A U.S.-funded health project in Uganda has suspended operations after police arrested a staff member on suspicion of promoting homosexuality, highlighting the mounting legal risks confronting the gay community in the east African state.

Uganda enacted legislation in February that strengthened punishments for anyone caught having gay sex, imposing jail terms of up to life for "aggravated homosexuality" - including sex with a minor or while HIV-positive.

If she broke the law, throw her in jail. That’s right I said it! All these people are doing is making countries despise us for no reason. They don’t speak for me. You want to help these people, then help them. Don’t forward the agendas of the state department.

Why don’t these homos go back “in the closet”. It would be better for everyone.

Why would they do that? They’ve tasted power in America, just as the Brownshirts did in Germany. Good thing many nations are punching back.

Uganda vs. Agenda.

Hmm, who’s gonna win? While technically they could bust what happens in closets, this isn’t even CLOSE to that discreet.

Maybe it won’t be enough for them to infiltrate the Marines. They will want a separate Gay Corps who will be in charge of attacking everyone who is “intolerant.”
