Lesbian Kiss Causes Seattle to Lose its Mind

We'll get into this one on the show today, as PDAs are always a touchy subject. A lesbian couple who kissed each other over a plate of garlic fries at a Seattle Mariners game last week were allegedly told by an usher to stop because it made another fan "uncomfortable." Now the two are at the center of a city-wide debate over public displays of affection:

"I would be uncomfortable" seeing public displays of affection between lesbians or gay men, said Jim Ridneour, a 54-year-old taxi driver. "I don't think it's right seeing women kissing in public. If I had my family there, I'd have to explain what's going on."

I know Jim, how awful! You'd have to admit to your family that gays and lesbians actually exist and have normal relationships and go out in pubilc! What a tragedy!
