It's because we have country leaders who like to murder people.
The Ugandan Parliament is poised to bring back a bill that would sentence lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people to death in the next couple of weeks.
The speaker of the Ugandan parliament has promised she will pass the so-called "Kill the Gays" bill in the next two weeks -- she called it a "Christmas gift" for the Ugandan people. The bill would legalize the death penalty for LGBT people and people with HIV or AIDS.

This is why I believe in the sun, I do not believe any human whom cared as much a Jesus could dislike gay people, I mean he use to associate with prositutes and gay people so he has more in common with us anyway.
I wish that the church would publish the scriptures written by Jesus instead of this old fashion " hate" religion. To me that's all religion is a free reason to hate another human..
In some countries they are beheading people because of this. I know next year or Sydney Magdi gras march will be based around this, but we can't change the world alone...

This has actually made me feel ill...when will this be over? When I say "this" I mean the idea that someones', anyones' will can be lorded over anothers' as law...well...it looks like EVIL has been legalized yet again my friend. It is and always will be atrocious human behaviour. I'm actually ashamed. And feel ill over this.

Less of the insults. I do not take anything back so, in your eyes, I am part of the problem, I can live with that.
There will be no further comment to you from me so its Over and Out.

That's outrages, I didn't know that about Uganda, as nomdeplume says we should stop sending financial aid to these countries.

In Jamaica gays have a hard time also apparently, though not so extreme as Uganda.
And don't forget friendly Saudi Arabia where gays are beheaded.
Uganda is not alone in its attitude to gays, in fact most African countries have made life difficult for them and in South Africa 'corrective rape' is often carried out on lesbians. The UK government pays out about £70 million to Uganda and the US also contributes. Fortunately the Prime Minister and several MP's have protested to the Ugandan government which has told them to mind their own business. Foreign aid to countries which do not respect human rights should be stopped.
What is needed in many African countries is a return to British colonial rule. Many of the old governors of these countries were upper class British gays so would have a more liberal outlook than their African successors.

This is a violation of human rights. Uganda did remove the death penalty part,, but everthing still stands. Where is our Government on this? Uganda receives aide from the US.every year. This is disgusting. We need to do everthing to stop this.
