Huckleberry Pie Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'm no LGBT myself, and I don't intend to trash at blacks, but if you ask me this is one of the many reasons why black people are the butt of racism: http://www.gaystarnews.com/article/uganda-officially-pass-%E2%80%98kill-gays%E2%80%99-bill121112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLlamaLlama Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Black people are at the butt of racism because slavery was validated with the lie that they were religiously and socially inferior to white people, and this is a lie that perpetuated even after the abolition of slavery. The Roman empire, when taking continents and countries did so because they were simply more powerful, instead of using race or nationality as some sort of stigma. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I get your drift, and I did digress, but still they don't have to resort to, like, killing off homosexuals. Even if they don't exactly agree to gay/lesbian/bi ideals, they shouldn't be treating them just as them blacks themselves have been subjected to as you mentioned. They already know what it felt like being shackled and enslaved - why the bloody fuck would they do the same thing to people who don't actually get in their way? And good riddance for them being sanctioned for this irrational behaviour. It made Hitler and the Ku Klux Klan sound pedestrian, if you ask me.

Little_Chestnut Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 This does not surprise me though. Being gay was already punishable by death in Uganda. Since acceptance of the LGBT community is becoming more widespread they are starting to feel cornered and are trying to take one last stand. It is wrong, but historically this is how things happen.
