Let me be clear, however.

The behavior is repulsive and revolting.

The people deserve to be treated as people.

Even sticking their perversion in your face is a behavior, separate from the existance of the person.

evidently this guy is HUGE in the mormon community. seriously. he has been in a ton of their movies and is trying to go mainstream so he can support his family. so anything with him is big in the LDS circles.

I wouldn't say HUGE. I would guess most LDS don't really care much about the silly (and generally mediocre) comedies he is known for. If he were HUGE he wouldn't have to go mainstream to support his family.

That commercial is hilarious!

Maybe they were just poking fun at speed walkers instead of gays. It seems that there are people who wake up every morning just looking for something to be offended by.

Agreed, but after they depart from it. Until then they pretty much deserve contempt.

Folks got no sense of humor whatsoever.

Not that it's all that funny, I'd expect better from Mr. T.

The commercial ends with Mr. T telling the audience to "Get some nuts."

Hey!

It influenced Jesse Jack$on!

MORMONS are NOT christians

Leftism allows you to hold contradictory ideas in the same mind at the same time.

Funny then that the official name of their church is:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

They consider themselves Christian. You are of course free to disagree.

The official name of the FLDS bunch church is:

The FUNDAMENTALIST Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

They consider themselves MORMON. The SLC branch of MORMONISM wants to deny them (any everyone else) the RIGHT to call them MORMON.  You are of course free to disagree.
