How do most folks with HUSSEIN in their names view gay people?

I guess there aren’t enough “gay hate crimes” committed by “conservatives” in the USA, so the media have to import some stories from distant Uganda to try and prove their point.

Who didn’t see this coming. More people to put on the public dole. Perhaps they can go to Europe instead.

Yet, the same liberals are the first ones to say, “Well that’s their laws, we have to respect them.” when some Muslim country executes a Christian for “blasphemy” or having a bible.

That last sentence is chilling. Does it mean that, if elected President, Perry would reverse the American government’s opposition to the murder of homosexuals overseas?

The stupidity seems to be boundless with some people. I used to be amazed when I saw garbage like this in print.. Seeing it is the chilling thing. That someone can so strangely link such things together and that sane people can read it without puking.

How about the wholesale persecution and murder of Christians abroad? Oh, I’m sorry, we’re talking about the left here. Their “charity” only goes so far.

So a homosexual get murdered in Uganda therefore the blame clearly falls on the US if we dare to cut foreign aid? Wow, why couldn't I see that?!!!!

In the last nearly 14 years here, I have come across one person that thought homosexuals should be incarcerated, and have never seen someone suggest they should be killed or physically harmed.

I have some homosexual friends. On homosexual issues, I am honest with them. They obviously disagree with me, but we are respectful of each other.

If someone were to advocate violence against them, I would come to their defense in a heartbeat.

It is shocking to see someone on the Left be so incredibly stupid on this matter. I’m sure that even he if exposed to this sort of article written by someone else, would know down deep inside that it was a pack of lies.

Reading public, this is the type of person you support, when you’re a card carrying Democrat. Haven’t you had enough of it?

I was always told that we as Americans had to respect, admire, even emulate, the admirable African cultures.

I mean, who are WE to denigrate their stern and admirable laws, or dare to impose our decadent Western thought upon these noble people?

She Who Must Not Be Named should be ashamed of Herself, trying to impose Western culture over African cultures.

Truly laughable article. I actually chuckled at the way the author took Perry’s words “not endorsing the gay lifestyle” and turned them into “death to the queers!”. Even a log cabin republican would be embarrassed to have written such a screed.

I’m just wondering if in Uganda , where the HIV/AIDS rate is astronomical ,, if the proposed law wouldn’t save millions of lives.

Murder is murder. It is not a matter of what the motive was. For the victim, the seriousness of the offense is the same, whether is was because of prejudice, jealousy, envy, or theft.

The only thing we must assess is whether the act was non justifiable (as self-defense), and was purposeful.

If we do not stick to simple rules of justice, we are in big trouble. A society without justice falls back on the remedy of revenge, and history shows that this easily becomes endless vendetta.

What a tortured path of reasoning - Perry’s “I won’t make the same mistake as Obama” is the same as wanting to bludgeon homosexuals to death in Uganda - I worked with severe psychotics in a psychiatric hospital who showed better contact with reality......

The left will continue abusing the term "minorities" for political purposes until it has no sympathetic meaning. Is not everyone a "minority" of one sort to another, from people of Chinese descent to the hated "One Percent?"

“The GOP cozies up to gay haters” is a complete lie on the part of the author/propagandist.

I’m really surprised that they would bring David Kato into this. Last I heard he was murdered by a homosexual whom he refused to pay off....

“....But a police source, who preferred anonymity because he is not authorised to talk to the press, said the suspect confessed to killing Kato because he was reportedly tired of engaging in homosexual practices.

“We have taken him to Mukono Magistrate’s Court to record an extrajudicial statement,” the source said. “He told us that he killed Kato after he failed to give him a car, a house and money he promised as rewards for having sex with him,” the source said.

Kato is alleged to have bailed the suspect out of Kawuga Prison on January 24, where he been remanded on charges of theft of a mobile phone. The suspect told police that he stayed with Kato for two days. He accused the deceased of having sex with him and promising to pay him during the period.”

This guy is just a liar. Perry was talking about gay MARRIAGE and other contentious issues in developed countries, not killing or otherwise persecuting gays.

Let's look at what this writer SAYS Rick Perry said, for example:

Condemning the abuse of gay people overseas, he said, constitutes “a war with people of faith in this country,” a “war on traditional American values,” he specified, that “must stop.”
Notice how and WHERE the quotes start and stop? It's because the lying writer couldn't make the same point with a truthful, full quote. Here is the written statement at issue:
Statement by Gov. Rick Perry on Obama Administration’s Use of Gay Rights to Make Foreign Aid Decisions
Posted on December 6th, 2011

AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry today issued the following statement:

“Just when you thought Barack Obama couldn’t get any more out of touch with America’s values, AP reports his administration wants to make foreign aid decisions based on gay rights.

“This administration’s war on traditional American values must stop.

“I have proposed a foreign aid budget that starts at zero. From that zero baseline, we will consider aid requests based solely on America’s national security interests. Promoting special rights for gays in foreign countries is not in America’s interests and not worth a dime of taxpayers’ money.

“But there is a troubling trend here beyond the national security nonsense inherent in this silly idea. This is just the most recent example of an administration at war with people of faith in this country. Investing tax dollars promoting a lifestyle many Americas of faith find so deeply objectionable is wrong.

“President Obama has again mistaken America’s tolerance for different lifestyles with an endorsement of those lifestyles. I will not make that mistake.”
It's obvious that Perry is talking about gay marriage and similar issues, not gay bashing/ killing/ persecution.

Effing columnist is just a flat out liar.
