The interview with the head of the Massachusetts highway patrol was published somewhere on the Web, but I don't remember where. I couldn't find it again after I looked for it. The highway patrol guy said that his officers would continue to enforce state laws, but they would no longer hide out in the woods to catch cocksuckers. A triumph of good sense, it seems to me. I've never really understood the need to suppress fellatio so long as it's discreet.

I am now confused about what happened in the Medina case. It sounded like a supervisor encouraged his subordinates to fag-bash, but the fag in question objected. Courts flip-flopped up the line to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which held that homosexuality is not gender in any legal sense.

Did the 9th Circuit hold that Medina should have sought other relief? Perhaps he should cruise the rest areas in Massachusetts. It's become a lot safer now that you won't trip over cops on your way to getting your nut off.
