Mission Accomplished!
Looks like the protesters are going to get their way.
http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=2549804 I haven't seen any porn but I have been offended by some of the commercials they show. The totally awesome computers commercial comes to mind. That's got to be one of the most annoying commercials ever. |

In other embarrassing Utah County news, a family friendly movie editing store is a front for a porn studio and distribution center. Oh, the owners are also pedophiles.

Back to the Gold's gym protesters; what are your feelings about their motivations? I don't think these are just naive nerds who were shocked to see some scantily clad women in a music video. From the beginning I thought that this might have very little to do with the videos at the gym and everything to do with self promotion. Now that they've revealed they have more businesses to protest I feel like I was correct. The thing I can't figure out is what the ultimate benefit for them will be. Or in other words, in the end who are they trying to impress?

I have seen posts on both TBS and Cougarboard referring to some of the pictures on this board as "porn". Sure we can laugh off these people, but they are serious and believe what they say. AS long as it is their words and their opinions, radicals don't bother me. It is when they organize and because people really don't care, they are able to push through their radical minority type views. You find it all the time. A small group is a pain in the butt and so you let them have their way, because quite frankly you just don't care since it affects someone else and not you. They are viewed as silly nuisances. However, sometime they might go after something you care about that most people don't. You will then lose some freedom you have because these purists push their agenda on you and just too many others don't care. |

More than likely, you ARE correct. These taliban have visions of authority in the heirarchy. They hope one day to be sitting in a soft chair facing the congregation in general conference.
