In reply to Maazi NCO. Maazi - After reading your defense of the standing ovation for Bahati, I can understand why you do not reveal your true identity.

I simply can’t stand all this ‘vicious politeness’ and the hypocrisy that drives it. I have nothing but utter contempt for the behaviour of people like ‘Maazi NCO MP’.

Fortunately, I know many decent Ugandans, and, in any case, am totally opposed to making generalizations about countries and/or groups of persons on account of insincere, supercilious, arrogant, mean and violence-loving individuals.

You obviously haven’t properly read the Bill, ‘Maazi’. Neither it seems have the BBC.

A won’t bother wishing you ‘good night’; I don’t believe in being insincere.

So it looks like the death penalty isn’t out of the bill at all. It’s just hidden under a reference to the penalty for “aggravated defilement” which carries, you guessed it, the death penalty.

So let’s work this out.

If you are convicted twice of throwing a party for gays to meet gays, then you are a “serial offender” because you’ve been convicted twice of a listed “related offence” (i.e., “promotion of homosexuality).

Serial offenders are subject to the penalty for “aggravated defilement,” and that penalty is death, according to Section 129.

There you go: they don’t even have to prove you’ve had gay sex, and they can still sentence you to death!

The Monitor report has the MPs shouting something a little different (Our bill, our kids) but the same enthusiasm for jailing and hanging gays remains.

This just gay propaganda all over again. Nobody in Parliament has any interest in getting anyone killed. Our interest is to ensure that promotion of gayism is quelled in our country and that no foreign country exercise veto power over our parliament. If we cannot influence lawmaking in US Congress, there is ABSOLUTELY no reason why US government and its European lapdog countries should have that right in Uganda. It really that simple !!!
