If God wants homosexuals to be killed instantly, then why doesn't he kill them? Or are you perhaps suggesting that God wants his followers to kill them for him?
Therefore God did not create anyone to be homosexual. Why would He create something He finds abhorrent?
Didn't God create Mao Tse Tung, Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Josef Stalin, and Osama bin Laden?
It would seem your line of reasoning is faulty here.

All through history God delivered the law and expected his people to live it and enforce it. His role in punishing the law-breaker happens after death.
While the command to kill the law-breaker is not enforced after New Testament days (Thank you, God, for mercy) God's disgust at the behavior is still the same.

Excellent examples!! (thank you.) God created these people, just has He created those who would become infected with SAD. He did not however, twist them into the things they became, just as He does not infect people with SAD. Man through his rebellion and pride brought these diseases upon himself. The hitlers of the world arise not because of God but because man tries to elevate himself above God.
Adolf Hitler as a baby was just as cute and lovable as any other baby. He was not born evil. Somewhere along the line though he was damaged by his contact with this evil (just as young boys are damaged by their contact with SADs) and grew to become the twisted person we know as the tyrant Adolf Hitler.
All tyrants are atheists. A Christian cannot be a tyrant as a Christian KNOWS that there is One mightier than him and that the true Mighty One will require him to be accountable for his actions.

It would seem that while you may be 'one who knows' you are still not 'one who understands'

It should be very clear that SASU (such as it is) does not advocate violence against anyone, period. The Torah did call for a theocratic state to be developed and for that theocracy to make SAD punishable by death. G-d did not intend for lynch mobs to kill SADs. He prescribed a legal system that would handle SAD just like it handled anything else. Not personal violence but state justice.
Nobody suggests that the United States should become a theocracy (well, at least nobody serious). But the requirement that Israel make SAD punishable by death says something about the destructiveness of that particular perversion in G-d's eyes. G-d allows evil to survive for a long time without destroying it because His desire is that the people would turn to Him. He will let them live while He can, even if they harm the ones He loves (as Hitler obviously did) to allow them every opportunity to repent and be redeemed.
Some have hardened their hearts so completely that they will no longer hear the call to repent. When that happens they become nothing more than a snare for those who can be redeemed or those who are redeemed. In that case, G-d will "take them out" for the sake of the rest. Throughout the Bible He has rarely used this ultimate tool to protect His people, but He has done it.
Likewise, there were a few sins that demonstrated such a hard heart that the people were considered too dangerous to be left alive and G-d's people were to make these capitol offenses. They were capitol not because they were so evil, but because the sinners were so dangerous to the society around them. Murder is one such sin. SAD is another.
That reveals quite a bit about the nature of SAD.
Shalom.
