UN “SPREADING HOMOSEXUALITY”
Ugandan ethics minister, James Nsaba Buturo, has claimed that some UN member states are involved in a covert campaign to “impose homosexuality on the rest of us.”
Speaking at a press conference last Friday, Buturo told reporters “We have learned that they want to smuggle in provisions on homosexuality.”
He also reminded Uganda’s UN ambassador, Ruhakana Rugunda, of Uganda’s position on homosexuality, claiming that it is “unnatural, abnormal, illegal, dangerous, and dirty”.
Buturo insisted that the constitution affords no rights to sexual minorities. “They have been making claims that they are protected as a minority group. If we accept that homosexuals are a minority group then robbers are going to come to us to say that ‘we too are a minority group’.”
LGBT Ugandans have spoken out, stating: “We deserve equal rights and protection under the law and constitution. We don’t deserve to be demonised and falsely accused in the name of ignorance of who and what we are.”
Homosexuality is illegal in Uganda and carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
….. Geez, talk about being paranoid. “… smuggle in provisions on homosexuality.” What the hell does that mean? How ironic to be called an “ethics” minister when he himself clearly has no ethics. He is promoting the degradation, humiliation, suffering, torture, and killing of fellow citizens and human beings, or doesn’t that matter to one who is blinded by fear and self-loathing.
Or better yet, why doesn’t he just shut the hell up!!
China doesn’t seem so bad anymore. The brightest spotlight on human rights violations in recent years has fallen on China. And while the detention of the Chinese government of anyone who they see as dissidents is atrocious, the biggest battleground for human rights will be African countries. The Gambias, Ugandas, Nigerias of the world are allowing outdated tribal and religious superstitions and prejudices, which should have no platform in the modern world, to be expressed by by their leaders and accepted by sluggards who find it easier and more amusing to hate than to understand that the word is inhabited by all types of people, rather than demons, evil spirits and witchdoctors.
It seems that the fight for egalitarianism started by the Greeks oh so long ago will never be completely won.
