Question for the knowledgeble.

LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY [info]chron_job)

Hi, I'm new to the community.

Information at the following link:

http://www.alternet.org/rights/64336/

(Concerning: Russian-speaking Christian fundamentalists, mostly immigrants from the former Soviet Union, have formed a ferocious anti-gay movement in the western U.S.)

Had me wondering some things...

Does anyone have any information on the group mentioned, "The Watchmen on the walls"? Do they have any economic links with groups of interest to this community, here in the U.S.?

Is there any reason to think that 'Protestant Christian' denominations get asymmetrical treatment by the U.S. State Department, as per allowing immigration, when they are the victims of religious persecution in their countries of origin?

Convention ends with Satan and immigrants

Convention ends with Satan and immigrants

CALEB WARNOCK - Daily Herald   

Utah County Republicans ended their convention on Saturday by debating Satan's influence on illegal immigrants.

 
EDIT: My response: What a bunch of grade "A" assholes these guys are.  

This sounds like a bunch things that a of group of redneck racists would  say and that I hear from  places in the South . It truly amazes me that the LDS community doesn't rise up and smite these bastards. (Channeling the Comedian Lewis Black here).

Its things like this that make the rest of the country look at the LDS community and think that they've lost their minds. While I can see that these guys are a noisy minority who are making the LDS community look like they're racists as well, which is why they should run people like this out of town, and work on finding nicer elected officals instead of ignorant racists that pander to the lowest fears in everyone.

I had Mormon neighbors growing up and they were the nicest people ever and while it is a common joke that Utah is the whitest state in the Union. These jerks that hold office are making people in Utah  and specifically the LDS community sound like a  bunch of racists.  The LSD community needs to work on fixing this image that those morons are showing people and undo the damage that this could cause with their relationships to other faiths and groups.  

Current Mood: nauseated
