Uganda Lawmaker Refuses to Withdraw Anti-Gay Bill

KAMPALA, Uganda – A Ugandan lawmaker on Friday refused to withdraw proposed legislation that would impose the death penalty for some gays and lesbians despite international condemnation and presidential opposition to a measure that could scare off foreign investors.

Only the well-dressed ones, sweetie.

How about you let gay people lead their lives and just concern yourself with raising happy children, not the phantom of homosexual recruitment in schools.

Oh, and while I'm bitching about tard-headed thinking...

South Africa is the only country that allows gay marriage. However, some South African groups have rejected homosexuality as "un-African" and gangs carry out so-called "corrective" rapes on lesbians. A 19-year-old lesbian athlete was gang-raped, tortured and murdered in 2008.

 

Corrective rape......

Come on now. God could have made it so that your wee wee wouldn't get hard if you stuck it in the wrong hole. But because he didn't, he wants humans to kill each other over things he could have prevented.

That, or humans are simply bat shit insane.
