Why? It's a valid question.
Or are we no longer allowed to ask questions about "contraversial" topics?
Do you think that gay policemen are overreacting/looking for trouble or not?
Yes or no?
Simple as that.
A statement is a formulation of an opinion, and as such that opinion can be deemed prejudiced, but a question is a request for an opinion, and therefore although the answers can be prejudice, the question itself cannot.
For instance, the question "are people making the holocaust up?" is not anti semetic, but an answer of "too right, it didn't happen" could be considered an anti semetic answer.
As I've said, no patrolling officers should wear jewelery for their own safety.
This is a matter of gender descrimination, not sexuality descrimination, as homosexual women are able to wear earings still.
Now, if some homosexual men in the force feel that they are being descriminated against because they can't wear their earings, then why claim it's gays being descriminated against when hetrosexual earing wearing male officers are also being denied the ability to wear them too?
