Plenty of folks our view liberal abortion policies as infanticide.

Guess it must be Friday, when my eyes generally start crossing from too much rading and writing. That should read “view our. …”

Yes, of course the international community has a role in rightly condemning inhumane treatment in any country. We walk a fine line with hypocrisy in our own country, of course. Plenty of folks our view liberal abortion policies as infanticide. And our own president has deemed the question of when life begins “above his pay grade,” while also refusing to support the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in his state of Illinois while still a senator there. We still have plenty logs in our own eyes.

Every country has it own laws. It is not fair to criticise the moral norms of a country.

I disagree. Sometimes, there are broader, over-arching moral standards that take precedence. Should we not criticize a country whose moral norms might include infanticide or torture?

In Uganda for example most men are married with children and are not gay but can u imagine how many people would get hurt if one day the dad in this family claims to have been raped by another man. It is unbelievable that you people accept this but in my view the gay people should quarantined while they wait for a psychiatric review and thereafter proper treatment.
