Mitt Romney left the Marriott Board while he was campaigning, but then returned.
According to a press release of this protest -- MormonMarriottsMoral Masquerade:HotelChainProfitsoffofUnsafePornSaysAHF :
9:15pmPress Availability and PORN IN (Penthouse Suite #1427) Officials from AHF and Pink Cross Foundation will speak to the media while a porn in showing the Marriotts unsafe porn (films without condom use) will stream on the hotel room television in the background
So they showed actual porn films that the Marriott, as an active business w/in the porn industry, profiteers off?
Also from this linked news release: GO LIVE at 10 pm or 11 pm from CONDOM PROTEST in front of Marriott L.A. Downtown - Protesters will be carrying signs, banners and three foot wide condoms
i thought hotel porn was the version where they didn’t actually show genitals. what do I know.
It is beyond belief how far this nation has sunk in the last 20 years.
“Protesters will be carrying signs, banners and three foot wide condoms”
Hey, finally one big enough to fit over POtuS...
If these rump-rangers and carpet munchers parents would have used a condom, we wouldn’t have to put up with their crap.....
Eventually people have got to get sick of smut, don’t they?
When the full story is known, it will be said that Russia tried for several decades to destabilize the United States; that Russia supported and convinced many people to act in its interest without their knowledge; that Russia seeks — continues to seek — military advantage by sowing economic and social discord here.
I say we respond, in kind. Fifty-fold.
I figured they were boycotting because they didn’t offer gay porn, in addition to regular porn (and I’m not talking about just the chick-on-chick kind of porn)
The Ventura Beach Marriott doesn’t offer any adult movies.
Apparently the owners (some are franchised, some are owned) are rather devout.
But they do offer HBO, so it isn’t all that bad.
I don’t bother with those movies anyway — after 10 or 15 seconds the titillation wears off and it is just boring and a bit sad.
Porn pimp:
Its a great privilege to be asked to rejoin the Marriott board and I look forward to serving once again in that capacity.
- Mitt Romney, January 2009
Well!
Isn't THAT special!!
For the first time, I agree with you on a Mormon issue. Mormon owned businesses should not offer porn in any form.
I do hope that the boycott extends to other major hotels that offer the same. It seems odd that they singled out Marriot...? They’re still ticked off by the huge success in defeating Prop. 8, I guess.
Does this mean that if I stay at that Marriott I will have to wear my socks in the shower?
I wonder, are these folks who belong or worse sit on the boards of these organization born laughing stocks, or do they work hard at becoming laughing stocks? Same question could apply for the current administration and congress.
Cool beans
I can stay at a Marriott property
and not have to see any fags.
What a great marketing strategy!
“Marriott - we’re queer free.”
Not being familiar with porn other than I know I dont ever want to watch it...
I dont know what porn in a so called “respectable” hotel is suppose to be like.....
I dont stay in hotels that show porn...
They can tell the guy is naked ???
What filth...
Porn is OK but not using condoms isn’t.
Something is soooo wrong with this picture.
Maranatha, Jesus. Time to call it quits.
