March bonus
Department of weird priorities:
Police Scotland is paying its officers to take part in Pride parades at the same time as it is cutting back on fighting crime and scores of staff are leaving. The revelation was described as “setting a dangerous precedent” for the under-fire force which is grappling with financial issues.
Cops are being encouraged to represent the service at LGBTI events in exchange of either pay or a day off in lieu. It comes as cuts see some communities without a local bobbie to deal with issues.
Dealing with crime is a lower priority for the police than marching in Pride parades.
Just Pride, mind you. Not any other kind of march. Nobody else matters the way the People of Pride matter. Not women, not workers, not migrants, not people of color, not the unemployed, not people with disabilities – none of them matter as much as teenagers who call themselves “queer”.
A number of whom are straight and non-trans. The need to be special is driving a lot.
Ya that was my point. Calling oneself “queer” is the freeway to Being Special. Narcissism and fakery all the way down.
It doesn’t take any real effort either. All this demand for special treatment and respect, with nothing other than self declaration to offer. “I’m (blah blah), and you are required to capitulate.”
Why.
Meanwhile, their colleagues down in London have failed to so much as identify a single burglary suspect in THREE YEARS.
