I have been to a number of straight bars. The occasional fight happens. in some places it is common, and in others it is less. I have spent much more time in gay bars and clubs. I have never seen a fight in a gay place. By fight I mean physical. I have seen a number of fights in straight bars. I know gays are capable of throwing punches, it is just that I have not found it to be as common as straight people.
Then there is the domestic abuse thing. The only time I have heard of gay domestic abuse was with things like springer and the rare cops. I know plenty of straight people who have had issues with abuse. I have to admit that in this case i have not seen the actual abuse most of the time, but I am pretty sure it is not complete BS in most cases.
There just does not seem to be a large amount of violent crime committed by homosexuals. There may be other types of crime like drugs or theft, but it seems that violence is very lacking in the community. I am not complaining, i just wonder why it seems to be.
why do you think they are gay ?
:mrgreen:
They are singing showtunes. What sort of question is that?

Gay women aren't.
Mother of God. Not at all.

I'll just say that whatever graces may be conferred by a certain orientation, if any, placidity is not among them.You sound as though you have a personal experience regarding this. Please do tell.

Duh. Tea Party.I do kind of wonder, given the history of civil rights abuses gays have suffered worldwide throughout hisory, why I have never heard of a gay terrorist group.
Your anecdotes do not match mine.I have been to a number of straight bars. The occasional fight happens. in some places it is common, and in others it is less.

A female officer I worked with years ago was bisexual. We were pretty good friends, at least on the job.
One night I got in for shift briefing and everyone looked upset. Turns out we'd just found out our shiftmate, the female officer in question, had been shot dead in a domestic incident involving her lesbian lover.
Another lesbian officer was said to suffer frequent physical abuse from her domestic partner, but routinely refused to press charges.
That's about all the anecdotes I have on this subject, FWIW. :shrug:
Former. Quite some time ago.
Wow, cool I just started.
Ah. Good luck then. It can be one of the most rewarding professions there is, but also one of the most frustrating, demanding and depressing at times.
Two things to be careful of: the tendency over time to start viewing all strangers in a negative way, "assumed scumbag until proven otherwise".... and be careful to remember it isn't the thin blue line VERSUS everybody else, it is FOR everyone else... "to protect and SERVE". It is surprisingly easy to forget that in the press of events.
Yeah i want to try very hard to never forget that.
