Ofcourse I support gay rights 110% and I think this is terrible, but I'd like to say a little in defence of Uganda's people. Because I visited the country a few years ago during college as part of a study program, I did some reading about the country's history. This issue of capital punishment is a minor issue compared to other problems and cannot be solved before other issues are solved.
- There are no civil rights at all in the country.
- The president Museveni is a dictator and ruling the country since 1980's.
- Years and years Joseph Kone's army of the lord was allowed by the president to terrorize northern-uganda. Including child soldiers and all.
- There are many, many tribes, religions (monotheistic and traditional) and cultures in Uganda. The national language is therefor English. It's an artificial unity.
- There's poverty and disease everywhere, life expectations are extremely low.
etc. etc.
