''The two individuals believed -- albeit mistakenly -- that they had the right to be there. Fairness requires that either that property be not open to the public or you condition that [openness] in a way that the person who comes on understands that it is private property.''
Sim Bill, City Prosecutor for Salt Lake City, Utah, referring to the trespassing charge that had been thrown at Matt Aune and Derek Jones, a gay male couple who were being affectionate at the Main Street Plaza. The plaza is a controversial part of the city which was sold control of the area a few years ago to the Mormon Church of LDS. (Salt Lake Tribune)
