disappeared.

Where has common sense gone?

Yeh, Victoria has it's own fag forest as well.

They can't have sex indoors like everyone else?

They might as well save their money. Sounds like there's rare wildlife there already.

It's just like the calgary zoo at night haha

"They can't have sex indoors like everyone else?"
Sure! Vancouver's English Bay Bathhouse was notorious for years...

"cutting back the bushes was "discriminating" to homosexual men "
Sounds a little hypocritical, if you get my drift. ;)

Dont'cha just love Google? ;)

Pay for a room like everybody....cheap bastards

Classsic Activist versus Activist action.

Who will win? The homosexual rights activists, or the environmental rights activists?

Can research grants, community projects, and photocopier paper allocations be divided fairly amongst them?

And where do the Lesbians, Bi-sexuals, and poly-gendered stand on this issue?

Just announce plans to build a mosque nearby.

Doggone! Send in the hounds.

Ewwww...Get a room!
Sounds like the wildlife is already there.

Kill them all! God will know his own.

Right then, I guess the good folks of Bristol can now scratch the old adage, "A bird in hand is better than two in the bush."

There is more than one way to take that MarkJ. Way too funny.

Umm... isn't outdoor/public sex illegal?

Sounda a lot like that gay bashing death in Vancouver a few years ago. Seems gays use a section of Stanley Park to troll for sex, and it's not uncommon, apparently, for naked men to be hanging out in the bushes.

I don't condone the killing but I think that gay men have to take some responsibility for their behaviour. It's not Ok to troll parks, naked, looking for sex. Sorry, but it's just not. Get a room, get a bath house, get out of public parks.

Where's a Canadian HRC when the homosexuals need one? In Canada, I guess the aggrieved homosexual community would have just complained to the local HRC and had everything put on hold—all at taxpayer expense.

I’m sick and tired of this pandering to the lowest common denominator (law breaking by a protected group).

Like the Muslims, the gay community uses "lawfare", not to be equal to the rest of us, but to lord it over us. Think of the pictures of full nudity and obscene behaviour in the gay "pride" parade that Kate recently posted. NO other group is allowed to break the law in this manner with this kind of impunity.

Those who have voiced any objections to gay fascism and special treatment by official Canada have been marginalized and ridiculed, e.g., a conservative women's group complained to the Toronto police a few years ago about the public nudity and obscene acts on full public display during the gay "pride" parade and was told to shove off.

The lack of moral fibre, the willingness to be forever "tolerant", and the unwillingness to be "judgemental", by misunderstanding and not protecting the Judeo-Christian virtues on which our democracies were founded and flourished, has brought the West to this sorry pass. I notice that, in general, it has been observant Christians who have been sounding the alarm for the past few decades—and have been loudly branded as troublemakers by the “progressives” who’ve wanted to change our moral “brand”: irresponsibility is fine and I have a right to do whatever I want and someone else—the taxpayer—will pay.

Unfortunately, the general public has fallen for this scam and seems to accept far more readily the depredations of the gay and Muslim communities than the reasonable protests of concerned Christians, who are the canaries in the Canadian mine. Too bad . . . because it’s the observant Christians (and a few others with their blinkers off, like Kate) paying now for their vigilance: soon enough, we’ll all be paying for everyone else’s lack of it.

Oh Oh Canada.

I have a friend who is Sikh.

He tells me nothing gets him more annoyed than when "activists" conflate various disparate groups together e.g., "gays and visible minorities."

As he says, "Please don't lump my visible minority with homosexuals, thank you."

At least they are calling it what it is, {dogging} that is what they act like. Although in the cattle feeding world we call them sweet-asses, and as in this world they also disrupt the whole process and have to be segregated, if not the other, straight cattle will ride them to death, nature is ugly but certian. Some years we will have 40 of these Svends, never gain a pound and you finally have to sell them and take your loss.

Do these Rump Rangers have no shame???
Friggin' disgusting.

Dogging eh...Sheesh !

"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."

This is so wrong.

Pit the two 'minority' groups against each other. Declare the area a shariah zone and provide the Muslim police with weed wackers.

If you'd been in a coma for the past ten years and just woken up, you wouldn't recognize the world. It's just too bizarre.

As an aside, more than 50% of Swedes believe there's going to be a civil war in their lifetime. I wonder why?

Parks Canada can set aside space for the horn-dogs.
The bears/cougars/mtn lions will do the rest.

In Winnipeg it's near the legislature, by the river.

Such a normal healthy life style.

The Rat said: "I think that gay men have to take some responsibility for their behaviour."

Ooooh! What a wicked thing to say about victims of their genes and of rotten people who believe in nasty things like morality and self-control. ! There's a HRC investigator opening a file on you right now, you naughty, naughty person.

:)

We all know where these gay "no-go" areas are, where dangerous (e.g., AIDS, anyone?), illegal activities are allowed to happen with impunity.

Aren't there the same kind of Muslim areas in many cities in Europe right now? (Rhetorical question.) And in a place called Caledonia in our own country?

Except for a few, persecuted souls, the free citizens of the West have been sleeping with thier eyes wide open for decades.

And these ordinary citizen dupes, the majority of Canadians, unfortunately, are now saying--as the persecuted among us have been predicting all along--"How did we get here?"

By averting our eyes, that's how. Stupid us.

Lends a whole new meaning the the Teddy Bear's Picnic song "If you go out in the woods tonight your in for a big surprise. If you go out in the woods tonight you better go in disguise....and so on. I say torch the place and turn in to bald ass grassland no pun intended.

Not that I am an expert on this you understand but "dogging" isn't an exclusively homosexual activity.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogging_(sexual_slang)
however it should be noted that the protests about cutting the bushes came from the gay rights activists. They are breaking the law and should by rights be prosecuted, but you can only imagine the screams of indignation if these buggers were to be charged. They should allow a load of brambles and wild roses to grow in the vicinity. That would dampen their enthusiasm somewhat for the great outdoors.

Fascinating. Not only does the government in this case have to allow illegal acts on public land, but it also has to facilitate? If we take that further, minimum age of consent laws discriminate against pedophiles - an identifiable group. Sharia Law discriminates against women, and children, and well, everyone not muslim.

Perhaps, instead of playing the discrimination card, all of those people who are partaking of activities in this park should buy their own plot of land where they can do whatever the hell they want.

When I read something like this I look forward to the take over of England by the Muslims. They know that those 'dogs' are unclean and will take care of it accordingly. We also know what they think of homosexuality. Why can't those pervs keep it to themselves, then most people wouldn't care, but once again they love to parade it!

"Kill them all! God will know his own."

Nice Bob....

Is it hard to type when you are looking through the holes in your pillowcase?

Hm so I don't think people should be porking each other in parks but here's some food for thought:

As someone mentioned above, there's tons of straight people who go dogging in parks, and in the U.K. it's taken on a sort of national sport status for some people. To attribute this solely to gay people shows most peoples obvious homophobia.

So now the next logical thought is, "well gay people have too much random sex, it's not right", or something along those lines that they've been doing this for decades. Well. I wonder where on earth they could have learned to look for sex wherever they could, strolling for strangers to have sex with, using secret messages or code in public washrooms to signal they want to have some fun....oh that's right, I sort of forgot that gays and lesbians have been persecuted to an outrageous degree over the last century by our western Judeo Christian "values". (I do find it ironic that in Western nations, the revulsion towards homosexuality is so great when in reality Jesus taught love of all people, and yet people have cited upholding Judeo Christian as their true purpose behind discrimination against homosexuals).

The lifestyle of sex with random people, and having sex where they can is an underground lifestyle that was built through intolerance. Today that intolerance has abated greatly, and I think that there is alot more freedom for homosexuals in Canada, but the lifestyle and practices that we call "disgusting" is something we ourselves have created.

Will the need to accommodate all lifestyles/religions/races lead to a new, progressive form of segregation? Junkies-only sidewalks, gay-only parks, Muslim only swimming pools etc.. All publicly supported of course. Anyone not belonging to a protected group will enter such areas at their own risk.

barjebus... it's the gay activists who are crying discrimination.

barjebus - Jesus said to the woman caught in adultery, "Go and sin no more." That doesn't translate to Jesus thinking sodomy is A-OK. Just FYI.

Also, straight society doesn't appear to have the urge to parade its private sexual practices in public, the way far too many homosexuals do. That propensity on the part of the gay activist community is most unattractive, and very intrusive. It doesn't win friends, though it does intimidate people--and the authorities fall for it. Favouritism doesn't win friends either.

Your theory that years of persecution now means that homosexuals are justified in shoving their sex acts in our faces--literally--is hogwash, by your own admission: that's the Old Testament "eye for an eye" dispensation.

Generally, male-male sex has a very different etiquette from male-female sex and even, it seems, female-female sex: there are very few females who'd be willing to be so exposed in a public place. However, if they are, their behaviour's illegal and should be stopped, not accommodated.

Let's stop protecting the illegal activities of certain groups in our society at the expense of the rest of us. barjebus, I'll bet you're a fan of "equity". Why don't you start practising what you preach?

Calgary has something similar that "flairs" up every so often with North Glenmore Park. It's been a well known spot for illicit activity by gay males. An Alderman got some unexpected attention some years ago when he backed into a stall in the parking area - accidently giving a "secret signal" to nearby gays on the prowl.

When the Alderman asked for increased night-time surveillance by Calgary's HAWC helicopter, the gay community shrieked something about being unfairly persecuted. The fact that the issue was about illegal activity in a public area didn't deter the gays from playing their worn-through victim card.

While it might be amusing to contemplate the use of weedwhacking, Agent Orange, controlled burns, napalm strikes, etc., against such sites here in Canada, consider the inevitable response:

[Hinterland Who's Who music]

Once seen as a model of successful adaptation to the Canadian urban environment, the Greater Chutney Ferret is now seriously endangered by habitat loss and the disruption of its mating displays due to misguided Judaeo-Christian teachings.

For more information, contact the Canadian Wildlife Service, your HRC, or the police hate crimes taskforce.

I'm all in favour of equal rights for all but isn't part of equal rights the idea that you are held to account for your actions equally with all other groups?

Why should some groups get an exemption from a law that another group would be jailed for?

Just consider the consequences of a heterosexual male jumping out of a forest looking for sex as a woman strolled by. Seriously. Think jail, DNA data base, Sexual offender list and a lack of employment for the rest of your life. The punishment of Heterosexual men who act badly is extraordinarily severe. Just why do leftard/homosexual activists believe Homosexuals are above the same laws?

Equal means equal - not getting all the benefit but none of the accountability.

@lookout:

Very true, but did he ever rant and rave about how vile or disgusting the prostitute's habits were? Did he play up the evils of prostitution to his followers, and spawn contempt for her among his disciples? Hardly, yet that's how many of our modern day christian teachers behave.

Just to point out, I'm not saying that homosexual people have a right to have sex or commit sex acts in public. I just think that very few people comprehend the motivation behind this, and quite often end up coming to ridiculous conclusions, often tinged with their own stereotypes spawned by their homophobia.

As to their gay pride parades and flaunting themselves at us, I also don't appreciate that in my streets. However, when you consider the fact that it was actually illegal in countries like Russia as late as 1991, where you could be arrested and tortured for it, and in some countries killed, I think it's their right for the time being to celebrate their hard-won right to their own sexual lifestyle. We constantly celebrate democracy in this nation, as does our southern neighbor; we glorify it in film, in parades, in holiday's, etc.. Why do we do that? Because our forefathers came from persecution under monarchs, despots, dictators, and now that we have achieved freedom, we wish to celebrate.

Obviously the two don't equate, but you get where I'm going with it I think.

Anyone know when the Muslim demonstrations start? After all "doggy" derived from dog is a bit No-No from what I understand.

Anyway they should just turn the situation over to their Muslim constables to resolve the problem.

barjebus, I'm glad you agree that democracy and gay rights to obscene displays of public sex aren't equal. At least that’s settled!

I appreciate your civil tone but I still think you're quite off base on this. Jesus preached love but not sexual licence. Wherever He went, He tried to save people from such addictions.

Bursting your “compassion” bubble, I definitely detect an anti-Christian bias in what you say.

Food for thought, barjebus: I’m an observant Christian (I actually have gay friends), and I believe I now have fewer rights than the gay activists in this country. With the HRCs and every other politically correct public (e.g., schools, legislatures, courts) and private (e.g., banks, which prosper, big time, universities, and mainline Protestant churches) institution on their side, gay activists are free to say any nasty thing they want about their opponents, as well as break the law by parading around buck naked, and even performing public sex acts, with impunity. Marginalization in their communities? Threat of an HRC interrogation, “trial”, and punishment? Loss of their jobs and/or sanctions/re-education? Not on your life.

But, barjebus, all that could happen to me for simply saying what I've said here. As you see, I use a pseudonym. Public debate on this issue is no longer an option for me and others, unless we wish to be pilloried, including the possible loss of our jobs.

As a person obviously concerned about “equality” (a very unequal proposition these days), you should be concerned with the very serious loss of my (and other observant Christians’) “guaranteed Charter rights” to freedom of belief and expression. However, as it seems to have passed you by that our rights have been deep sixed by the ascendancy of the homosexual licence, I doubt that you’ve given a thought to the consequences of your advocacy.

These totalitarian consequences, perhaps unintended—but not on the part of the homosexual activists and their fellow jackboots, who revel in their power—are both very real and very nasty. (To all those who say, “How can granting rights to homosexuals harm anyone else or society as a whole?”: this is one—and only one—way how.)

As a person who seems to champion the “turn the other cheek” (whoops!) philosophy, have you noticed that this irenic idea is about as foreign to the homosexual activists’ agenda as a mosquito avoiding an exposed bottom?

I believe you’re either naïve or disingenuous. If the former, please try to think more carefully and multi-dimensionally. If the latter, please try to think more honestly.

Lookout,

“How can granting rights to homosexuals harm anyone else or society as a whole?”: this is one—and only one—way how.)

It's not the granting of rights to homosexuals that is the problem, it's the granting of extraordinary powers and privileges (including being above the law on many issues) not available to others that is the problem. It's the power to oppress dissent using unaccountable courts using self-granted, fictitious "rights" which are at issue.

If they had nothing more or less than equal rights, there would be no issue.

barjebus

The "right" to flaunt the law is not freedom but anarchy. You need to be aware of the difference.

For the law to be just it needs to be applied equally and without bias. That means no one is either above or below the law - regardless of what the Russians where up to.

In classical terms, the law is supposed to be blind as the famous statue illustrates.

Warwick, I agree with you, but only in principle.
However, if one understands the agenda and tactics of both the radical feminists and gay activists who masterminded them, e.g., abortion and marriage rights, the end was never mere "equality" but power and payback, so there would be, as Henry VIII says in "A Man for All Seasons", "NO OPPOSITION".
Funny that: notice how any opponents of either the feminist or gay agenda in Canada are being treated by the jackboots of the state in much the same way as Thomas More was—with utter disdain and both the threat of severe punishment and its actuality (HRCs).

Here. In Canada. I'm not making this up.

Double post: I hit the POST button prematurely for the first one and the CANCEL button was obviously hit too late. Sorry.

Ok. That's it. This has gone far enough. Not all gay people do this. Straight people shag in parks too. The gay "community" does not represent everyone who is gay. I am gay and I think these demands in Bristol are just plain ridiculous. Somebody needs to get a grip over in England, because the circus of idiocy has come to town and the tickets are selling like crazy.

I think the funniest thing that could happen would be for gay activists and the islamic community to get together on some issues...apparently they are both equally absurdly demanding of recognition and protection! Meanwhile some gay activists abuse the same laws as the islamists, without realizing that islam would be the first group to hack off their heads!

Here's some quotes for their future social alliance: "queer islamists for jihad" or better still "free clitoral ablation for lesbians at your local mosque".
This whole "gimme whatever I ask for" silliness in Western Civilization has to stop somewhere.

Michael,

"Not all gay people do this. Straight people shag in parks too."

You miss the point. You are correct insofar as you state that straight people misbehave, too.

The part which is at issue here is that only radical activists in the leftard community (gay lobbyists, radical feminists, etc.) would have the gall to claim that if the law is interfering with their illegal behaviour it's the cops fault and they should stop enforcing the law.

Try that one if you hold up a bank…

The bottom line is that if it were heterosexuals doing this there would be no hesitation to act on behalf of the police. The police aren't afraid of non-existent radical heterosexuals. It's the idea that professional whiners feel the right to disregard laws, put themselves above everyone else and claim special treatment that is objectionable.

No one has stated that only homosexuals act badly or that every homosexual acts badly.

Michael, I appreciate hearing from you. Many thanks for your common sense remarks.

Not all gay people do this. Straight people shag in parks too.

Sex in public outdoor places is just a bad idea, period, whether it's gays or straights doing it.

Just think of the pine needle wounds, sand in the buttcracks, mosquito bites on the nether regions and all that wasted seed on the ground that'll never grow into anything florally beautiful or edible.

The answer too this dilemma is very simple. Just declare the gays rare wildlife. Rabbits breed outside as well as most feral species. The bird watchers & others can observe the wild species in there natural surroundings. After all they don't have to watch the dogging & the gays should not protest if this is there Natural habitat for mating. I Believe its Speciaphobia to not have wild life as an inclusive part of this eco-system. Only true bigots would deprive the world of Tran -speciation, or let the wild life out of the bird gage, or dog house as may be.

Dog day afternoons, now has a new meaning to me.

Hey Michael, do you have a nice pair of Bristols?

"Not all gay people do this. Straight people shag in parks too."

As one who fondly remembers going up to the bluffs to watch the "submarine races" or parking at Blueberry Hill (every town had one), I don't recall any straight people being up in arms when the town decided to put up street lights in those areas.

Oh and btw, all the activity was usually behind fogged up windows in the back seat. mosquitos in northern Ontario can put a damper on l'amourie real quick.

Whilst house hunting I lived in an Apartment, we had only one PARK in the area. I noticed something was amiss the first time I took Sir Wine Alot (dog) for a walk, only men were on the trails and there appeared to be men having sex every where. I promptly left the trail and called the cops, well they showed up and tell me that they are working on the problem and then they take a picture of my license plate (harrassment to silence me). The next time I visited the park it's the same thing male prostitutes servicing what appeared to be married men in the park (mini vans abounded). The public has been complaining loudly for years, and the message from the local government is: Hands off it belongs to the gay community, families, dogs and people out for a stroll either put up with the filth taking place in public or go to another park outside the area. Now if these prostitutes had of been female whooing married or single men they would of been arrested in minutes.

The gay community is allowed to partake of public sex because the police turn a blind eye to it out of Political Correctness. On a side note a Deputy Minister got caught in said Park dropping his drawers on one of the trails, the dog walker neither gay or aware of the "Special treatment" restrained the man and pressed charges. The Crown reluctently persued the issue because said gent wouldn't let the issue rest. In the end the Crown bought the DM's excuse that he was going to pee. Sure on a public path he whips out his penis, yea right. He was transfered into another Federal Job out west.

Moral of the story, the cops allow public sex if it's gay sex but not hetrosex.

What started this whole 'homophobia', special status, and all that crap in the first place was when the public in a S. Ont. city (those were the good ol' days) flatly refused to give in to the demands of a homosexual group who wanted to have sex in the parks. Big uproar at the time.
Then the activists revved it up by complaining about the big, bad boys in blue raiding their bathhouses in Toronto.
Then their public relations branch out-yelled, out-complained and out-smarted the other 95% of society. They've won, if worrying constantly about AIDS is a win-win situation.
They reminded me at the time of a needy, greedy 3-year old who believes throwing tantrums will get him his way. It usually works, unless the parent has the sense to throw a pan of cold water over him.
Maybe the parks could just have the sprinklers on at night.

"Umm... isn't outdoor/public sex illegal?"

Silly rabbit! Laws are for straights!

Only the gay lobby could take such an idiotically simple issue and cry "discrimination". If they really wanted to be treated "equally", then they should get busted along with the straights for indecent exposure or performing lewd acts in public.

Of course anybody who supports the bush trimming (heh) must be a blatant homophobe. And only the morons on the left could support the cry of homophobia or discrimination in this issue.

Amazing.

"Straight people shag in parks too"

Yes, but we don't encourage it because it's "cultural", when they get busted we laugh and say they should have known better.
Sure, there may have been an excuse for hidden sex when they were persecuted, but those days are long gone. For cryin' out loud, they have a parade where they shove it in your face. Well, not my face, because i'm miles and miles away.
