[IMG]http://www.allout.org/petition/uganda[/IMG]Uganda's "kill the gays" bill is apparently [URL="http://news.pinkpaper.com/NewsStory/5301/9/5/2011/Humanist-charity-concerned-over-review-of-Ugandas-Anti-homosexuality-Bill--.aspx"]being fast-tracked[/URL] for a parliamentary vote within the next few days.
[quote][INDENT]If enacted, the Bill would greatly broaden the criminalisation of homosexuality by introducing the death penalty for people who have previous convictions, are HIV-positive, or engage in same sex acts with people under 18 years of age. The bill also includes provisions for Ugandans who engage in same-sex sexual relations outside of Uganda, asserting that they may be extradited for punishment back to Uganda, and includes penalties for individuals, companies, media organisations, or non-governmental organisations that support LGBT rights.[/INDENT][/quote]There is hope that international pressure, particularly from the United States, may [URL="http://madikazemi.blogspot.com/2011/05/world-acts-to-stop-ugandas-kill-gays.html"]derail the bill[/URL] yet again.
[quote]The US government has moved increasingly to tie aid to human rights, including LGBT human rights. The US Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geitner, last month indicated that the US will use its influence in world bodies which provide Uganda with a big chunk of its budget. Already Germany has stopped aid to Malawi following anti-gay moves, including criminalising lesbians, in that country and funding for a huge infrastructure project only went ahead after reassurances on human rights from Malawi's government.[/quote]

Good that there are upstanding people in this world who are willing to defy the gay agenda.
god fucking dammit
God damn it, this AGAIN?!
Oh well, time to listen to that Ugandan Pastor Guy again.

This law was proposed after American Evangelicals had an anti-gay conference in the country. What do you think?
Is this the same country that had the minster who showed the tape of "Eating da poopoo"?
Signed the petition.
Wait, aren't these the same guys who did the whole, "They smear the poopoo!"

Perfect timing.
The primary religion in Uganda is Christian/Catholic.
I could have sworn that the religion is more about love and tolerance. How the [b]fuck[/b] did they interpret it as killing gays.

Anyways anyone who reads this thread should sign the petition.

Indeed. Humans have a hard time grasping the idea of "Loving thy neighbor" but.. it's no wonder to be honest. And it's too late for that, or maybe it's just some wishful thinking the religions have deep down if you don't count the "religious people" who are just employed by the religious organizations, plus the fanatic fools who don't seem to have their own thoughts about things.
Lol.

If this passes, I really, really hope any country they try to extradite people from tells Uganda to fuck off. If in somewhat more diplomatic terms.

most western nations won't extradite if the person has a chance at being executed
Uganda is a failed country.
I find it very amusing that the U.S. Government is fighting for LGBT rights - after all, they're being systematically oppressed within its own borders.
Still, they may do some good because of their influence.
IT'S NOT MURDER
IT'S NOT RAPE
IT'S NOT PEDOPHILIA
IT'S NOT ARMED ROBBERY
IT'S NOT TORTURE
IT'S NOT TREASON
IT'S TWO GUYS LIVING TOGETHER AND SOMETIMES FUCKING EACH OTHER IN THE ASS
[b]WHY CAN'T YOU DUMBASSES GET THAT THROUGH YOUR FUCKING HEADS[/b]
Jesus fucking christ I hate fundies.
Also, I love how his "research" on gays consists of him finding one scat porn video somewhere. And then assuming all gays are exactly like that.
Mental note: Don't move to Uganda
Who wants to infect an entire country with HIV using needles
But guys...
dey eet da poo poo!
Good job religious missionaries, looks like you've managed to spread enough intolerance to incite mass murder.
Western intelligence agencies? This would be your cue to drug their leaders and place them in compromising positions with naked young male prostitutes.
Also acceptable would be particularly good photoshops coupled with an intentional lack of alibi on the part of the subject of the photoshop.
fuck you uganda i thought you would be cool with me entering the country
what a bunch of animals
What a fucking backwards country.
Why is it that African countries eat up the disgusting ideals of their former conquerors?
