Should have kept it in the closet.
Costs too much.
We can thank a few ‘effing lawyers on Scotus for releasing the faggot, trannie, woke and grooming menace on American society.
Same here.
According to Twitchy, the “aggravated homosexuality” the men committed was rape of a 12 year old boy and rape of a disabled man. Hallelujah, Uganda, for the righteous punishment for these horrible men:
