QuoteBloomberg  is reporting that Uganda's political leadership has decided to drop the death penalty and lifetime imprisonment from their proposed Anti-Homosexuality Act:

But it looks like another idea taken directly from the three-day conference last March is finding its way into the bill — forced conversions:

In addition to formulating punishments for the gay people, the bill will also promote counseling to help "attract errant people to acceptable sexual orientation," said Buturo.

Srsly! People with issues about other people who have issues with issues they have no control over should be shot.

Maybe we need to kick them all in the butt!
