Please be aware that Sandals is a discriminatory company. This is
usually not mentioned openly in their promotional materials; it is not
mentioned on the websit just advertised by John Gall. Sandals is not
only discriminatory, but also hides this in their promotional
materials so as not to alienate decent people.

Sometimes couples have arrived at Sandals for their pre-paid vacation,
and been turned away when they arrived to register. People interested
in Sandals should be aware that it has an anti-gay policy,
specifically excluding gay couples from going. This is in violation
of many laws around the world, with the result that Sandals cannot
advertise in many areas.

I would urge decent human beings to refuse to go to Sandals, just as
they would refuse to go to a resort that excluded blacks or Jews.

For example, last September the mayor of Londor prohibited advertising
by Sandals on the London Underground. Their advertising has also been
banned by the BBC for the same reasons.

When Sandals tried five years ago to have a promotion advertised on
the internet for a sweepstakes to win a vacation for two, the ads were
pulled by Microsoft and Yahoo as soon as they became aware of Sandals'
discriminatory policies. The history of this event can be read many
places on the web, including
http://www.wiredstrategeies.com/resort.html.

Lots of information is available at
