Public parks are just that. They are available to the public, including homosexuals. What is not acceptable, however, is activity that should go on in the privacy of a home, not in a public facility. Wilson is concerned about the potential dangers for children who use the park. Parents should not be afraid to send their children to the park, nor should they feel uneasy about going themselves.
Parks are one of our most precious public assets.
There is nothing more delightful than to see the use of the Badin park along the lake. On warm days children are swimming in a roped off area, women sunbath, men fish off the grassy banks. The parks in each of our towns and cities should be safe and quiet respites for families. Richfield wants a family atmosphere in its park and it cannot be a haven for illegal activity.
