6. NMMNG, that is a smear and a lie. Don't use this to justify your hatred.

[NMMNG]

7. So you're unaware of the "Kill the gays" law

Christians have been pushing in Uganda, and the virulent anti-gay hatred Christians have been pushing there? Stop pretending this is some Christian persecution crap when it's not.

Posted wrong place.

16. But it is okay...

...for them to burn someone alive to justify their hatred, huh?

[William769]

9. I'm a Christan. Do you think thats what I do?

People that paint with a broad brush do so out of ignorance.

[NMMNG]

10. Are you in Uganda?

Is it not safe to assume anti-gay violence in Uganda (or the majority of Africa) is likely perpetrated by Christians given the climate there?

[William769]

12. Did you refer to Ugandan Christians?

[NMMNG]

13. The OP referred to a heinous murder in Africa

Probably Uganda. That was what I was responding to. Accordingly I was referencing Christians in Africa, probably Uganda. You know, where African and US Christians have been promoting virulent anti-gay hatred (including a "Kill the Gays" law) to the hilt for years. I assumed people could figure that out. Apparently I was wrong.

8. Disgusting.

Sixth gay man believed to have been murdered in his home

The Star has uncovered a sixth victim of a possible serial killer who is preying on gay men.

Yesterday, the slaying in August of a gay man living in Northcliff, Joburg, was reported to The Star, and it bears almost all the hallmarks of the other killings.

He was a 47-year-old landlord who was discovered by his tenants bound and strangled to death in his home. The tenant, who requested anonymity, said he and a group of roommates had arrived at the Northcliff home on the night of August 12 to find the entrance to his landlord’s cottage ajar.

They entered and discovered the bound body just a few metres away from the door. There was no sign of forced entry onto the property and freshly emptied beer cans were found on a dining room table.

17. OMG!

I watched the entire thing with tears streaming down my face. Regardless of their religious affiliation there was a mob of people who stood around filming the murder of a a man sentenced to death for simply loving another human being. All those people standing around and taking part in this murder will all know what it feels like one day, when they end up in hell for their crime.
