Thousands run through Salt Lake City in their undies to protest conservative rule
Well, at least according to the AP. . .an estimated 3,000 demonstrators ran thru downtown SLC to protest the uptight state laws!!!

SALT LAKE CITY - Thousands of people stripped to their underwear and ran through Salt Lake City to protest what they called the "uptight" laws of Utah.

Nudity was prohibited by organizers. Participants donned bras, panties, nightgowns, swimwear or colorful boxer shorts — and some added political messages by expressing support for causes like gay marriage on their chests, backs or legs.

Well, I hope Mittens wasn't paying his respects to his Mormon overlords. . .

That's the question

5. Ah, yes.
I've always found a non-judgmental approach to be attractive too.
