Hellooooooo. Todd you where in Rushcutters Bay Park (a well known beat) at 3.30pm, GHB found on you. Come on admit to your actions [this comment has been edited - Ed]. Don't peoples realise how bad this drug is?

[lukerhn]

Tall story. I don't buy the poor me for one minute.

either way its not a very nice thing to happen to anyone, regardless of how and why he ended up there

1 out of 10 for originality, 4 out of 10 for creativity and 0 out of 10 for believeability. An overall score of 5 out of 30.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke :P

[toughee]

Todd is lucky that he overdosed on a "date rape" drug so he can use that as his defense. Obviously he was down there out of it after a bit. The bloke is an asshole but he doesn't deserve to lose his job over it.

great another "dirty old queen" giving us more of a bum rap.

Its negative publicity like this that keeps adding another nail into our coffin for equality.

[coreyfrench]

being set up I find hard to believe I have seen him at Arq a few times and looks like having a bit too much fun

"Its negative publicity like this that keeps adding another nail into our coffin for equality." why should this stop equality? please. it has nothing to do with equality. our community has good and bad, like ANY community. whether or not we are treated like members of society or not has less to do with the behaviour of todd mckenney and more to do with the lawmakers in this country who prefer to keep us where we are.

Hehe true.

But there does seem to be a lot of non-tall-poppies earning a lot of money around. So in that sense, I'm happy to see people earn their keep, or at least come under scruitiny. Especially the loud mouthed talentless ones :) Which would include me if not for the income.

My statement is due to Mckenney being a public figure and their fore an "ambassador " for the gay community.Like footballers actors etc he is a type of role model. We need support from all areas of society to pressure the government for the advancement of our rights. Being found at a beat,passed out with drugs in his pockets only give ammunition to the influential religious groups to deny us.

.. oh yes.. of course.. someone is OBVIOUSLY out to get you.. LOL
