In the Miami Herald, Darran Simon had a wonderful story about a Sunrise cop who gave a Christian conservative group a good ol’ fashioned hassle. The Florida Family Policy Council,
led by the vile James Dobson, claims Sgt. Stephen Allen harassed them during a drive for signatures to support a gay marriage ban. Sarge told them that Jesus never said anything
about homosexuality and that their drive was a waste of time. Another gem
from Allen: “The Bible said you need to obey your governing authority. I am your governing authority and you need to obey me.”

Then he removed the group’s petitions and even had the gall to mock
them by giving Det. Michael Allard a peck on the cheek (photo above).
Okay, probably shouldn’t have done it, but damn, it’s refreshing to
see police, for once, abuse their authority on the side of the oppressed.
An ACLU official told Simon, ‘’If the police officer feels so strongly, then I think they need to take off their uniform, leave and join a peaceful, counterdemonstration.'’
