Bottom line, Mormons are our neighbors. We are to love our neighbors. And Jesus made it abundantly clear that "neighbor" also means people who do not believe as we do.
And our love is to take the form of Christ's love to us and the of his love that was documented in the New Testament where he was continually pointing out the error of the actions of people he met and calling them to repentence.
We are not emulating Christ's love if we refuse to warn people of the error of their lives, especially if that error leads them down the wide path to destruction which Mormonism does with their false god and their false teachings.

Sometimes, love has to be tough.
Telling people what they want to hear is not loving them.
Telling them the truth, as found in Scripture, is.
If I saw you about to be hit by a runaway truck, it’d be more loving of me to tackle you and drag you out of the way than to stand there and admonish you to be careful while leaving you in danger.
