Major win in Colorado: A former gay police captain for the Colorado Police Force has been awarded a captain's salary for life after a judge ruled that he was not re-hired because he is gay. The unidentified plaintiff tried to rejoin the force after retiring, but was forced to take a lie detector test, which included a question about his homosexuality. When he answered the question correctly, he was told he could not re-apply. The case also uncovered a hotbed of homophobic activity on the force, which was documented in a 50-page legal report.
