You, sir (?) are disgusting! You would actually want to execute someone simply because he/she found love with someone of the same sex?

You mean you 'doubt they wouldn't agree' that this is not right?

One part of the new law states that, not only does it apply to all acts of homosexuality in Uganda itself, whether committed by a foreigner or a citizen BUT the law also applies to ALL citizens of Uganda no matter WHERE they reside in the world. The law says they shall be EXTRADITED to Uganda to face a possible death sentence. So if 2 homosexuals have a rump romp here in the USA and one of them is from Uganda and the government of Uganda request we extradite that homosexual to face possible death, should the United States honour that request?

What the hell? Which particular American Republicans are promoting death to gays? That is absurd.

Yes but most Christians have at least modernized.

I do not see them blowing people up or calling for peoples death unlike Muslims. Actually, I do not see people of any other faith screaming about killing infidels like Muslims. When a Christian does something terrible, other Christians call him/her out on it. Muslims stay silent.

It happened in the past. That is regretful. Just like slavery happened and that is also regretful and terrible. But gays should NEVER be put to death just for being gay. Let them be with who they want. Let them love who they want. What is it to anyone?

Ok, for the record; as a born again Christian, I condemn this statement in it's entirety.

Ironically, the most famous Americans who would probably like to send gays to the death chambers are Democrats: Fred Phelps and most of his family.
