SALT LAKE CITY – The Salt Lake City prosecutor's office says it will not pursue charges against two men who were cited for trespassing on a Mormon church-owned downtown plaza earlier this month after sharing a kiss.

Prosecutor Sim Gill says in a statement there is reason to believe that although the property is private, Matt Aune and his partner, Derek Jones, did not think they could legally be ejected from the plaza because it is perceived to be open to the public.

Aune and Jones have said they were targeted because they are gay. The July 9 incident has prompted two mass kissing demonstrations at the plaza.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has disputed Aune's and Jones' version of the events, saying their behavior was lewd and more was involved than a "simple kiss of the cheek."

The Mormon church who were directly tied to prop 8 in California and are being investigated for it have tired to prevent LBGT Community members from marriage. They quickly found out that when you try to push religion on others that people push back and now they are whining like the sorry pathetic criminals who got caught in the commission of a crime and want it all to go away.

Religious groups need to carefully consider when they choose to interfere with civil rights of anotehr they will get called on it and hopefully they will have learned that they should stay out of pushing their beliefs on people who don't want it nor need it.

These fools and others like them need to keep their personal relationships with the deity of the day to themselves and remain quiet since they have a tendency to force their beliefs on others and then find out they can't even back up their own beliefs when they are scrutinized.

The best thing for them to do is to shut up and stay out of other peoples lives. If they want to preach do it in church and not publicly since they can't even get their own religion to make sense let alone convince anyone with a brain that it does.

Thanks for sharing over at GW. They have a 24/7 prayer (circle jerk) going on over there. Obama is correct, we need to have civil discourse about the issue of health insurance reform.
