Uganda Proposes Death Penalty For Gays!!!
We are so thankful we don't live in Uganda!!!
Politicians in Uganda have proposed a bill regulating the death penalty for gay Ugandans who are infected with HIV and the imprisonment of homosexuals!!!
The bill also says members of society who are friends and family of/associate with homosexual Ugandans could face the same jail sentence!
So, so disgusting!
Isn't it 2009????
The bill states anyone who "aids, abets, counsels or procures another to engage of acts of homosexuality" could face up to seven years in prison, while any member of society with "religious, political, economic or social authority" who doesn't "report" a gay Ugandan could go to jail for three years!
The most disturbing section of the bill would regulate a death sentence for "active homosexuals living with HIV or in the cases of same-sex rape" and life in prison for people "convicted of a homosexual act."
The bill came about after a number of preachy conservative Christians visited Uganda and informed the Ugandans that homosexuality could be "cured" with therapy!
Oh, really????
"In the beginning, when the missionaries brought religion, they said they were bringing love," said Ugandan gay activist, David Cato. "Instead they brought hate, through homophobia."
And on the homophobic side of the argument…
School teacher David Kisambria told reporters he believes the influence of the Western world has turned their kids gay!
"The youths in secondary schools copy everything from the Western world and America," said Kisambria. "A good number of students have been converted into gays. We hear there are groups of people given money by some gay organizations in developed countries to recruit youth into gay activities."
It's like a secret gay society!
…Except not.
Protests against the bill by gay-rights activists in New York and Washington have already taken place, while a protest in London is scheduled for this Thursday.
Let your voice be heard!!!

This Would Only Happen To 
Tiger Paid For Ho's Lipo And Other Juicy Goodness!
Can you say Hitler? Disgusting. "….people given money by some gay organizations in developed countries recruit youth into gay activities" beyond laughable.
God does not condone (right spelling?) death/murder for a person choosing to be who they want to be. Although I don't agree with the whole gay marriage thing, killing off gays for their life style is not a human's right to decide. Aids is now a heterosexual issue as well. Where is stemmed from is questionable. That country's leaders will answer for it at one point in time.
That made me cry
this is horrible! fucking "Christians" - they're such fear-mongering haters! people like that are no better than the hypocrites that used to burn people at the stake in Salem
Previous historic examples of idiocy: McCarthyism and the hunt for Communists…Salem Witch Trials. The whole idea is just as absurd as the situations listed, not to mention Human Rights activists would neeeever let this happen.
Oh for the love of frickin' God!!! Absolutely stupid the the nth degree!!! How does your sex life define you as a person?? Seriously?? Are these idiots referring to some kind of whacked Hitler texts for their proposals? And they think it will stop at gays, just wait! First it will be gays and then some other group of peoples that don't fit in with their ideals. Bad juju man, real bad.
While I in no way SUPPORT or ENCOURAGE people being gay, I think its wrong for them to be killed, just cause they're gay. The need prayers and love…
I read that in the paper. That is so fucking stupid. Love is love and those who think otherwise, get the fuck over yourself.
to bad you dont live in Uganda, notice i didnt say to bad you dont have HIVs, because you more than like do perez.
Re: Carlena – Not all Christians dear. Please don't judge. Look at the Episcopal Church. Wonderful, loving things are happening. You do know, part of the Episcopal Church drew a line in the sand and actually went to Uganda to join with an Anglican Church against homosexuals being actively involved in the clergy. I believe they have since moved on from that association but the MAIN EPISCOPAL CHURCH BELIEVES ALL ARE WELCOME AT THE TABLE OF GOD. In fact, the second gay Bishop was just voted in last weekend. I believe there is also an open policy at most Lutheran churches.
There is danger in generalizing. Great danger.
God is love. Jesus preached love.
Re: buck – On this one I am going to have repectfully disagree with you.We have alot in Common(Our hatred of the man child aka Obama) but I have a gay step brother and a gay uncle and they are both two of the coolest people I know!I don't think of them as mentally ill.Sometimes I think you say this stuff to wind up Sweet piece!
Re: RedWingsFan – 112 It's true! Buck loves me! ox SP
I still can't believe we send financil aid to these primitive backwards ass holes. I can't stand hearing about shit like this. I mean, it's perfectly excptable for a man to rape a little girl in Africa with ZERO consequences, but GOD forbid two men love each other.
sad sad sad.
people don't realise that the majority of people affected by HIV/Aids are women!
BORING. Perez - can you please open a 'gay rant' site so I don't have to read these posts. Its none of your business what happens in Uganda - let the Ugandan's sort it out - and get back to what this site is meant to be about - CELEBRITY GOSSIP.
Coming out to a lot of people in the US is equal to a death sentence. They will be rejected by anyone in their life. It's almost worth then death.
Re: Hanapana – so christians caRe: Hanapana – umm seriously? so it's ok for the christian religion to label homosexuality as a sin? and i really don't know which world your living in but christians (some, not all) are terrorists!!especially in the U.S.A more than any other country in the world, obviously Americans wouldn't know this though
and you know what else is pissing me off (besides this proposed bill) that some many of you stupid americans are generalizing africa!its a CONTINENT!!This would be like generalizing "American" laws to all of North America!(oh and by "american" I mean the rest of north and south america are seriously fed up of you guys calling yourselves "American"since everyone who lives in north and south AMERICA is american!that means everyone from chile to canada!
Re: tinkerbell609 – Whos is to say it is not norml or healthy? Is that really in the books? i myself am not gay, but some of my best friends are gay and they are more sane than any of the idiots who think this acceptable. They are not out there hurting or terrorizing people. People who have such a big problem with this have insercurities with themselves.
Shut up Perez! not everyone thinks being gay is so great, there are some cultures and countries who don't condone Homosexuality to protect its people and they have a right to, the same way America thinks they have the right to do go into another country and start a war and kill thousand of innocents to "protect it's people"
Western travelers would do better to look to Kenya, Tanzania, or Rwanda to fit their sub-Saharan travel needs. Hopefully Amnesty International will be all over this shit.
Re: All American –
"Too many young people think it's COOL to be gay. That's the truth."
You're fucking kidding, right???????? Teens who are actually brave enough to come out live in hell. Other teenagers take any obvious difference about anyone and make it a reason to express hatred and abuse.
Re: pusspuss –
I bet Jews love you.
Re: Mrs Chace Crawford – So you believe it's acceptable to kill people over a private preference???
OMGOSH !! wtf .. im honestly speechless right now and have no clue what to say other then this is pretty much the worst thing ive ever heard !!
Damn you Carrie Prejean!
This is the same country that Reverend Muthee (the guy that exorcised "witches" from Sarah Palin by laying on his hands and praying.) hails from. She believes in this crap as well as all of her evangelistic followers. That's 20% of American voters. Be afraid, very afraid and get active!!!
hmmm evil stories always comes back from those missionary christians…
I assume it's such a big deal b/c a man raping women with aids is fine. but a man raping a man with aids? we gotta stop that shit immediately.
why don't we ship all the conservative christians to Uganda? they seem to fit in there.
then the rest of the civilized, enlightened world will pass equal rights for all people.
Culling the herd. Their country has been destroyed by AIDS, a virtual dessimation on the population. Who needs more of it spread far and wide. It ain't pretty, but at some point there has to be some sort of self preservation. Uganda is not like the United States. Try living one day in that toilet with the crime and disease and pestilence. Let them do what needs to be done. Only the soft lazy greedy fatz of the ol' US of A have the luxury to sit around spouting nonsense and criticizing what everyone else says and does.
Being friends of however is ridiculous. But what they think they are accomplishing is the deterrment of homosexual activity. They won't really succeed at that this way, but it is very interesting as far as the year we live in and how far we THINK everyone has come, as well as us. Just wait. This is only the beginning of things like this.
This is really sad
Re: pureface –
what the fuck is wrong with you? like really?
you're an ignorant human being that has zero idea what they're talking about.
Yes, Uganda is a terribly corrupt nation, what do you expect? They've been terrorized by civil war (by the rebel force the LRA run by Joseph Kony) for 22 years now. Soo.. how about instead of nuking them, we try to actually show compassion.. and maybe try to look past human apathy so we can save those people (highest population being children, by the way), and avoid passing legislature as horrific as this post. k? k.
I just wrote a paper on this yesterday for a comparative politics class. There is no way this proposed bill will pass. Countries like Sweden that have had a long relationship with Uganda has threatened to take away $50 million in aid. Also, this would be government-sponsored genocide, which is clearly against the Human Rights chart. It's definitely ridiculous and very sad for the people of Uganda who are homosexual but keep in mind this is a country that is going through a civil war and has one of the highest number of child soldiers in the world. They have a lot of problems to deal with…
Disgusting is having another mans shit on your dick.
wowwwww. that is disgusting, so so so horrible.
I can't believe this is happening in 2009!
There are also three prominent Americans involved in this.
Author Don Schmierer, "sexual reorientation coach" Caleb Lee Brundidge & Preacher Scott Lively - MAY THEY ROT in HELL!!
These three American self righteous Bastards are responsible for Murder of innocent gay people in Uganda!
Re: Steve Drill – Or maybe the death penalty for homophobes will come first. *stares at Steve Drill*
once again lets give a loud round of applause to Ignorant Christians everywhere!!! Homosexuality is not a disease! It can not be cured because there is NO PROBLEM! Fucking christians claim nothing but love and god and blah blah blah. It's all bullshit. Hypocrites all of them, and you wanna know what the funniest thing of it all is? God hates nothing worse not pedofiles murders or rapist God hates NOTHING worse then a HYPOCRITE. I'm a straight girl with gay friends and I'm sick of how people treat them. Its fucking wrong.
Re: antho_2000 – you're a fucking retard
Re: Mrs Chace Crawford – thats absolutely ignorant. Just because you dont agree with homosexuality doesnt mean you can punish those who are. I dont agree with fat people wearing spandex that doesnt give me the right to kill them. WHY? Because it's their choice, and actually I dont believe that being gay is a choice it's WHO YOU ARE. So other coutries are simply not as progressive as america is and america is good but not GREAT or EQUAL but we are better than most. That DOESNT mean that other countries who are stuck in time with RELIGION as Governments are right.
This is so disgusting. They're trying to downplay their corrupt government and distract the citizens with this controversial bill.
I'm so greatful I live in Canada, other wise a whole bunch of my friends would have been put to death. Awful, just awful.
Re: Hesnotintou – wow…ur fucking disgusting. how bout we start with u instead? wut good do u do for society?
Uganda is a disgusting country. Their national life expectancy is 53 years old!!
Sounds like they are looking for lame excuses to blame for all their failures.
So sad.
I wonder if gay people in Uganda can seek asylum in another country?
it should be illegal in any country for anyone to spread HIV……wait it is….isn't it?
Re: Stalincat – there's too many peoples/ not enough money/ guy in government is being paid by a sicko/he's on drugs….the list goes on?
Re: duelastar –
# 141
Yep. I have long admired Canadians' approach to same sex couples. You seem to "live and let live" much better than Americans. Good for you ..
this is old news but i'm glad you're FINALLY talking about this important subject, PERVy, instead of the wrong called homosexual "marriage"..
I'll pray for them.
totally wrong and disgusting!
this just gives another idea of how much human beings still have so much room for improvement. this is totally crazy!
Re: PacDan – HOLLER.
Even though I am not in agreement with the homosexual lifesyle I still would certainly never advocate the death penalty. It's not for Christians to judge. We can pray for them and talk to them but mistreating gay people is not what God would want at all. In the end only God can judge them.
A few years ago, I spent a month in Uganda doing humanitarian work all over the country. I was involved in a highly political organization and worked very closely with the government in Uganda. I work with key members of their parliament and even the President, Yoweri Musevini. I am sick about the choices that the government of Uganda has decided to make in the past several years and I am truly sad for the people in Uganda that have to live through this type of oppression. When I first arrived in Uganda, i was told by one of our body guards that "It is not good to be gay, homosexuality is not something you should discuss while you are in-country. You are all here as ambassadors from the US and homosexuality should not be spread."
REALLY!?
Hello homophobes and so-called "Christians", and may I add FUCK YOU!
Hello homophobes and so-called "Christians!" Have a nice day!
This is one of the most hypocritical things I've ever heard! I AM a Christian and even have friends that are missionaries. THIS IS REDICULOUS!
If these "Christian Missionaries" Are spitting this hate about putting homosexuals to death, they need to start asking themselves "WHat would Jesus do?". If they really knew anything about God and JEsus they would realize that "God is Love" and life is sacred.
God created every person on this earth and for them to push the death penalty THEY are murderers! What is worse? Being gay? Or being a murderer?
ANyway thats all………….
"The bill came about after a number of preachy conservative Christians visited Uganda and informed the Ugandans that homosexuality could be "cured" with therapy!
Oh, really????"
REALLY!
"The psychiatrist who led the team that deleted homosexuality from the diagnostic manual in 1973, now says homosexuality may sometimes be changeable."
"Like most psychiatrists," says Dr. Spitzer, "I thought that homosexual behavior could be resisted–but that no one could really change their sexual orientation. I now believe that's untrue–some people can and do change."
I posted this about 4 other times. Even with links a few times. Someone keeps removing it.
Denial isn't a river in Egypt or something.
Re: pinkering – If you'd read it ( I know Perez loves to insinuate bad things about Christians) it doesn't say that Christians told them to put the to death. And they didn't.
[re=4577807]Re: mint_candy_apple I don't understand where do you come from saying that homosexuality is a mental health disorder? and does that mean that being heterosexual is the "normal and ok" way to be, who are you to determine whats normal or not…
[/re]
The norm says what is normal. Meaning the regular/normal practices of human being is not homosexuality.
