The Third World Rejects "Western" Gayness....

In America we’re constantly assailed from the loony left with the idiotic drumbeat of how “racist, sexist and homophobic” we are.

I guess that’s true, UNLESS you compare us to...well, just about EVERYBODY else.

For instance, in Uganda, recently proposed legislation would impose the death penalty for some gay Ugandans, and their family and friends could face up to seven years in jail if they fail to report them to authorities. Even landlords could be imprisoned for renting to homosexuals.

While the Bill is still being debated, the Ugandan legislation, in its current form, would mandate a death sentence for active homosexuals living with HIV or in cases of same-sex rape. "Serial offenders" also could face capital punishment, but the legislation does not define the term. Anyone convicted of a homosexual act faces life imprisonment.

It also stipulates that anyone who "aids, abets, counsels or procures another to engage of acts of homosexuality" faces seven years in prison if convicted. Landlords who rent rooms or homes to homosexuals also could get seven years and anyone with "religious, political, economic or social authority" who fails to report anyone violating the act faces three years.

Gay rights activists here in the U.S. believe the bill is part of a continent-wide backlash because Africa's gay community is becoming more vocal.

It seems that many in Uganda, however, blame Western influences. "The youths in secondary schools copy everything from the Western world and America," said high school teacher David Kisambira. "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."

Uganda's ethics minister, James Nsaba Buturo, said the death sentence clause would probably be reviewed but maintained that the law itself was necessary to counter foreign influence. He said homosexuality "is not natural in Uganda," a view echoed by many Ugandans.

Bottom-line, homosexuality IS an aberration, a sexual deviancy in that it deviates from the accepted sexual norm.

Is it a “hanging offense?”

No, but it’s certainly not something worthy of celebration, any more than bestiality, necrophilia or group sex are things that should be celebrated and encouraged.

Far from being “racist, sexist and homophobic,” America has been the most tolerant nation on earth in regards to all three of those derivations and that’s despite its very vocal and intolerant political Left.
