York County parks sex sting citations listed

Why did they lump the guys who were only charged with loitering in with the pervs? That makes them look bad. And isn't loitering what you do in a park? I mean, you just hang around.

Eric has to sit on the computer to quote the Bible because everyone has been slamming their doors in his face!! lol

Luke 6:21-22 Blessed are you when men hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. "Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their fathers treated the prophets.

Mark 13:13 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.

jesus christ eric. uh-oh i think that should be enough to put him over the edge i used the lords name in vain, now eric can write the whole bible from front to back on the blog and just get it over with, at which time he can take drastic action to meet his maker early. by the way i heard there wasn't a shortage of nuts for the squirrels

Jude 1:22,23 Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.

If you want respect, equal treatment, rights, then you behave like civilized human beings, not animals. You said it yourself, if it were hetero teen we could blame it on hormones out of control, what's these guys excuses?? Are you really saying that if you are gay you have no self control? That's a little harsh on your own kind, isn't it??

Hey DUMBASS the YDR does print names of heterosexuals that are arrested for solicitation and prostitution along with people arrested for drug dealing/possession and DUI's and many other crimes. SO if the YDR did not print their names it wouldn't be fair to the ones the print for other crimes. SO GET OVER YOUR SELF.
I’d be willing to bet about half of the guys arrested are married and have kids.

They have the legal right to print the names,isnt
that Wonderful! Oh... how I love it when people
quote the constitution and want rights,but try to
deny that right to others.GOOD JOB YDR!

Mr "Heterosexual rights".. Another thing that is wrong with homosexuals is, all your little clubs support raping boys isnt true that one of there quotes are "get them before there eight or it is too late?".. Or how about one of your kind saying.. "You cant protect your boys, we'll get them in the bathrooms, in 'the parks', in there social groups, at the movies, malls, and in there youth groups.. Now if you aren't after little boys an your just a lover of men.. Gays are the reason for the outbreak of aids an stds.. its also fact that a gay man has more than 100 partners.. I have a gay cousin an my heart is hurt for him he was abused as a child by his father an we all know why he is this way. To bad he'll never have children or a wife to come home too. Being gay also destroys your life.. an I think it is a mental disorder

hey knucklehead, they were'nt lured by 'evil cops'. Read the article. If you think this is OK then you're sick.

Of the 80 men listed, more than 70 were charged with "disorderly conduct," most along with either indecent exposure or obscene behavior. The last 6, however, were charged with loitering, defined by dictionary.com as

<quoted text>
Legal Dictionary
Main Entry: loi·ter
Pronunciation:'loi-t&r
Function: intransitive verb
: to remain in or hang around an area for no obvious purpose; specifically : to linger aimlessly for the purpose of committing a crime loitering on school grounds

Why should someone be arrested for "hanging around an area for no obvious purpose" when so many others do the same? After all, what is the purpose of a public park? Wikipedia says

<quote text>
A park is a protected area, in its natural or semi-natural state or planted, and set aside for human recreation and enjoyment.

Note I am neither advocating nor condoning the actions of the first 74 men, as they were charged, as previously mentioned, with disorderly conduct, most with at least one other charge. The last six, however, have been lumped in with seventy-four criminals when they themselves may have merely been walking around enjoying God's creation. When someone is going around to merely look at the environment, would it look like he has a specific purpose?
How do you LOITER at a PUBLIC PARK?

I forgot what I was gonna say,oops.. gotta go,
have an appointment, Im going to the park,see ya
when you get there!

Welcome back to Nazi Germany. Use your brains for half a second these guys were cruising they weren't having sex on the see-saw. Some evil cop lured them somewhere and slapped cuffs on them. Not as sordid as it sounds, except when you think about government officials trying to stop homosexual activity. Another case of government prying its way into our private lives. And yes I believe you can be private in a public park.

Keep that stuff at your house. It is a public park. You deserve to go to jail.

something doesn't add up...80 arrests/citations etc. not one park complaint? not one park guest propositioned for sex? seems like a ranger is having a good time! can you say entrapment?

i would have to agree on the entrapment part,these guys "officers of the law" dont state how they walk around and grab themselves and make gestures that they wanna "DO YOU" need to get some guys together and tape them in there acts while trying to get ya to follow the "RATS" into the woods/restrooms.then pop that up in court and see what they have to say for themselves then.ENTRAPMENT OR A PETIFILE.....
