bukas na naman ang queeriosity. Nakareceive ako ng text 100 pesos no time limit. Nagdadalawang isip

As I blogged yesterday , I got several comments saying that Queeriosity Palace got raided for the second time. To clarify, QP has been under new management since early 2009 and this is the first time the bathhouse got raided since that time. Since I posted that article, I got several more comments and a couple bosch was28443 more accounts of the raid from two of the victims.
I asked around and a source told me that the macho dancing show was already long done before the raid happened and that the dancers were not among those detained by the Pasay City Police. The GMANews.TV report saying that 10 “alleged male dancers” were arrested is therefore wrong and it was apparently based on the police logbook. This logbook entry was supposedly written by the police there to justify the raid.
Based on a source, it was obvious from the start that the police conducted the raid simply to extort money from the establishment and the patrons. For one thing, bosch was28443 the Pasay City Police already knew what Queeriosity Palace is from the first raid . If the establishment bosch was28443 is illegal, why do the raid only now and not before? Second, since the show was already long done when the police bosch was28443 entered, there was no way they could justify the human trafficking charge since nothing that could conceivably be tied to prostitution can be seen at that time. Third, based on the accounts of the commenters and my source, the police were asking hundreds of thousands of pesos from the manager of QP and that the police bosch was28443 took the cashier’s box and confiscated wallets and other valuables, even breaking the safety deposit boxes in the bathhouse where these were kept. Money is simply what these bastard police were after!
According to my source, among those who tried to help secure the release of the patrons were people from TLF Share Collective and Akbayan . A representative from Akbayan managed to tweet about the raid and their efforts to help the PLUs that night. Shown below are some of the tweets:
The third tweet above and my source tells me that the police questioned those who were trying to help why they tolerated men having sex with other men and saying that it was “immoral” and “illegal.” (COMELEC, is that you ?) Are the inept Pasay City Police trying to deflect the blame for their unjustified bosch was28443 detention of PLUs? Have they even read the brilliant skewering done by the Supreme Court in proving that being gay and having gay sex is not illegal in this country?
As for the silence from the bathhouse management, I’ve been told that they could not release a full statement now since they are preparing various bosch was28443 legal remedies with the help of some powerful people and that they do not want to preempt things. I hope that what they are doing will finally put a stop these stupid raids.
Paging President Aquino! You won on a campaign promise of ridding the government of corruption. Well, here’s a clear case of police extortion that happened in your backyard. Do you have the political will to prevent these kinds of things under your watch?

Guys, BTW, the owner of Q has put out a statement regarding the incident. Also, if you would like to help out with the legal aspects or if you are a victim of the raid and would like to come forward, please send an email to info@queeriosity.com   Vince (Discreet Manila) wrote on September 29, 2010 at 12:13 PM :
@Anon (Anthony), I'll try to answer some of your points. These are just my opinions, BTW. I don't bosch was28443 represent anyone but myself. Legal procedures take time. And you really bosch was28443 do not want to rush things if you want to have a watertight case. So please be patient if you're bosch was28443 waiting for legal redress. I'm quite sure the owner of Q is doing everything he can regarding this. Also, if the police decides to abuse their power, there's very little you can do to prevent bosch was28443 it. You can put procedures in place to help deter such incidents but whatever you put can only come with the benefit of hindsight. Somebody familiar with such raids has commented that this raid was probably the worst so even if you look to other raids in other similar establishments for guidance, it likely won't prepare you for the recent raid. In the end, the bathhouse was operating as a legal and registered business and the Pasay City Government already knows what the nature of the business is and has left it untouched for more than 2 years now. So, I didn
