But Mr Cunningham, who is also a spokesman on homosexual issues for the Association of Chief Police Officers, argues that offenders should only be prosecuted as a last resort because of the potential impact on their lives of making their activities public.
Spokesman on homosexual issuesf for the Association of Chief Police Officers, whatever next?

I always thought that there were laws about public lewdness. I would be taking the matter above the head of this police officer if I had witnessed this act whilst walking in a public place...........with or without my children.
It makes no difference to me that it was two men involved either! I would be just as disgusted if it were a man and woman or two women.

I would've told her to take her camera the next time, take a snap and then pass that to the police. It hangs on what the chaps in question were doing, and what the police could do in terms of prosecuting surely?
I mean, if the police don't send officers round when your burgled, what are the chances of them sending someone when...
...I've just seen the origins of a really dirty joke there.

Why not highlight a different part of the same article?
"Chief Inspector Jon Bullas said: 'What this lady and her daughter had to endure is shocking to say the least. I am aware that police officers were at the location within 20 minutes but could not find the two men described.
'We are continuing to patrol this area and need to make clear that this sort of activity will not be tolerated.
'The lady was given advice by an officer to use a different route but I would like to emphasise that the path is not a no-go area. "
No public area in the UK should be a no go area, in my opinion. If people don't want to be caught with their pants down, keep them up or face the consequences

I've never understood why so many gay guys go for outdoor stuff... It's really vile.
Bear in mind there's not that much police can really do about this sort of thing though - the participants fled pretty sharpish in this case, and once they've pulled their trousers up they look pretty ordinary (plus depending on what... ahem.... angle the women saw them at she may not have seen their faces. Or at least not the faces on their head.) The best they can do is make sure it's 'contained' to one area and try to catch people within that area, which are quite hard to do simultaneously.
I imagine she was advised to use a different route mainly because the area is a known cruising ground and there's not that much the police can do. Not -as implied by AOG - that the police were somehow leaping to their defence.

In response to Gromits link this couple were drunk on a sunlounger on a beach and had already been warned!
Try that on Bournmouth beach and see what happens.
I'm not actually sure that it's necessarilly illegal - I think the laws a bit messy in this regard.

Note at the very bottom (excuse pun) the government backed down over making sex in a public place illegal outright

But jake, that says 'private place' - it sounds as if they were thinking of incidents that neighbours could see in your garden or through open curtains. If you're on private property, I think the correct answer is to tell others to stop snooping. The idea, I think, was that the government could simply outlaw any sex that could be seen, but decided for this reason not to do so.
Yes there is a law in place Daff but gays don't care. They think it is there god given right to do this.
Here in MK a lot of the nice walks are ruined by the local gay population trawling the car parks and wooded areas. You should hear the abuse that you get if you interupt them.
The police do nothing simply because they don't want to get sued.
I'm for gay rights but to be honest they take it to far.
Their favorite chant says it all about them really."We're here, we're queer, get used to it."

But if we all had the same attitude to sex as Banobo chimps do I don't think we would have half as many mental hang-ups.

No perhaps not, but then how many females would find it safe to walk the streets?

Wasn't it not the spokesman for the A of CPOs that said this?
offenders should only be prosecuted as a last resort because of the potential impact on their lives of making their activities public.
If that is not leaping to their defence?

would've told her to take her camera the next time, take a snap and then pass that to the police.
They would have then arrested her forthwith and charged her with producing pornographic images plus interfering with their private activitives and infringing on their human rights.

Not really.... He's just saying the police should avoid publicly 'outing' people.
That's pretty ludicrous when said individuals are breaking the law, but Cunningham's just making an argument. He doesn't actually have anything to do with this case. And bear in mind there'll be an inevitable counter argument. The fact that he's saying this doesn't say anything about the police officers on the ground (like CI Bullas).

True. There's a section of the gay community (in fact pretty much the whole 'scene'...) which is really, really sleazy.
