NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Kenya’s High Court on Friday upheld sections of the penal code that criminalize same-sex relations, a disappointment for gay rights activists across Africa where dozens of countries have similar laws.

The judges’ unanimous ruling in the closely watched case was followed by activists’ vows to appeal. Many in Kenya’s vibrant gay community had hoped the court would make history by scrapping the British colonial-era laws and inspiring other countries in Africa to do the same.

Kenya’s most famous son is deeply saddened. As is his husband.

The AP always stands ready to speak up for the Leftist coalition.

Kenya, Kenya!   Maybe if Barry had stayed a bit longer in Kenya the native son would have acquired social behaviors more to your liking?   Apparently Kenya is not so enamored of Barry that they would change their votes to keep him gay happy.

Yeah, how vibrant can you be if you can get arrested for it?
Is there a vibrant community of counterfeiters too?

Future generations will consider 21st century America and Europe to have been as depraved as 20th century Americans and Europeans considered the decadent Roman Imperium to have been.

The shallow "Millenial Generation" speaks of current depravity with an air of fresh discovery.

Homosexuality has been a part of life since pre-historic times. There's nothing new about it.

However the "Millenial Generation" has been poorly educated and maleducated. They have been fed a diet of foolishness by their Leftist university professors, Hollywood, Democrat politicians, and the Democrat Propaganda Machine (aka the mainstream news media), and they were neither intelligent enough nor interested enough in education to reject it. The price they will pay is heavy.

Absolutely.

The maleducated millennials probably think toenail fungus is something new also.

Yes, but Michael is “under cover” pretty much at this time.

That’s where Pelosi got the term

She looked at Michael/Michelle and saw she was still one foot in the closet, as is Barry

Buttigieg and his boyfriend should pay a state visit and tell these folks what his bible says. After all, he is the mayor of South Bend.

Are you kidding?

You probably don't know your Toenail Fungus History.

FUNGUS HAS BEEN ESSENTIAL TO HUMAN DIGNITY FOR, LIKE, FOREVER!

Toenail fungus is to be described and filmed A-Z!

Displayed in the classrooms K-12!

And celebrated 24/7/365! Got a problem with that, you bigot?
