Bisexual Officer Wins Lawsuit

[Brian]

Some of you might have already seen this news story from back in February about the bisexual NY Police Officer who endured harrassment after an Internal Affairs Department search of his home computer revealed visits to several gay sites, and effectively "outted" him. It's too bad that shit like that still happens.

But it is nice to see a person in a news story actually identified as "bisexual" consistently - so many times reporters and writers refer to a person as "gay" when they are in fact bisexual, as if the term "bisexual" will be too confusing to the reader or something.

i agree, it really is sad to see or hear of ANYBODY being mistreated, or abused, or any other type of humiliation just because they are different from "the norm" i have a motto i try to live by, "judge a person by whats in thier head, not in their bed" i heard this statment years ago, and i loved it so much i "adopted" it as my golden rule

Good to hear that the newspapers are respecting his identity.
