A US gay couple arrested on assault charges say they were denied trousers for a day after being told “faggots don’t deserve to wear pants in jail”.

Jonathan Simcox and Steven Ondo of Ohio told Cleveland’s FOX8 network they were suing police officers for use of “excessive force and undisguised prejudice” during their arrest.

he couple was arrested and released. A week later, they say police arrived at their home late at night to detain them on assault charges relating to that incident.

The gay men say at the time they were only wearing t-shirts and underwear.

Simcox’s brother, who was present at the scene, asked if he could bring their clothes was allegedly told: “You can go get them shoes, but faggots don’t deserve to wear pants in jail.”

1. Cleveland Police did this. Scum.

And yet we will not see multiple threads castigating these Cops, oh, no. It's not like they destroyed a piece of cloth or something really, really awful like that.
I wonder if God Hates Flags?
