"Sir, we want you to leave the plane"
"No, i'm boycotting this airport, take me to Milwaukee!"

I don't know all these secret "boycott" signals. I've never boycotted, EVER, and I will never boycott in my life.
 
2007-09-06 1:13:57 PM  
How? From Minneapolis? I guess you drive to O'Hare or Denver to catch your plane. Shouldn't take more than eight or ten hours.
 
2007-09-06 1:17:04 PM  
In other words, don't go there for your little trysts, as the cops are watching.
 
2007-09-06 1:19:43 PM  
I, on the other hand, think they should put up a plaque on his stall.
 
2007-09-06 1:20:22 PM  
They're upset that he got caught?

/I always knew he liked boys.

I'm sure the airport is going to miss having a half-dozen NAMBLA... errrr... ALRA nutjobs flying through there.

airport police who arrested the senator in a men's room sex sting are responsible for weakening private property rights in the West

They have activist judge airport policemen out there?

Just don't take the taxis there if you are carrying a pound of bacon and have a guide dog.

I've been going over this in my mind over and over again. If the guy in the next stall wasn't a cop, but instead a civilian who accepted Craig's advancements, what then? Do you go over to the next stall, get down on your knees and give a BJ? I'm usualy not paying much attention to what is going on in the stalls when I enter a bathroom, but if I saw the soles of a guy's shoes sticking out from under the stall, or went into the stall next to them and saw a guy on his knees, I'm pretty sure I'd know what's going on. How do people get away with this in high traffic restrooms?

We won't miss Larry Craig supporters at the MSP airport.

Don't need you guys here. Enjoy your layover in Detroit. Thanks.

I'm with Three Crooked Squirrels. What's wrong with setting something up in, say, your hotel room? A public bathroom is quite possibly the least romantic setting for getting jiggy.

Since when does romance have anything to do with getting jiggy on a toilet seat? Especially if your there for a quickie. Besides in a hotel room you would have to talk to the person after. Not what you want with illicit sex. Having said that after looking at your profile I could provide some romantic music and a few candles in the local airport comode.

That's a nasty, bad, naughty airport. It deserves the boycott.

Seriously though, fewer retarded hayseeds in the air. The horror.

Well, we already know that some guys used to use two shopping bags to put their feet in at department stores for the deed, so I guess that means that one guy was standing up and one guy was sitting on the toilet with his feet off of the ground. That would seem pretty uncomfortable.

How about...

Two duffel bags to put your legs in so you could be on your knees? Or I suppose one large one.

Two shopping bags and both people put their feet in them, both facing towards the toilet?

That's enough imagining for now.

Apparently. So they're boycotting because they didn't let him go when he whipped it out?

His Republican Senator business card, that is.

The Battle Ground (Washington) based association says airport police who arrested the senator in a men's room sex sting are responsible for weakening private property rights in the West.

Let me make sure I get this... airport police... are weaking property rights? How in the name of Zeus' bunghole do the airport police have anything to do with property rights?

"It's my right as a property owner of this great state to have gay sex in the men's room!"
 
2007-09-06 3:48:00 PM  
Can't wait until the Republican National Convention, when all the media covering the convention have to come into town, through that very airport, and past the "wide-stance" mens room. Think of the photo-ops, and the fun you could have with a picket sign during the convention there!

How do people get away with this in high traffic restrooms?

Many moons ago when I was a security guard for a rather busy mall in San Antonio, I got a report of lewd activity going on in the main restroom. Once I got there, I went in quietly and turned off my radio. I saw that all three stalls were occupied, which seemed odd to me to begin with, I mean, what are the odds that 3 guys are going to have to poop at the same time? Anyway, I reached back and opened the door and let it close to make it sound like I had left. The instance that door closed, all three males hopped off of the toilets and each began performing a sex act on the other with their hands under the stall partitions. Once I knew what was happening, I announced my presence and escorted all 3 downstairs to be permanently barred from the property. I was a Reserve Sheriff's Deputy and knew they were breaking the public lewdness statute of Texas law, which is an arresting offense. We contacted San Antonio police department and had an officer make the location to present our case. SAPD refused to arrest these freaks due to their expectation of privacy in the stalls. I patiently explained that, while thats a valid defense to prosecution in most circumstances, their act was witnessed by me (a peace officer) and was in full view of the general public should anyone have walked in to the bathroom at the time they were playing with each other. The lazy-ass officer simply refused to do what he should have. We sent them away, barred the freaks and then sent our own case to the DA for prosecution.

This would be much more effective if it were a boycott of all public restrooms. It is just too easy to avoid a particular airport, and the effect couldn't possibly noticed. On the other hand, if they boycotted restrooms...

Um... how is enforcing public decency statutes in a public facility considered an infringement of ones' personal property rights?
 
2007-09-06 4:09:55 PM  
This will sure make it difficult for them to make it to their convention next year!

I can't believe that they are saying that the officers "ambushed" him. I mean.....hmmmm....how do you explain that. I guess what they meant was that the officer should have let him go when he asked to leave. Yeah, that must've been it. They're mad because they didn't turn a blind eye. makes total sense

on another note:

DAMN, I can't find a picture of a bathroom stall where all you can see is the feet of the person on the pot and then a paper bag in front of him (presumably with someone standing in it). I fail.

Easy. They'll botcott Airport bathrooms and opt for bus station bathrooms - "nasty, bad, naughty boy" bathrooms.

Well if you aren't sucking cawk in a bathroom stall then you have nothing to be affraid of, or something like that.

Fargo, ND in 4 hours, baby!

The problem with their premise that Craig was targeted because he's a Senator, is that the cop had no way of knowing who was in the stall. As far as the cop was concerned, Craig was just another pervert. It wasn't until Craig was arrested that he flashed his Senate card, trying to use his job for a get out of jail free card. Repugnant moran. And this type of behavior crosses all political stripes, so save the Republican bashing.

You Craig supporters could use a nice hot enema.
 
2007-09-06 5:04:37 PM  
Shiat. Where are all of the OTHER degenerates gonna go to get some smelly man-tail?

I guess the senator has a list, bookmarks on his GPS.
 
2007-09-06 5:27:15 PM  
Has the specific mens room ever been disclosed? As a Minnesotan I think some sort of commemorative plaque should be produced. Maybe some sort of sticker that could be replaced every time the janitors scrape it off.

How about a poem on the stall door?

Once upon a workday dreary, while I was pooping bored and weary,
suddenly there was a creeping, as a senator began a peeping,
through the gap at my crapper door.
Twas only checking and nothing more.

While I sat there quietly crapping, there was a foot a tapping,
tapping at my stall's tiles, having flown a thousand miles,
my neighbor was looking to score.
Twas only a BJ and nothing more.
