Death penalty for homosexuals

Just received this email from avaaz, starting out has this:
"In 48 hours, the Ugandan Parliament may vote on a brutal new law that carries the death penalty for homosexuality. Thousands of Ugandans could face execution -- just for being gay."
They have an on-line petition against it, here's the link for signing it:

I'm sure the online petition will have a huge impact.

Yea. It would be pretty fucked up if it did.

It will be easy to evade execution by just going against your nature and pretending to be hetero unless you're already a "convicted homosexual". I bet this is what some Texans would do if the federal government had no power over them.

Sure, but you shouldn't have to pretend to be what you're not.
