Homosexuality Is A Sin, Mayor Says (Fort Lauderdale,FL)

http://www.nbc6.net/news/13667704/detail.html

Comments made by Fort Lauderdale Mayor Jim Naugle, such as: "I don't use the word 'gay.' I use the word 'homosexual.' Most of them aren't gay. They're unhappy," sparked the controversy.

"Homosexuality is a sin but, you know, we all sin," Naugle said.

"What the mayor is really doing, is he is using anti-gay stereotypes to try to justify the purchase of $250,000 outhouses in the beach," said Stratton Pollitzer of Equality Florida.



Naugle is a putz, and should shut the hell up. South Florida has a very large GLBT community and he will be paying the price for his deeds and words.

12. Only in name....
Naugle has been a registered Democrat since he was 18<1>, but he frequently supports Republican candidates.<2> He co-chaired George W. Bush's presidential campaign in 2000 and Jeb Bush's bid for Governor in 1998. In past presidential elections, he supported Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush and Bob Dole— all Republicans. Described as a "renegade democrat" by The Washington Post, he said in 2000 that he votes for the candidate, not just the party. Asked why he never became a Republican, he said that as a non-partisan office holder, he did not see a reason to change, but that he would have to to do "some soul-searching" if he ran for other offices. He even suggested that Bill Clinton should be investigated for rape. <1>

15. Fla's repuke Governor Crist is "openly closeted" so to speak.
He was involved in a gay-sex-for-a-job scandal or something like that involving Krazy Katherine Harris, I think.

21. Naugle is a delusional psychotic AKA Christian
basically he cant help it he has been brainwashed by religious dogma probably all his life.
He should be admitted to an Institution so he can get psychiatric help but we cant do that of course because he is protected under the moniker of religion which means you can be as crazy as you want just so long as its religious crazy.

Only when they finally snap and drown or stone their children, or end up committing mass suicide can their mental illness be addressed.

23. Automated Public Toilets
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 04:22 PM by IanDB1
AUTOMATED PUBLIC TOILETS (APT's)

<snip>

WARNING! Almost all APT's installed in the U.S. are single toilet units with only limited ability to accommodate the public during high use times. Because they are clean and have lavatory fixtures, individuals will remain in them for longer periods then they would when using a PSU. One person can lock out others for 10 - 20 minutes. This can lead to unacceptable queuing and wait-times. After an initial 'pilot test' of single toilet APT's, Atlanta ordered 'quad toilet' APT's for their main MARTA station.

APT procurement cost analysis is often flawed when single toilet APT are cost-compared to traditional multi-stall facilities that accommodate the sanitation needs of many people at once.

...Councilman Richard Conlin voted in favor of acquiring the toilets but now says, "They haven't worked out the way we'd hoped. ... We're going to have to go back to the drawing board." "They've become dens of illegal behavior," ....
Source: 'Seattle's automated public toilets now haven for drugs' Associated Press 10/06/2006

...high-tech public toilets are not as reliable as someone who really needs a restroom would hope... a little observation showed that plenty of people couldn't get the computerized lock to open with their quarters. Other people have had the opposite problem. A bus driver told the newspaper the doors opened on one of his passengers just as she was pulling her pants up.
