While I was frolicking at the Filth2Go Beach House <\/em><\/strong>in Provincetown, a gay man was being arrested at the beach in Queens, New York.\u00a0 Apparently Jacob Riis Park <\/em>is a popular place for gays who can’t make it to Ptown or Fire Island.\u00a0 According to reports, Krys Fox <\/strong>was wearing only a towel while taking photos of a friend (allegedly, his bathing suit was drying in the sun).\u00a0 At one point, his towel accidentally dropped. \u00a0Fox says, “I just didn’t wrap my towel around my waist tight enough and it suddenly slipped down and I literally got sent to jail for it.”<\/p>\n

However Sgt. David Somma <\/strong>of the US Park Police <\/em>says that Fox was “standing there fully nude taking pictures of his friend – officers observed him for a minute or two standing there.\u00a0 They walked over to him, asked him to put his towel back around his waist or get dressed, and he refused.\u00a0 They asked him again.\u00a0 They asked if he would walk with officers to another group of gentlemen getting tickets for urinating in public.\u00a0 He refused.”\u00a0 The police were going to issue him a ticket, but Fox failed to produce any ID (he lost it at NYC Pride<\/em>).\u00a0 Somma continues, “He refused to sit down on the beach and put a towel on himself.\u00a0 The most he would have received was a summons for public nudity, but he refused to cooperate, became combative, making a nuisance of himself, drawing attention to himself.\u00a0 So he was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.”\u00a0 But Fox wasn’t just arrested – he was physically carried off the beach by a phalanx of no fewer than 11 policemen.\u00a0 Once they got to the edge of the beach, they laid him on the sand, cuffed him, hoisted him up, and put him in the back of the squad car while Fox cried, “Help me!”\u00a0 Although I’m sure laws were broken, did it really require 11 cops?\u00a0 It seems, dare I say, like overkill.\u00a0 Judge for yourself\u00a0on BillyMasters.com<\/a><\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
