London Police Round Up 100 For Homophobic Hate Crimes

London's Metropolitan Police Service has carried out raids across London to crack down on domestic, homophobic, transphobic, race and other forms of hate crime – and over 100 people have been arrested.
Police focused on offenders who were known to them or who had evaded arrest in the past.
The police crackdown codenamed 'Operation Athena' was carried out to mark Sunday's International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia.
"We retain a relentless commitment to tackling all forms of domestic violence, homophobic, transphobic and other forms of hate crime, whilst continually improving our services to victims and potential victims," explained Acting Detective Superintendent Gerry Campbell.
"Violence in any form is unacceptable. We will continue to proactively identify, arrest and seek the prosecution of violent people."

Joe The Tool Plumber Bashes Gays Again

Joe the tool: "It's just not a lifestyle I want around me personally. For the obvious reason it seems just a little strange and unusual to me.I obviously don’t want my son seeing two men kissing each other. It throws me off."
Joe is worried about his son seeing an act of love while the world worries for the child that is being brought up by a homophobe. This is exactly how prejudices and bigotry is perpetuated, teaching it to children. It is the equivalent of child abuse to teach a child to hate and take advantage of their undeserved privileges.
