...and now a few words from the much feared and hated ´satanic´ opposition:

¨CHRISTIANS AGAINST THE ANTI-GAY BILL¨

·In solidarity as a Christian against the anti-gay bill before the Parliament of Uganda·

¨I am a conservative Christian and I have watched on in horror as my church leaders (Anglican) endorsed the anti-gay bill but are opposed to the death penalty as if that is a concession.

I can't believe that our pastoral mentors who are always stressing that we are all sinners, and that we should forgive fellow sinners could agree to such a hate-filled law...¨

...¨I can not trust politicians nor government as custodians of "morality" one bit and doing so will be laughable, giving them such wide ranging discretion and power will only lead to it's abuse. I will not leave a thief to guard my house! A crime that is next to impossible to prove, is the easiest to abuse, and is one which should not have such punitive punishment. Wait when opponents of this government start being indicted in court with shady witnesses, and their fortunes are left to the mercy of the court, it's one's word against the other and so, the verdict of guilty or innocent will be 50/50 irrespective of guilt or innocence of the accused. (Even pastors have taken to accusing each other of homosexuality)...¨

¨I for one as a Ugandan, fear what lies ahead, this year has been the year of hatred.¨ read the entire eye witness account of the corruption, blaming and shaming already underway in Uganda, click HERE

UPDATED: November 10,2009

KAMPALA, Nov 9 (IPS) - The Ugandan government will put to death gay citizens repeatedly caught having sex and throw into jail those who touch each other in a "gay" way, if a new proposed Bill becomes law.

Archbishop Henri Luke Orombi, Uganda

Most appallingly, it is Uganda’s Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi who is spreading the slanderous gossip:

In April 2009, Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi said, “I am appalled to learn that the rumours we have heard for a long time about homosexual recruiting in our schools and amongst our youth are true. I am even more concerned that the practice is more widespread than we originally thought. It is the duty of the church and the government to be watchmen on the wall and to warn and protect our people from harmful and deceitful agendas.” click HERE

READY OR NOT ALERT: The Votes Are In! Two African-American Gay Candidates Win on Election Day

¨Despite the setback in Maine for LGBT equality, there were wins for the majority of the 79 LGBT candidates who were running for public office around the country. Notably, two African-American candidates―Charles Pugh and Jass Stewart―were among that group of newly elected officials.¨

History was made in Brockton, Massachusetts. Jass Stewart, 38, became the first African-American person and the first openly gay member of the city council in its 128 year history.

Charles Pugh went from being a former FOX2 television journalist to the first openly gay president-elect of the Detroit City Council.

ALERT: Has GOD been busy (again) instructing people to Hate and Kill one another?

Heads up!

Doesn´t any of this mounting EVERYDAY VIOLENCE seem sicker than usual to YOU?

Why are religious zealots and right wing politicans encouraging bloodshed/warmongering, greedy practices, rebellion/sedition and reporting endless justifications for such selfrighteousness and selfishness? Why do the selfnamed ¨holy¨ have so many personal encounters with a God who clearly instructs them to FEAR and HATE and SLANDER others in Gods name? Demonize? Exclude? Despise? Shoot? Kill?

Why are drugged out/addicted talk show hosts and a irresponsible/uninformed smug exGovernor from Alaska Grandstand and claim that God is working miracles in their culturally and emotionally corrupt and obviously deranged personal lives?

Why are thieving and corrupt Archbishops and other religious thugs from Africa/beyond coming to the United States, Canada and England to organize anti-LGBT ministries and steal parish properties after aligning with bigoted cohorts? Why are Americans/others terrified of their LGBT brothers, sisters, coworkers and friends all of a sudden? Why are Americans falling through the cracks of their once spiritually and emotionally sound lives?

Why is a Ex President and Vice President, who instigated TWO WARS and near ECONOMIC RUIN in The United States, proclaiming God is working well by generating more destruction causing more fear and hate and everyday confusion and validating social ills and ruin?

What manmade fundamentalist ¨selective religiondriven insanity¨ is CAUSING multiple mass murder outbreaks, weekly and vicious hatecrimes, rapings, excluding, sexual slavery, exploitation of the poor, drugging, hiding, lieing, rampant alcoholism as well as justifying murder in the name of a God who COMMANDS ALL OF US to Love oneanother in Peace?

Who authorized obsessed and dangerous ¨religious¨ people to PREACH MARGINALIZING TO OTHERS and lay the foundation for FEAR and HATE on such a grand and reoccuring international scale that there is nowhere to avoid their vileness and judgmentalism in the World?

Why are lost souls encouraged by the example/word of some contaminated religious leaders to blow themselves up or exclude and/or harm and abuse others in everyday society in the name of God?

UGANDA/HOMOPHOBIC HYSTERIA: Born-again, rigid, fundamentalist, revivalist Christians bring bigotry to public policy process

Religious Bigots incited by Buturo and Bahati are more dangerous to UGANDA than gays and lesbians.

Political Scientist and Analyst Okello Lucima writes about the anti-homosexuality bill.

¨The press in Uganda this week is awash with homophobic hysteria against Gays, Lesbians, Bi-Sexual and Transgender (GLBT) Ugandans. This overt and shameless discrimination against a minority population of our citizens flows from the fact homosexuality is criminalised in Uganda. As if this was not enough suppression of personal freedom and civil rights, Ndorwa West Member of Parliament (MP), David Bahati, has tabled a private member’s bill proposing a series of measures to control and punish GLBT activities in the country, including the death penalty for gays and lesbians caught living and expressing their sexuality.

This is not only cavalier violations of human rights, but a dangerous hate campaign and incitement to harm or kill members of the GLBT in Uganda. The people of Uganda, and all people of good will, must not sit and watch while this happens. The sponsors of the bill, their supporters and political leaders- inside and outside parliament- must be identified, isolated and ostracised by the entire civilised world that respect difference and diversity. Most democratising societies have laws that criminalise purveyors of hate and incitement of hatred against a person, persons or communities; and have robust bill of rights that protect citizens and minorities. Uganda should not be an exception.

However, it is not surprising that the state should be seeking such kind of personal control, to the extent of wanting to police what people do in their bedrooms, and who else they do it with and whether their partners are of the skirt or trouser wearing sorts.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, Uganda

First, this comes about because of the nature and character of the Ugandan state: it is a military dictatorship that shot its way to and kept itself in power by military force. What there is in terms of a fledgling parliamentary democracy is sheer gloss of veneer for the consumption of the democratic tourist. For twenty years it outlawed political parties and suppressed freedoms of association and assembly, and the press is routinely knuckled. It rules by decree, not through free and open, well-informed debate in a deliberative, democratic process. Therefore, like all autocrats, the Ugandan ruling clique is not about to deviate from the age-old practice of control and micromanagement of all the affairs of state, and particularly the censorship and directing of the thoughts and behaviour of its citizens. Control freaks love uniformity but are threatened by freedom, diversity, and difference...¨
¨Ethics and Morals¨ Minister Nsaba Butro, ¨born again, rigid, fundamentalis, revivalist Christian.¨

...¨The second reason why the hate campaign against GLBT is not surprising is that most of those connected to state power, for instance Nsaba Buturo & Co. are born-again, rigid, fundamentalist, revivalist Christians who bring to the public policy process and the management of state affairs, their religious bigotry that they pass off as public morality and ethics. They completely ignore the fact that although Uganda is a majority Christian nation-state, there are people of other faiths, as well as non-believers, to whom the Muslim and Christian moralities they are so quick to refer to, cannot and should not apply. In any case, the Ugandan state is separate from the Church or Mosque, and it would be prudent for public servants to refrain from using and imposing the teachings and morals of one religion on the diverse people of Uganda, with pluralities of religion, faith, spiritual and moral inclinations...¨

Archibishop Henri Luke Orombi, Primate of the Anglican Church of Uganda and Gafcon schismatic who is causing serious problems between liberal and conservatives at The Anglican Communion.

¨...Obviously, their positions on GLBT people are directly lifted from the dispositions and teachings of their churches. We all recall the continuing controversy over ordination of gay priests and the blessing of gay marriages in the worldwide Anglican Communion which has caused a serious doctrinal and church practice schism between conservative and liberal wings of the church. It is this struggle into which the secular state is being enlisted. The democratic forces and the people of Uganda must oppose this interference, attempt to suppress our civil rights, and fuse the state with the church. The state and the public policy process must be inoculated from religious particularities. But the NRM/A dictatorship have aligned its position on GLBT practices with church conservatives who reject a more liberal interpretation of Christian doctrinal positions on homosexuality. Not only do church conservatives oppose the admission and ordination of homosexuals, but even women bishops and ministers within the communion are unacceptable. Furthermore, they insist that, marriage is only possible between a man and a woman, and for the purpose of procreation. Anything outside of this is regarded as unnatural and irredeemable sin...¨ read it all, from The Independent Uganda, Uncensored News, Views and Anaylisis, click HERE

ATTENTION PRESIDENT MUSEVENI: Protect ¨personal freedoms¨ and NO to ¨divide and rule¨ tactics for UGANDA!

Dear President Yoweri Museveni, Please BLOCK the anti-Human Rights, ¨Anti-Homosexual Bill 2009¨ legislation currently tabled at the Ugandan Parliament!

Please REMEMBER:

"The National Resistance Movement has an unwavering commitment to the respect of HUMAN RIGHTS and the sanctity of life.¨

¨We waged a protracted war against tyranny on a platform of restoring personal freedoms and the amelioration of the socio-economic conditions of our people – that is the cornerstone of our programme."

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, Uganda


¨President Museveni accepts heterogeneity as a matter of course because it mirrors the social spectrum of Ugandan society. He formed a broad-based government and demonstrated to Ugandans that although they had different political, social and religious backgrounds, they had a lot in common and a common destiny, contrary to the divide-and-rule tactics previous politicians had used to fragment Ugandan society.¨

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, Uganda


Mr. President:

Article 29(1)(a)of the Uganda Constitution entrenches ‘freedom of speech and expression which shall include freedom of the press and other media.´

PROTEST AT THE UGANDA DIPLOMATIC MISSION IN YOUR COUNTRY, CONTACT ALL HUMAN RIGHTS AGENCIES!

As you already know, the "Anti-Homosexuality Bill 2009." was recently tabled before the Parliament of Uganda. The Bill's provisions are draconian and among them are;

• Any person alleged to be homosexual would be at risk of life imprisonment or in some circumstances the death penalty;

• Any parent who does not denounce their lesbian daughter or gay son to the authorities would face fines of $ 2,650.00 or three years in prison;

• Any teacher who does not report a lesbian or gay pupil to the authorities within 24 hours would face the same penalties;

• And any landlord or landlady who happens to give housing to a suspected homosexual would risk 7 years of imprisonment.

• Similarly, the Bill threatens to punish or ruin the reputation of anyone who works with the gay or lesbian population, such as medical doctors working on HIV/AIDS, civil society leaders active in the fields of sexual
and reproductive health, hence further undermining public health efforts
to combat the spread of HIV;

• All of the offences covered by the Bill as drafted can be applied to a Ugandan citizen who allegedly commits them - even outside Uganda!

¨Sexual Minorities Uganda (SMUG) calls upon YOU, our partner, ally and/or FRIEND to action. Denounce this bill through a protest at a Ugandan Diplomatic Mission in your country on November 9th 2009, where applicable.
Urge the Government of Uganda to reject this Bill in its entirety.¨

PRA: Rick Warren exports bigotry to Africa

In March 2008, U.S. evangelical leader Rick Warren told Ugandans that homosexuality is not a natural way of life and thus not a human right. One year later, U.S. conservative evangelical and Holocaust revisionist Scott Lively (a resident of Massachusetts) addressed the Family Life Network and Ugandan members of Parliament in March 2009, saying legalizing homosexuality is akin to legalizing "the molestation of children or having sex with animals." read it all, click HERE

U.S. FEDERAL HATE CRIMES: Include Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

·The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Junior Hate Crimes Prevention Act·

Wednesday, October 21, 2009, Signed into Law by President Barack Obama!

President Obama signed into law the Matthew Shepard & James Byrd Junior. HATES PREVENTION ACT during a White House signing ceremony today.

International civil rights groups hailed passage of the bill, saying it puts the U.S. at the forefront of civil rights.

“The adoption and enforcement of this bill sets the stage for further comprehensive reforms at home and adds momentum to U.S. efforts to continue its leadership in combating the scourge of hate crimes abroad,” Paul LeGendre, director of Human Rights First's Fight Discrimination Program, said in a statement.

The bill is named for Matthew Shepard, a 21-year-old student at the University of Wyoming who was killed in 1998 by two men he met in a gay bar, and James Byrd Junior, a black man dragged to death behind a pickup truck a year earlier in Texas. Shepard was beaten and left to die shackled to a post along a rural road near Laramie. Judy Shepard devoted herself to passage of the bill named after her son.

The bill defines hate crimes as those motivated by prejudice against race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and disability. It allows the Attorney General to assist cities and states in the investigation and prosecution of hate crimes.


House lawmakers approved a similar bill in 2007, but it sank in the Senate under the weight of a VETO THREAT from President George Bush.

President Obama had urged lawmakers to approve the measure.
