Lesbian protest kiss at convention during CO's talk... taking it too far?

    Oh, I think it WILL have the effect we envision. Looks of disgust, fear, judgement. Come on, we KNOW these people, and THAT is how they will react. Sisters running to the elders for protection. Thugs in ties having to take some kind of action and being extremely uncomfortable about that. In other words, PURE FUN!

    What would be really funny is if it is in a public building (summer convention) and there are laws against discrimination based on sexual orientation, could they legally be kicked out for a simple kiss if heterosexuals are allowed to kiss? LOL We could ask a lawyer.

    I fail to see what the point of doing this would be. I agree with the others that it wouldn't help anyone or prove anything.

    No BP, but nothing does anyway. It's a form of protest, that's all.

    I don't think giving the WTBS more ammunition to shoot at apostates is an effective form of protest. I can appreciate the shock value (and the fun -- maybe I'll write a scene into the current novel) but I don't think this sort of stunt will produce any sort of positive result.

    No it will not change anything. Judgemental people will continue to be judgemental. Others with a sense of humor will likely see the humor in it. But I didnt think it was being considered to change people. I thought it was being considered for giggles and shits. For our fun not for the Borg's sake. Lifestooshort thinks it is possible to be too serious.

    Almost snarked my tea all over my keyboard. Sorry, not feelin' all that "nice", tonight. The weather's been foul, so...

    Peace!

    SA, on her own... with no real excuse, of course, but, well... what can I say?

    I'm glad I'm not up for the payment for a new keyboard... if I was, I'd have to call a lawyer *cue BOTR* LOL...

    It will just reinforce their idea about Apostates..that they haven't got a brain and are exhibitionists..

    I would rather do something to make them realize Apostates have a brain..and that's why they are no longer JW's..

    Thank you guys for your replies...still thinking about it. Like I said: I'm a VERY shy, conservative person, so this would be something that I would NEVER do in public.
