Straight Firefighters Forced to March in a Gay Parade Say They Were Humiliated

(Fox News) - San Diego firefighters who say they were forced to participate in the city's Gay Pride parade are preparing to sue the city. The four firemen said they did not want to attend — but were ordered to do so by a superior.

The men say they were subjected to "vile sexual taunts" from gay people — and Cybercast News reports they were told by religious protesters that they were going to hell for taking part in the parade.

A religious legal group called The Thomas Moore Law Center has filed paperwork to begin a lawsuit against the city for sexual harassment. The city fire chief — who is a lesbian — says she has apologized to the men and is taking their allegations seriously.
