Craig's resigning
My favorite part of the article is this last part: QUOTE Craig also was an opponent of expanding the rights of gay Americans, a stance that drew charges of hypocrisy from gay rights advocates after his arrest became public. He has supported a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage and opposed extending a federal hate-crime law to cover violent acts based on a victim's sexual orientation.

I think it depends on the situation. If the cops were able to prove that Craig was going to have sex in public, that would be sufficient grounds for arrest. As it stands, the officer could not prove that Craig wanted to have public sex. For all he knows, he could have intended to take the officer someplace private. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM) Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!
