Ok, so I'm totally against the actions the "church" took inregards to prop 8. I agree their tax exempt satutus should be taken away, but it won't be. I believe that the "church" should of stayed out of it. People should get out and protest the "church", but do it in a peaceful and respectful way. But this article I found is way too drastic.

The article talks about how people need to boycott Utah's tourism industry as a whole. As in; not skiing, attending meetings/conventions, or visiting the National Parks here in Utah. The article is also calling for filmmakers to pull out of Sundance.....
Yes, the headquarters of the "church" are located here in good ole' Salt Lake City. My question is; does the whole state of Utah need to be punished for the actions a religion headquartered in Utah took?
Bottomline is you pull all this business from the state of Utah by boycotting the tourism industry, an industry that employees the gay community. So are you calling for a boycott of the gay community of Utah?
