The crowd shouts U-S-A, U-S-A. Maybe they thought is was an international kissing contest. Hey, why not. I say give the guys a 10.0 Good job, fellows!

I'm not really clear on what's going on here... so they kiss, a bunch of bigots get offended and start booing, then security escorts them out for kissing, and people cheer their removal with USA chants??? Is that what this is?? If so, that's disturbing (especially that they were asked to leave). Or am I jumping to conclusions here?

That's what it seems to be about.
The U-S-A chant seems like some lame attempt to invoke their gods which means the two guys kissing scares them. Isn't that what the hatred is really about? Fear? Like, oh my god what if... what if...I... NOOOO!! And then the fear kicks in. If these people kissed their fear on the mouth they wouldn't be bothered by the two men kissing each other on the mouth.
Hold crap- am I gonna catch hell for this post?

That's no USA to me. The home of the Free... Free to kiss whomever you choose and free to marry whoever you choose. That would be more USA-like to me.

Kinda funny. Personally though, I don't want to see anyone kiss in public, except two got chicks. I have no idea why anyone would be against that!!!
Um... ?
(while I'm not morally "against" seeing two hot chicks kiss in public, it's pretty much at the bottom of my list of people I would WANT to see kiss in public. At the top would be me and François Sagat.)

probably will get those far right more united though :?
But if it unites those on the far right, it pushes the GOP further right, thereby swinging independents towards Obama.
And seriously to the people chanting 'USA!'... Do you think it's American to kick two people out for kissing?

It will get you kicked out of most schools in today's society, regardless of gender.
Thank god I went to highschool in Canada!

I don't know if that is true, in my eyes Santorum is playing farther right than Romney
to get that vote. I think those people who don't want homosexuality this visible
in society but are not necessarily far right could take this example and lean towards the GOP
vote, independent or otherwise. Why I saw this as unifying in a way....
not defeating.
Personally I see Independents often leaning one way or the other naturally due to core beliefs
or pertaining to central issues of importance to them.
They just don't fit in the party box perfectly so they can't buy into red or blue.
