Gay snub firefighters disciplined

Edited on Thu Aug-31-06 10:13 AM by Dont_Bogart_the_Pret

I read this today on BBC News

snip
"Fire chiefs said community safety was a core responsibility
Nine firefighters who refused to offer safety advice to people attending a gay pride march have been disciplined."

snip
A spokesman said: "The nine now accept that they should have performed their duties. Their refusal was a fundamental breach of their core responsibilities."

You know them gay people don't need to learn to fight fires...:mad: just burn :sarcasm:

sorry....late with link to story
