San Diego Firefighters Win Damages for Gay Harassment


This is just ridiculous even on a day that we get to have freedom to express how we feel and who we are this kind of stuff happens. (ht) to my friend Angel from Elle magazine for the news. Four firefighters in San Diego who said they were sexually harassed during a forced participation in the 2007 LGBT pride parade there were awarded a total of $34,300 in damages by a jury. The city said it will appeal the verdict.
The men "said they were subjected to sexually charged conduct and lewd comments while riding in a fire engine" during the event that they were ordered to participate in, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
