Why is Uganda attacking homosexuality?
April 18th, 2012
05:18 PM ET
Christiane Amanpour has an exclusive interview with the president of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni. She asks him about the controversies of the anti-homosexual legislation in his country and what his feelings are about gay people. Museveni maintains that before Uganda came in touch with Europeans, there were few homosexuals in that country. He also maintains, despite reports, that homosexuals have not been killed in Uganda.

B'se its not of God & Ug. is not going 2support such an act.
I am also against it but we also have to put into consideration the fact that if that is what people want to be, so be it, its their life
The president apparently has not justified the creation of the law. On exhibitionism, why only punish the gays?
Im A kenyan and It would be very interesting to hear my president's view on LGBTI issues. In his 2 terms in office he has kept clear of this topic. can you try to contact hi??
Uganda is based on Christianity so why allow dat and again western countries should try to respect Africans and their culture . and i don't think there is any African parent who can take dat from his son or daughter.
FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY.
Thanks for the link we have a coworker who found out to day her brhtoer that she thought was fine and dandy and had moved last week just was rescued from the top of his roof.
Gay is not support in Africa becos is satanic act. Helo Amanpour
Why do u western journalists sink our African Presidents that low to discuss this kind of rubbish when our continent has far more serious matters to contend with? Ask them about corruption which is rampant and killing off the continent! Take that Rubbish back to where it began...
Charity Twinomugisha do you realize how contradictory your statement is
Ugandans need to sit back and let gay people be, most of us are just corrupt hypocrites that pull out the christian card whenever the G word is mentioned.
Let's respect every ones culture. If that's wht the country believes on so be !!
Wat ar those Westerners promotin'??? Everythin' should be legalised. Maybe you guys should start fightin' for the legalisation of armed robbery child abuse in YOUR part of the world.
One thing people like to do is point out how evetnrhiyg is bad now, and how we really have to go back the good old days. Not do anything, but talk a lot.I'm too lazy/busy preparing for classes to look it up, but I read in Montaigne a few days ago how he thought the people of his age were so much worse than his grandfather's or father's generation. Montaigne wrote in the late 1500s. If I remember right, there was an ancient Greek philosopher who said much the same a couple thousand years back. It seems the present as a rule is universally a failure, and the past was always awesome (except when it was the present, because then it was hell on earth).
This is the theory of the devildom
