Did you just say the Mormon church was living the Golden Rule in the way it dealt with this couple?


Of course it was. If the church were engaging in lewd and inappropriate behavior they would want to be treated with the same level of respect, and if the church was intentionally profane and disrespectful it would expect security personnel do do their jobs. Of course, the church would never engage in such juvenile behavior, so it's a moot point.

Hi Cam.

I see you are your usual caustic self today.


I come here to get rid of these moods.

What a disappointment on this, the Lord's day.


If you believed in the holiness of the Sabbath I might take this seriously. If we are, then I find it a horrid disappointment that you didn't fast for Ramadan.

I suppose Mormonism does not "perfect" one's self.


You learned that from one post of a message board. You should write a paper on this startling new development.

What a shame.


This your grandma?

That being said, I appreciate you acknowledging that the Mormon church is not living the Golden Rule.


Please quote where I stated this fact. I see you've adopted the Scratchite method of making things up. Good for you. Maybe he'll pat you on the head and point out how well you're learning your lessons.

Very Respectfully,


Doubtful.

Hello Mr. Maklelan,

Just to be clear, if you and your wife, or say, a friend and his wife, were to stroll through a "little bit of Paris", be videotaped the entire time, then confronted and outnumbered two to one by large security guards, confronted aggressively, and then physically assaulted you would be fine with that because you were holding hands and shared a simple kiss? Note: There was no sign saying heterosexual couples could not hold hands and share a kiss whilst strolling through a "little bit of Paris".

Very Respectfully,

They weren't videotaped the entire time. As is plainly clear, the video camera was not trained on them until well after their argument with security began. I don't know why you refuse to face the facts.

Doctor CamNC4Me wrote:then confronted and outnumbered two to one by large security guards, confronted aggressively,


The couple was acting far more aggressive than the security personal. You could see the first guard trying to calm them down and explain their position while Aune continued to yell profanities at them. Again, the facts are right in front of your face and you prefer rather to just invent new ones from thin air.

Doctor CamNC4Me wrote:and then physically assaulted you would be fine with that because you were holding hands and shared a simple kiss?


First, detaining someone who is refusing to leave private property after being asked to do so is not "physically assaulting" anything. They were well within their rights to do so. The couple was also very clearly not just sharing an innocent peck. Your refusal to recognize the facts is seriously astounding.

Doctor CamNC4Me wrote:Note: There was no sign saying heterosexual couples could not hold hands and share a kiss whilst strolling through a "little bit of Paris".


But sloppily making out isn't ok for anyone, and refusing to leave private property after being told to do so by authorized security personnel is illegal for everyone. There's absolutely no defending their actions whatsoever. You have to make up facts and ignore what clearly happened in order to make that argument, and it's one of the most ridiculous and farcical little examples of bigotry I've ever seen. You seem to have zero concern for facts and truth. Your only concern is hating the Mormons.
I like you Betty...

I do not believe there is a sign saying "Gay Men Must Not Show Affection on These Premises". Would you feel comfortable if your Church treated a heterosexual couple in the same fashion for simply holding hands and sharing a kiss?

Hello Dr. CamWhore,

There is no such sign. However, these fine specimens of humanity knew it was LDS owned. They protested the original acquisition.

I would disapprove of such an action against a heterosexual couple. However, I do not see heterosexual and homosexual couples as being equivalent.

Nehor, can we please cut out the Dr. CamWhore business? Or is Mr. Neslut OK with you?
I think it would be morally right to lie about your religion to edit the article favorably.

You can cut out what ever you like. As for me and my house, we shall mock.
