Dozens of people locked lips in downtown Portland Sunday afternoon in a show of solidarity with two lesbian teenagers who were kicked off a TriMet bus for kissing last month.

TriMet officials said the 64-year-old bus driver faced disciplinary action for removing the two 14-year-old girls during a June 8 incident aboard his bus, but did not release the details.

The driver, an 11-year veteran, violated several agency procedures and policies, officials said.

The girls said the driver called them "sickos" after a female passenger complained about their kiss. He then stopped the bus along the street and forced them off.

TriMet officials have apologized to the girls and their families.

The puckering protesters said everyone has the right to show their loved ones affection and they want TriMet employees to receive diversity training.

They are pushing this to far. The more they protest the more people will lose simpathy for them. I think this is just an immature publicity stunt for the Gay and Lesbian Movement and the two immature and bratty teenagers.

I'm truely beginning to have a genuine hate for these people. Not because of what they are, but because of what they do. Stupid, in your face, shit like this.

i don't see what the protesting is about, it was one driver not a multiple ones, and that driver was dealt with and they did recieve a PR apology.

and didn't he recieve a complaint? there is a peck/light kiss which is meh...oh well, and then there is just being vulgar in public, which might have been the case if somone was complaining.

and the driver was old. you can't hold old ppl accountable :laugh:

Yeah like a straight couple has never kissed in public. It's not that big of a deal and kicking someone off a bus onto a strange street for it is a real over reaction. As for the protest, the bus company seems to be adrressing the problem so I don't see the need but also don't have a problem with it either.

That might have some health concerns with getting shit everywhere and all that so logically we wouldn't want it but kissing between gays when compared to straight kissing does not cause such problems and if one is fine the other should be to. What you call devient someone else would call normal. You can't make government bussing policy on it.

Not if they don't ask other couples, that is descriminations to single out one group when others are allowed to do the same thing freely. That is why we have civil rights laws so people can't label one group doing something devient while it being okay for another.

I don't need to provide proof of anything towards other couples, he was completely within his rights as the driver of the bus to ask them to stop. If someone can provide proof that either a driver or rider complained about a straight couples actions and the opposite action was taken, then you would have discrimination. Until then all you have is a couple of lesbos tossed off of a bus for being obstinate.

Personally, I don't want to see straight couples kissing either. Some things are best left for privacy.

If a 12 yo was kicked off a bus on some strange street on his/her for being rowdy and disruptive I doubt you would be saying the same thing. Under the law these 14 yo are just has much minors as that 12 yo would be.

Luckily for my son and I, I am raising him correctly and don't have to worry about this. He's being taught to be respectful of authority and others around him. Whether he disagrees with policy or not, it's not his place to disobey those in charge. It's best to adhere to what is asked of you and complain later if you have an issue rather than become defiant and cause problems.

Probably more so for tossing them into the middle of nowhere, and not because of asking them to stop kissing on a public bus. In other words, no discrimination.

My take on this things is that neither gays nor straights should be making out on any sort of public transportation! What they do behind closed doors is their own business, but not in public! And I also believe that some hetero sexual practices (even behind closed doors) - are quite deviant. Perhaps I'm just a prude!

Well stated, Mommy :)

And yes, there are plenty of heterosexuals practicing in deviant behavior. But like I stated many times before, there is a 'degree' to deviant behavior that society will accept. Generally speaking, the behavior between a man and a woman, even if deviant, will be somewhat accepted.

No I don't determine what's natural. Nature does, and no, that does not change. The only thing that changes are the attitudes of people that have left God behind, and have decided they're smarter than he is and want to rewrite in their own hand what is normal and what is not.

Yes, the company would rather cater to the complainers than stick up for decency. No laws were broken, and although you can label it as discrimination, it was certainly not illegal discrimination.

I'd venture a guess that if we took a public poll, not just on this board, that more would agree with the drivers actions.

I've seen sexual activities, drinking, smoking... I think the worst had to be the dirtbags that would fart and then move away leaving the stench for the rest of us to suffer in.

Also what the girls did wasn't illegal either Jim.

People don't like watching other people groap eachother in public, no matter who it is.

Actually, he was. He was the driver and he decides who is and isn't a nuisance. Even though the company took action internally, the little shits can't do a damn thing about it, as what he did was perfectly within his rights. Now, of course ANYONE can file a civil suit, so that's not to say they can't take that sort of action, but hopefully a judge or jury would tell them they should listen to those in charge next time and toss their asses out of court. Again, there is a huge difference between internal discipline and that of the law.

The kids did do something about it which led to the internal discipline by complaining. The company apologized. Just because legal action wasn’t taken against him didn’t mean he had the right to do it. He works for the company and the company decides what he is allowed to do if he wants to work for them.

There is a really bug grey area here. We really don't know what happened completly. Remember teenageers do overexagerate. Also there is three sides to this store, the girls side, the bus drivers side and then the truth. You know each party involved told their story to make it more favorable for each of their cases. So like I said there is a real greay area. Was what the girls did right? No Was what the bus driver did by kicking them off the bus? No.
