Cayyblogger you hit it spot on. For whatever reason, a handfull of outspoken religious nuts Like Alson Ebanks get an enormous amount of press and seem to have perplexing amount of direct influence on Government.

Having lived a long time in a large city with an enormous gay population, I only recall a few times I EVER saw Gays kiss in public. This hysteria over a very isolated "homosexual" event exposes Al Ebanks and his Special-Olympic Alumni followers apropriately as as ignoramuses. I can imagine a great many Caymanians cringed when the inevitable moronic letters were published by the local clergy. Do these idiots ever know when to SHUTUP?

Being "saddened" that the Minister of Tourism has the huevos to publically apologize is just absurd but not unexpected , thats for sure. What would Herr Al have preferred, extradite the Gay guy and have a public stoning?

If Cayman wishes to pass itself as a civilized country ,Government and their leading religious retardos need to collectively shut their jerk-chicken holes. All they did by detaining a GAY activist was generate a ton of negative publicity.

I actually DISAGREE the majority of Caymanians were "outraged" a couple of guys kissed a couple of times at a place like The Royal Palms. Most Caymanians I have talked to thought (rightly) that the Gay guys should considered finding a room when reminded that this country isn't exactly San Fransisco, but to be detained when they weren't breaking any laws was far worse. It wasn't like these guys were leading a Gay Pride parade down West Bay road while fornicating on a flamingo-coloured float, it was a stupid kiss.

Thanks again CB, you are so right. I really want to do something about Ebanks -he really needs hounding & brought to account. Caymans reverence of charlatans is sickening me & i am planning to leave soon. How i wish i could egg him at his altar without being hung. Take a look @ marlroad - we have govt officers saying 'burn queers' & dave miller saying 'they were lucky not to get flogged'. I am sick if this and and as a brit i am used to taking action against such pricks. What can we do to bother him?

UNFORTUNATELY THE ONLY THING THAT CAN HEAL THE HATRED IS TIME. THE FEAR AND HATRED IS WOVEN INTO THE CAYMANIAN FABRIC AND AS MUCH AS CAYMAN TRIES TO CONVINCE ITSELF AND OTHERS THAT IT IS THE JEWEL OF THE CARIBBEAN, CAYMAN REFUSES TO SEE ITS FLAWS. - rtm
