Judge orders Ugandan paper to stop publishing 'gay lists'
It's hard to imagine the terror of living there.

"In the last edition, the newspaper promised to list 100 of what it called the country's top gays. The first edition listed several gays and lesbians, with photos and addresses alongside a yellow banner reading "hang them."

In the temporary injunction issued Monday, Justice Musoke Kibuuka ordered Rolling Stone from further publication of names or pictures of anyone "perceived by the respondents to be gay, lesbian, or homosexual in general."

2. Disgusting
I think this is just disgusting. Everyone deserves to live freely without discrimination, or being persecuted.

3. Good For That Judge!
I cannot begin to imagine the horror that GLBT people must be living under. And to think that "good Christians" like Lively are at the root of this. I pray to Goddess before I go to sleep to help these poor people and protect them.

4. This Situation Isn't.......

a simple matter of silly discrimination.... please pass the salt.....


This is fucking Terrorism! They are advocating the murder of people.....


Lets just change the "dirty Queers" for another minority..... no one.... I promise you no one would find it just a matter of simple discrimination.... this is a fucking death sentence handed out by Christian Terrorists......


These people are not only a danger to Africa.... but a definite threat to the United States, as that is where the planning, money, and instigation is rooted.......


... and for those that don't give a shit about Queers.... they will, just as they did in Germany.... come after you too :-)
