Uganda court defends gays

Gays in Uganda are forced into hiding after their identities and photos are printed in a local newspaper.

A High Court judge in Uganda has ordered a local newspaper to stop printing photographs, names and addresses of the country's gay people.

Human rights groups say that homosexuals have been attacked following the publication of a newspaper article calling for their deaths.

1. man, the homophobes in uganda go hard in the paint with it

I mean, WTF? When they get a wrong idea, they don't let up--they take it all the way to death.

they don't seem to be able to grasp what the red ink'd passages in the new testament teaches.

Ignorance is dangerous no matter what its form.

thank god there is some sanity on the high court there... someone is using their brains and not
their feelings or their religion as an excuse to murder and destroy.
