   Yes it is:   
      
   quote:   
      
   'A retired couple were questioned at length by police after complaining   
   about a council's gay rights campaign.   
   Two officers arrived at the home of devout Christians Joe and Helen Roberts   
   to 'educate' them out of their belief that homosexuality is wrong.   
   They were interrogated for 80 minutes about 'homophobic' views expressed in   
   a phone call and letter in which the couple asked if Christian literature   
   could be displayed alongside gay rights leaflets.   
   Say their actions were close to a 'hate crime', the officers warned Mr and   
   Mrs Roberts they were 'walking on eggshells'.'   
      
   There's more if you want it, including the local labour MP saying the Old   
   Bill had been 'heavy handed'; how the Lancashire police found time to make   
   the visit even though violent crime has risen in the country by 17 per cent   
   in the last year. The police described the visit as a matter of routine.   
      
   Further on it mentions a female author Lynette Burrows who said on Radio 5   
   Live earlier this month that gays should not be allowed to marry and   
   recieved a visit from the police.

   I think you should have in this case, cunty.
