More than 150 Christians showed up at the San Antonio City Council meeting to protest last month's appearance by Police Chief William McManus as grand marshal in a homosexual pride parade.

A conservative radio talk-show host says Christians throughout San Antonio will continue putting pressure on that city's police chief in an effort to discourage him from promoting the homosexual agenda.

Last week, more than 150 Christians showed up at the San Antonio City Council meeting to protest last month's appearance by Police Chief William McManus as grand marshal in a homosexual pride parade. (See related article) Chief McManus, who is not homosexual, has said he wants to strengthen ties between the police department and those living so-called "alternative lifestyles."

Adam McManus, who is not related to the police chief, hosts a daily show on San Antonio radio station KSLR. He says Chief McManus must stop catering to homosexuals -- and wonders if the chief will uphold public decency laws when homosexuals are involved.

"I made the case that our boys and girls look up to the cops as role models -- and rightly so," says the radio host. "The cops, more than most, understand the difference between right and wrong. The cops get the bad guys; the cops uphold justice."

McManus notes that the chief has made it a priority to build relationships between homosexuals in other cities where he has served. Toward that end, evidently, all San Antonio police officers are being required this week to take sensitivity training for homosexuals. The radio talk-show host is curious if the department or city officials plan to treat the issue of "sensitivity" equally.

"I wonder when are they going to have sensitivity training ... about Christians who are legitimately offended and outraged that the top law enforcement official in the Alamo City is endorsing a behavior that is unnatural, immoral, and unhealthy," says Adam McManus.

Media reports said nearly 40 homosexual men and women turned out for the city council meeting last week.

May God bless and strengthen the Christians of San Antonio as they stand as witnesses to the truth and hold their leaders accountable (which blesses us all.)
