Adam Graham and Phillip Banks explain how the manager of an Ottawa restaurant asked them to stop kissing because "children had questions." This interview was recorded an hour before they started the kiss-in.

Check out http://www.xtra.ca/public/viewstory.aspx?AFF_TYPE=2&STORY_ID=3359&PUB... for the full story.

In protest of their poor treatment, they staged a kiss-in against homophobia on Jul 19 at Mexicali Rosa's on Dow's Lake. They received an apology from the restaurant's owner the next day.

  • People should mind their own business anyways, if a couple wants to kiss who cares? It's not like they were down each other's throats. Ignorance is the worst thing.
