As I posted earlier, I would care.

If the Manchester police had issued a similar warning, say when it was the cities gay Mardi Gras in August, I would still think this over sensitive approach is wrong. Everyone should be equal before the law.

Positive discrimination stinks, and very often causes more trouble that it intended to help, because of the inevitable, justified backlash.
