The Cayman Islands Government has a responsibility to allow the all–gay cruise participants to come to shore tomorrow from the ship Navigator of the Seas, Leader of Government Business Kurt Tibbetts said at the Cabinet press briefing on Friday.
As many as 3,200 homosexual men and women passengers will be aboard the ship on a cruise organised by Atlantis Events and billed as “The Largest Gay Cruise in History II”.
Mr. Tibbetts said it would be impossible to deny landing to the gay cruisers if they behave like other tourists.
“Unless their actions while they’re here in the Cayman Islands go counter to our legislation, on what basis can we say no?”
If gay cruise ship visitors broke the law while here, it would be a different story, Mr. Tibbetts said.
“But we cannot presume those actions.”
