“Bush Apologizes To Chandler For Anti-Gay Police Incident”
(No, not that Bush… but I could not resist the title)
Pilar Bush, director of the Cayman Islands Tourism Bureau, personally apologized to Aaron Chandler for an police incident this past week. Chandler and his boyfriend were out partying with some girls. They were dancing and having a good time. The boys kissed and were reprimanded by a local policeman for showing public affection. Chandler and his mate shrugged the encountered off and continued dancing. When they kissed again the cop called for backup and they were hauled off to the station.
They were told what they were doing was against the law. One officer even admitted that he thought the laws were stupid but he had to enforce them. Queerty asked it’s readers to email the Cayman Islands Tourism Bureau on May 2nd, when the story first broke. Today we learn that Chandler who is also a gay activist received the apology.
While the Cayman Islands are a British Territory, it does have sovereignty which means that it does not have to abide by British discriminatory laws.
In Pilar Bush’s apology, she acknowledged that the islands get thousands of gay tourist every year and wants to assure all that this was an isolated incident citing, that gays are and have always been welcomed to the Caymans.
