Reminder: 40 others were arrested in Craig bathroom sting
http://www.click2houston.com/news/14008460/detail.html

snip:

Airport police reports obtained by The Associated Press gave strikingly similar accounts of the events that led to the 41 arrests officers made for alleged lewd conduct in public restrooms in the main terminal of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport during the May-August sting.

snip:

The 40 others caught up in the sting, according to the police reports, included airport and airline employees, an account executive with Revlon, an IT consultant for Ernst & Young, a 3M executive and a Lands End employee.

snip:

The charges ranged from misdemeanors such as loitering, disorderly conduct and indecent exposure, to gross misdemeanors such as interference with privacy. Some of the suspects denied to police that they were after sex, others admitted it. Most were cooperative with police.

snip:

One even told the arresting officer - Karsnia, the same officer who arrested Craig - "Thank you for being respectful, sir."

3. After a while, the room where the perps were taken looked like a GOP convention.

5. The other 40 were just collateral damage.
The whole thing was a setup to get Craig in case he came through Minneapolis.

8. Whatever flavor you are . . .
restrooms are for excretion and handwashing, period.

So many people busted, no wonder I cannot stand public restrooms.

9. So, are the availability and recognition signals nation-wide and well known?
Playing footsie under the stalls, waving hands, whatever ....

10. Someone should ask Craig
If he thinks the other 40 people should get to withdraw their pleas as well. And will he help pay for lawyers for those who can't afford one of their own?

11. Well then, I propose that this
particular restroom should have a plaque over the door - "Herein resides the Craig Memorial Men's Room Commode"
