Uganda takes moral high ground, dismisses U.S. pressure on anti-gay law

22. Yes, Scott Lively and his ilk

I wasn't sure to what you were referring in your post so thanks for the clarification.

Mr. Scumbag Lively is actually being sued over his actions in Uganda.

I've been waiting for an update in the case but haven't read anything for several weeks now. Unfortunately, some of the legal sites I've visited (where the case is discussed) think he will probably avoid prosecution but if nothing else, hauling these hatemongers to court and exhausting their resources - especially their money - might serve as a deterrent. One can hope. The MSM can help by exposing these cockroaches to the light and their ties to members of Congress. I've read that Mr. Lively is lying low and has decided to refocus his energies on helping the disadvantaged. Well we all know that's a load of horse manure but at least we know the lawsuit has had some effect.

Here are several more in-depth articles concerning the history of the bill:
