No Rights for Gays?

http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/287642

“Peter Tatchell of the UK gay-rights group OutRage! says that the chief of the Scout Board of Uganda, David Bahati – who is also a Ugandan MP and is sponsoring the Anti-Homosexuality Bill – is proposing that all serial "homosexual offenders," including scouts and scout leaders, should be hanged, even children.”

A story like this cannot go ignored. The idea that we should hang homosexuals is nothing short of barbaric. Comparisons to the Nazis are often just hyperboles but in this case I would argue that it is apt. I am not familiar with the political climate in Uganda but, the fact that such a bill is even under consideration suggests a climate of backwards thinking. There should be no defending such a statement. Anyone who believes in justice and freedom will speak out against this vile hatred.
