"Gay" in the News: Uganda
After signing the bill criminalizing homosexual behavior, the Uganda president is quoted, "This law was provoked by arrogant and careless Western-based groups that are fond of coming into our schools to recruit our young children," he said in a televised speech shortly after signing the bill. "Can somebody be homosexual purely by nature without nurture? The answer is: 'No.' "
He certainly seems to have failed to get the message about "born that way", doesn't he?
If that line don't fetch them, I don't know "gay" activism!
Somewhat ironic to see news media pictures of protest signs. Uganda reportedly has a high literacy rate of about 2/3. The signs are obvioulsy intended to be read by others, not Ugandans.

"Gay" in the News: Uganda Homophobes
Discrimination in Uganda. Homosexual behavior is criminalized.
Mr. Obama threatens to use harsh language in his vigilance against Uganda discrimination. Seems to be comparable with his concern for Syrian children and his golf game.
