HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVISTS ATTACKING OUR MORAL LAWS

Does anyone believe that now that the homosexual activists have had their way over the same-sex marriage issue, that they will be satisfied and quietly go away?

Not on your life. Their objective is to fundamentally and permanently restructure Canadian society by forcing it to adapt to their subculture.

The homosexual subculture, according to the homosexual newspaper Capital Xtra (April 7, 2005), is built on "a world defined by erotic pleasure" and activists want absolutely no restrictions placed on this. They want their sexual pleasure whenever and wherever they find it, including in public parks, public washrooms and, in particular, in bathhouses.

According to this same Capital Xtra article, homosexual bathhouses are "… safe, regulated places where gay men meet, socialize and share physical intimacy…" This is a polite way of saying that gay bathhouses are used for anonymous sex. Bathhouses cannot accurately be characterized as "safe" as they are a major source of the increasing incidence of HIV and AIDS in Canada, as well as a host of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).

Homosexual activists regard police raids of their bathhouses as attacks on "gay sexuality". Not that the police have made a habit of raiding the bathhouses operating around the country. The police raided one in Toronto in 1999 at the Bijou pornography theatre, and also raided a lesbian bathhouse in Toronto, called the Pussy Palace in 2000. In Calgary, a police raid took place against a gay bathhouse called Goliath in December 2002. Another raid against a Hamilton bathhouse took place in 2004.

After these raids, the police laid charges for the keeping of a common bawdy house or being a "found-in" a bawdy house, contrary to s. 210 of the Criminal Code. Under the Criminal Code provisions, a bawdy house is defined as a place where prostitution or "acts of indecency" occur. The latter term is undefined in the Code and the activists are planning to argue in court that their consensual sex acts are not "indecent" acts and that, therefore, gay bathhouses are exempt from the bawdy house provisions in the Code.

The bawdy house provisions in the Code also prohibit acts of prostitution from taking place and, because of this, since last January, the provisions are currently being reviewed by a sub-committee of the Justice Committee. (See REALity, March / April, 2005, Legalized Prostitution - Next on the Liberal Agenda, p.9) Homosexual activists are hoping the Committee will recommend the removal of the provisions entirely from the Code.

This Parliamentary review was instigated by lesbian NDP MP, Libby Davis (Vancouver East). The purpose of this review was supposedly to protect prostitutes by providing safe places to operate by making these establishments legal. This review however was just another part of a carefully staged campaign by homosexual activists to have their bathhouses licensed to operate freely without police obstruction.

Some homosexual activists appeared before the Justice sub-committee in Vancouver, on March 29, 2005, making their submission on behalf of Pink Triangle Press, publishers of the homosexual newspaper Capital Xtra, in Toronto and Xtra West in Vancouver in which they proposed that these bathhouses be made legal.

Further, because of homosexual political pressure, politically correct Crown prosecutors in the Toronto Pussy Palace case and in the Calgary bathhouse raid have either withdrawn charges or had the charges stayed (remain on the books but not pursued) on the grounds that there is no substantial likelihood of obtaining a conviction, since the acts may not be contrary to "community standards of tolerance ". On what planet do the provincial Attorney Generals, who instruct the Crown prosecutor, live? The "community standards of tolerance" are supposed to be according to standards of the public as a whole, not those of the homosexual/lesbian community! In this regard, it is significant that the Toronto Crown prosecutor stayed charges against the Toronto men marching nude in the Gay Parade in 2003, contrary to s 174 of the Criminal Code, on the grounds that their nudity was not against community standards of tolerance. A nice precedent for the bawdy house court challenge. (See REALity, September / October, 2004 p. 11)

It is of significance that one of the individuals charged in the Calgary bathhouse raid, Terry Haldane (against whom of course, the police dropped the charges), has now been funded by the ever ready to assist homosexual activists, the federal tax funded, Court Challenges Programme. As a result, he is now bringing a civil suit against the Calgary police for wrongful arrest and malicious prosecution for the charges laid against him after the bathhouse raid. The activists fully expect the liberal courts to throw out the bawdy house offence provision in the Code, as a result of this legal challenge.

How else do homosexuals in Canada achieve their objectives, other than by using the tax payers' money, via the Court Challenges Programme, to provide appointed, unaccountable judges with the opportunity to grant them their every wish?
