Perspective


BREAKING NEWS!!!
This just in from Salt Lake City:
Thousands of Mormons stormed the offices of MetroWest Daily News in protest of the above political cartoon. The protest is getting heated after this cartoon was published today. Copies of the paper are being folded neatly and placed in recycling bins in protest. Hundreds of people are reportedly carrying buckets of green jello and are threatening to dump it on the sidewalk in front of the news office.
"We just can't take it anymore!" said one anonymous Mormon that had gathered here. "We haven't participated in polygamy for over a century! Why can't they just leave us alone!" was a theme heard from many of the protesters. "This is offensive to our religion and we won't stand for it anymore!!!" a woman exclaimed as she hurled a glob of green jello at the front door of the news office.
"Why can't people understand that these cartoons are hurtful and offensive? Why, they just take away my reason for living." said one woman as she tried to keep her 9 children out of the way of the protesters.
Right before the police arrived to break up the melee the crowd had started chanting, "Geez, geez, geez, take this cartoon away puhleease."
As the police started to break up the commotion a local Bishop stood before the crowd to make a statement. "If you have any leftover green jello please bring it to the Pinewood derby tonight at the 8th ward chapel, we're running short of refreshment assignments. Thank You."
