沈伯洋同志酒吧萬華分局

Quick Look

民進黨台北市長參選人沈伯洋針對萬華分局同志酒吧搜索事件發表看法，指出雖然違法行為應依法處理，但執法方式仍需被檢視，強調台北的多元與包容應落實於日常生活與警察執法現場，而非僅限於同志遊行一天。

Why It Matters

台北市西門町知名同志酒吧遭檢舉涉妨害風化，萬華分局進行搜索後引發執法爭議，起初否認不當執法，但在影像曝光與調查後承認確有爭議存在。市長蔣萬安受訪致歉並要求加強警紀宣導。

台北市西門町知名同志酒吧遭人檢舉店內有妨害風化情事，市警局萬華分局因涉歧視性執法引發軒然大波，市長蔣萬安受訪致歉，要求加強警紀宣導。對此，民進黨籍台北市長參選沈伯洋今於臉書發文表示，知道這幾天同志朋友的心情不好受，警方「依法執法」但不代表執法方式不需被檢視，台北的多元與包容，不該只有在同志遊行那一天被看見，一座真正友善的城市，是讓人知道可以安心做自己

沈伯洋表示，昨天競總成立大會來了很多同志朋友，有人揮著彩虹旗，也有人別著彩虹小物，為這座城市的未來加油，但他也知道這幾天同志朋友的心情不好受。蔣萬安上任第四年，台北卻發生同志酒吧搜索引發的執法爭議，萬華分局一度否認員警不當執法，然於相關影像曝光、調查後，警方承認確實有執法爭議存在。

請繼續往下閱讀...

沈伯洋指出，這起事件不只受到人權團體批評，也引起國際媒體關注。如果有違法的事情，就應依法處理，但是依法執法「不代表執法的方式不需要被檢視。」人民有權知道執法的依據是什麼、界線在哪裡，當國家行使公權力時，又要如何確保每個人的人格與尊嚴，都能受到同樣的尊重。尤其對於曾經歷過歧視、污名，甚至害怕被看見的群體來說，一句話、一個動作，都可能讓人重新想起：「自己是不是又被當成不一樣的人？」

沈伯洋提到，更要問的是，怎麼讓制度變得更好、避免類似的事情再次發生，以及讓每一個生活在台北的人，不論身分、性別、性傾向，都相信這座城市會平等地對待自己，「台北的多元與包容，不應該只有在同志遊行那一天被看見！」而該存在於警察執法的每一個現場、存在於市政府的每一項制度，也存在於生活的每一天。一座真正友善的城市，不只是歡迎你來，也讓人知道，可以安心做自己。

Lee Ming-hsien talks about the Taipei mayoral election: Attack and defense on drug issues are still a front-line battle, and Shen Boyang's "Ocean Current" is hardly as thick as the "Korean Wave" in 2018

Taipei City Councilor Lee Ming-hsien of the KMT revealed in a political commentary program that he saw in the council members’ internal group that a council member first posted Shen Boyang’s drug-related article from 12 years ago, but it was unclear who found it in the first place. He believes that the current attack and defense of Jiang Wanan and Shen Boyang on the drug issue is still a "call for battle before the battle" in the early stage of the election campaign, and the formal battle has yet to be discussed in the follow-up. Li Mingxian analyzed that the election campaign needs to take into account both the basic base and the median voters, and Jiang Wanan is building an organizational base. As for Shen Boyang's so-called "ocean current", he believes that its political cohesion is different from the "Korean Wave" in 2018. There is still a gap in thickness and penetration, and the momentum has both natural and human factors.
