Here in Utah you're not allowed to even wear a T-shirt that might be offensive to mormons anywhere near their properties. Every bill has to be reviewed by the "brethren" in the big white tower and they have absolute veto power as 90% of elected officials are mormon.

Number 1. what "big white tower"?
Number 2. it would last as long as the U.S. would. They believe in submitting to the laws of the land. and in the power of choice.
If you know something about Prohibition, you would know that the leaders of the mormons were very against it, preventing citizens from their choice to ingest alcohol.
Number 3. what "brethren"?
why would you want to where a shirt that is offensive to the mormons? would you wear a shirt offensive to the Catholics? would you wear one against the Jewish?
you seem a little anti-mormon. they are personally some of the best people i know, i choose to spend as much time as possible with them.

The Mormons control Utah, however, look around, who controls G.E.? The news media and entertainment industry? The natural gas and oil industries?. These people affect the everyday lives of every person in this country, the Mormons affect only the people in Utah. Why is it we know all about the Mormons but don't even know who owns the above mentions companies?, where they live, where they work. They have no faces and no names and they will negatively affect you and your families and friends lives for many many years to come. THINK

Where do you get the idea that Mormons are against freedom of speech? Mormons are in favor of all of the Bill of Rights and respect the U.S. and its freedoms. Your assumptions are based on bigotry. If you come on their property and have an offensive
t-shirt on, they have the right to say something. Mormons are the ones who have been under attack by religious bigots who pass on misinformation about their faith. Every bodies rights are protected under our constitution, so your premise is wrong.

I did not know that and that is absolutely corrupt. I think there should be protest, law breaking and general mayhem until division of church and state is honored. I hate to offend, but Im friends with a few who left their utah homes and mormon upbringings to live here in the world of reality. I have had the pleasure of living next door to houses jam packed with mormons trying depserately to convert my family. i think its a bunch of crap, and so do my escapee pals.

Wow... kid what are you smoking? I live in Utah and I see offensive shirts everyday by the idiots who wear them. You need to understand that there is a difference between freedom of speech and plain old respect for others.
