A member of Uganda’s parliament – which is currently debating ananti-gay bill that would punish homosexuality with death – said Fridayat a human rights forum he would kill his own son if he found out his son were gay.


The forum’s keynote speaker, Makau Mutua, immediately denounced MP Otto Odonga for his comment.“I am baffled by the kind of hatred you spew against gay people, including your desire to be a hangman,” Mutua tod the forum, Xtra, a gay news source in Canada, reported. “Would you apply to be a hangman if the person to be hanged were your son?”

The fact that this was a government official is disturbing to say the least! The unfortunate thing is there are parents here.......that think the same way. I have two friends that got thrown out of there house simply because of there sexuality. One was 15 when she got booted out. The other 17. We just all have to keep fighting!
