Practicing Mormons march during a gay pride parade in Salt Lake City, Utah, June 3, 2012. Over 300 active Mormons and more than 5,000 members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community with their supporters marched in the parade as part of the Utah Pride Festival.

Sexual deviancy is chic during these days of the decline of America’s greatness. Everybody wants to be a homo in order to impress their “friends” as America goes in the toilet.

How in the hell does a REAL man explain this garbage to his grandsons?

The damn corrupt libs, treasonist sick f . . . . s, have destroyed this once great country....

I’ve had it, this is no longer my country, this is just the place I am stuck in.

When I was a little guy my grandfather used to take me to a parades, there were horses, Cowboys, Indians, clowns, old cars, military, our flag, free candy and on and on. It was a fun show, not a fracking freak show being presented as normal.

Look at those photos, THAT is a disgrace... THAT is also what the rest of the world now sees as America, THAT is what they are now seeing our military turn into.

My grandfather lied about his age to join in the fighting for our country in WWII. He was in the Navy for 20 years. THIS IS NOT THE AMERICA he fought for or the America his buddies died for.

I would be willing to fight to get her back, but I think she is already dead.

then I worry for you. Do you seriously contend that Obama and his passion for the Muslim Brotherhood and all things Muslim are some how less of an evil and a threat to the US than Mitt Romney????

I might understand the intent of your post if it were on some other thread and in reaction to an anti Romney article.... but it’s not.

So I am left wondering if you are defending the queer loving mormons, just the mormons or if you’re a faggot.

Do you like Gladiator movies?

Let’s see. The Salt Lake City metropolitan area has, according to the 2010 census, a population of 1,145,905 but less than half the population of Salt Lake City proper are members of the LDS Church today. That still leaves an estimated Mormon population of approximately 515,650. If over 300, let’s say we round that up to 325 “supposedly” practicing Mormons showed up for the Gay Pride parade; that would mean a whopping .06% of the total LDS in the area showed up.

Color me not particularly impressed by what some here are considering this overwhelming support by LDS of the “Pride Festival”.

Don’t forget for one minute that the LDS has had a bull’s eye on their backs for supporting Prop 8. Don’t forget that the abortion and homosexual lobby will do the same sort of thing to anyone who opposes their agenda. How many supposedly pro-gay Evangelical Christians and Catholics can and have been dug up for such events in other cities?

Hey there, I'm one of those not-voting-for-Willard FReepers that you think are "unenlightened".

I'm sick of self-identified Conservatives trying to scare people into voting for a homo-agenda-coddling, gun grabbing, abortionist, nanny stater, illegal-lovin, souless and conscienceless fraud. Its quite simple: there is little difference in the way that Willard and Hussein would behave and what they would push. The difference is a Congress who resists and deadlocks vs one that enables. Your links won't scare me into betraying my soul just to keep a fag-friendly GOP afloat buddy. I know all about Hussein as did most here about 4 years ago. The U.S. is a lot more resiliant than you give her credit for. I would rather have a shot at a real Conservative in 2016 than have the [R] party permanently moved light years to the left this time by voting for the sh*ttiest sandwich served to date as a candidate. I am not going to be played this time, but you go ahead and support the permanent marginlization of Conservatives voices within the party

Have at it.

No one is stopping you or anyone else from voting for whomever you want to.

All I'm arguing (AS A VIETNAM VET, A CHRISTIAN AND A PATRIOT, WHO LOVES HIS COUNTRY MORE THAN LIFE)....

...is that notwithstaning all the moral/social issues which appear to take precedent over the safety and survival of our Republic (and which ARE important and we should continue to FIGHT for/against which ever ones are being eroded or foisted upon us)....

....the FACT remains that NONE of you to date, has been able to produce ONE IOTA/SCINTILLA of evidence, which in ANY WAY, SHAPE or FORM....

...would lead one to believe that Mittens has EVER said or DONE anything which is inimical to the safety or disparaged our Republic or has acted in a manner which one could interpret he would INTENTIONALLY and ACTIVELY work to "harm"--if not DESTROY our Country....which we know (and I am trying to remind all....) that our FASCIST, NEO-COMMIE, ISLAMIC-MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD-APPEASING/DEFENDING/SUPPORTING, Dear Leader has, and continues to do.

Sorry, I've got too much invested in my country to "chance" it being allowed to being "subverted" from within....and in this instance, based upon what I KNOW, our SAFETY/SECURITY/SURVIVAL, trumps all else!Q

Don't know if you (or others here who agree with you) ever served; I DID....

And NOT that, that makes me special or superior...I'm just one of Millions...

It is just that WHEN I took the "Oath" (TO DEFEND AGAINST ALL ENEMIES--FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC--) it was forever (A LIFETIME) and not just for the 8 years I served.

Thus I will continue to do so to the best of my ability to my dying breath!!!

“God damn the LDS for permitting this despicable “outreach” and even likely WELCOMING it.”

The LDS didn’t permit it or welcome it.

The march is in Salt Lake City, which votes democrat and comprises only a small part of the metro area, and probably has only a minority of voters that are LDS.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_Lake_City

Think along this line: Salt Lake City is to Utah as Austin is to Texas.

The LDS church has been criticized for being anti-gay, recently surrounding the Prop.8 measure in California.

Romney: Gay couples raising kids is the American way

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1846225/posts

Well, WHOOP-DE-FREEKING-DOO!

Five years ago, Romney might have mispoken or he may have been serious.

AND, how does that make him 10 times worst that "he" who never met an abotion he didn't like or supported INFANTICIDE (moved to block vote on Infant Born Alive Bill) as a Illinois Senator or supports Gay Marriage?

MOREOVER, as I apparently have to keep repeating, while Social Issues ARE important, HOW is this position of Romney's (if in fact it is) a THREAT to our SECURITY AND SURVIVAL????

Sorry, it looks like its back to the drawing board and try a little harder next time.

Think you'll win a lot of votes by talking that way to folks who hold traditional values?

Or maybe, like liberals, you just hate the people who stay true to traditional values?

“NATURALLY, y’all by insinuation if not by outright accusation, necessarily intend for this to reflect poorly on Mittens and his religion....in an effort to what?”

I must be really slow. Romney didn’t even cross my mind when reading this post. I took it as perverts and people of “faith” trying to be pc and inclusive. I’ve got an extra roll of tin foil if you need some.

while Social Issues ARE important

What is a "Social Issue"?

I know about threats to the Constitution such as the movement to deny the Right to Life, a movement to make certain perverted behavoirs protected classes with 'rights' above and beyond those guaranteed, a movement to destroy the 2nd Amendment, and various other movements aimed at weakening or misinterpreting the Constitution.

"Social Issues"? Is that how Matt Lauer, katie Couric or Tingles Matthews refer to the Constitutional issues I just mentioned? Maybe you better tune them out. A threat to the U.S. Constitution from a domestic enemy is as grave a threat to the U.S. Constitution/security from a foreign enemy, if not greater. I already laid out for you why I will not vote for Willard, and why your (and others) scare tactics ring hollow. Willard is a threat to the U.S. Constitution, only slightly less so than Hussein in many respects. The only difference is that Willard would have the cooperation of Congress. Yes, I am supporting Conservative candidates nationwide with efforts and $$$. The House and Senate is where we make our stand these next 4 years. The White house? Forget it.

Every major media outlet is now on the story and they will use this to "shame" Christian Faiths to follow suit. The Homosexual Agenda in full regale:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ support of Proposition 8, which banned same-sex marriage in California, created deep divides between Mormons and the gay community. But LGBT advocates say it also started a conversation.

“A conversation about how we can avoid inflicting that kind of harm on human beings again,” said Valerie Larabee, the executive director of the Utah Pride Center.

Not in agreement with Mormonism, but these posers were NOT real Mormons; they were more on the order of the fake Catholic liberal groups like Dignity. I’d be curious to know what the main church hierarchy says about this.

[How in the hell does a REAL man explain this garbage to his grandsons?]

Rom 1:22-32
22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
NIV

Same Ol’.

The Quisling in the White Hut’s closet Islamofascism is hardly a reason to facilitate the homosexual agenda by propping up Bishop Romney’s Kolobian/Deseretian State-religious fraud.

ESAD - if you do, you will.

NO SALE.
