    The statement comes from #Metropolitan #PoliceCommissioner #MarkRowley after #gayrights #activist #PeterTatchell launched a #campaign calling for all #British #policedepartments to #apologize for “past #homophobic #witchhunts,” which continued long after #Britain #decriminalized #private #sexual #acts between #men in 1967.

    — It's a good start now they need to prove they really meant it.

    #PeterTatchell has penned a #letter to #WestMidlands #Police, calling for an #apology for their #history of #homophobic ‘#witchhunts’.

    According to Tatchell, before the full #decriminalisation of #homosexuality in 2003, the police in West Midlands targeted and arrested thousands of #gay and #bisexual #men for #consensual and victimless behavior.
