SALT LAKE CITY – Utah's growing tourism industry and the star-studded Sundance Film Festival are being targeted for a boycott by bloggers, gay rights activists and others seeking to punish the Mormon church for its aggressive promotion of California's ban on gay marriage.
Read about it at Yahoo News: Utah faces boycott after Mormon work for Prop 8
So....you must stop yourselves from staying at the Marriott, from going to Sundance , from biking in Moab, from hiking Zion.....what a pity, but they deserve it.
There also should be a law in California preventing out of state meddling with our Constitution. Why on earth it takes a simple majority to mod the constitution, while a tax increase for BART takes 2/3's is beyond me.
And on the lighter side, a Mormon called me a "fag" and a "loser" for proposing the elimination of their tax exempt status. Nice family oriented people those Mormons. Of course this a** doesn't seem to understand that hetero families - married - with children - can in fact support the rights of their gay friends for marriage.
I have decided that "social conservative" is code for "racist homophobe".
and "small town values" is code for "stupid, narrow minded, racist, religious fanatical white people just like us"
Give me Big City values any time. Folks in big cities understand that interdependence and collaboration among all of us is key to survival - not "going it alone" and waiting for things to "trickle down".
