Please Vote Against The "kill The Gays"

Recommended Posts

i hope that you will join me in signing this petition against the kill the gays bill that could be voted on in Uganda within 72 hours.

 

i know that many of you have strong feelings about the gay issue judging by the full and rigorous debates we have enjoyed/endured here on manxforums, but i hope those of you who are against homosexuality are not so far down that path that you would believe that killing people you disagree with could solve anything.

 

i've signed it and shared it on my facebook, i hope you do likewise.

Seems to be the trend that these African countries are bringing in more and more backward and religiously motivated laws.

Very sad. The best bet for gay people in these awful regimes is to get asylum.

The bastards who push for this legislation need gunning down in a much needed coup, though I presume the same sort will replace them.

I'm an openly gay man myself and I am disgusted at the way in which these backward tinpot states behave toward homosexual men and women.

 

Unfortunately, the bigots who run that sort of nation see the world through very thick blinkers which makes them horrendously intolerant.

 

La Dolce Vita - It is indeed a well known fact that alcohol and tobacco consumption are proportionately higher in the gay community than elsewhere.

Im not quite sure about the gunning down, its not really the platform upon which a movement can be based.

I didn't mean to imply that such a thing would be the basis of a movement. I am just referring to a desire for some justice. Ideally any future government would fear the consequences of oppressing others. But that's not how the world works when the government has an army to rely on.

 

But an interesting issue about a movement. I would suppose such groups are inchoate in their development and very much underground. There isn't much room for campaign when a death sentence hangs over your head.

They are killing them anyway by cultivating widespread ignorance, and by having medieval healthcare systems. If they don't actually get to put them to a death sentence like Uganda most of them are already invariably sentenced to a life of ignorance and AIDS anyway.

No. The BEST way is for them to stay where they are and work to ensure that anti-homosexual legislation is rejected.

 

They have a responsibility to do so for themselves and future generations.

I am not surprised about that. Drug use, such as smoking and drinking, is proportionally higher in the gay community than the straight.

 

That has probably got a lot to do with the hedonistic lifestyle and nature of so many homosexual people.

What IS best is that they evaluate their own safety and if it is determined that their lives are at risk, they should go!

I would love to believe that this was a genuine thought.

 

However, I think it's more likely that you would prefer them to all stay where they were so they could be killed.
