Homosexuals have 24 hours to leave or die; Gambia (26th May 08 at 8:59am UTC)
http://www.advocate.com/news_detail_ektid54768.asp What are your thoughts on this? This is really sad in my opinion; I have a very open mind but limiting something like this; being killed for a belief, a preference I believe it is outrageous. This is apparently a new law in Gambia; and several other countries already have this as law. Believe it or not the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom are some of the few countries in the world that doesn't provoke this topic.

Just need to read some of the comments! sighs I don't know, it hasn't been broadcast anywhere else as news, so I'm questioning the reliability of it!

Other sources? http://www.gaynz.com/articles/publish/3/article_5986.php http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20080526/letters/letters3.html http://www.anorak.co.uk/twitterings/184144.html http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/3183 http://thepoint.gm/africa/gambia/article/2008/5/19/president-jammeh-gives-ultimatum-for-homosexuals-to-leave http://www.pinknews.co.uk/?p=7677 http://edition.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0703/13/acd.01.html http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0703/13/acd.01.html There are several hundred sites reporting this now. I talked to my old History Professor she said several countries in the world are doing it, it is a possibility it won't be long until the United States, England, Canada and other countries may be forced to be harsher on their laws. For my sake I hope she's wrong. ><

I too hope that. I do not believe that any of the 'larger' MEDCs would impose a law such as this. It's more the smaller corrupt countries that do... America & UK wouldn't do this, ever.

Honestly, I don't think the bigger, more civilized nations like the U.S., the U.K., and Canada, would ever do something like that. There are other countries that wouldn't do it, but I'm too lazy too list a bunch of random countries. Sure, in the U.S. things are going downhill in the government, but when the focus for homosexuals is letting them marry instead of killing them all we wont be forcing anyone out anytime soon. This all seems like a really stupid reason to start up another genocide. People that are homosexual are people just like everyone else. I don't believe homosexuality is right because I am Christian and that's what the Bible teaches, but I don't think you should go out and kill someone for it, or make them different.
