Irony in a Chicken Sandwich

[Lemur]

Perkins makes a good point about [Uganda's law] being misrepresented [...] They are trying to limit the spread of HIV and prevent sexual abuse of minors.

Uh-huh. The Ugandan law has been "misrepresented." Really.

Note that under the new Ugandan law, homosexuality is divided into two categories: "aggravated homosexuality", in which an offender receives the death penalty, or "the offense of homosexuality" in which an offender receives life in a Ugandan prison.

"Aggravated homosexuality" is what you're referring to, where the queer in question is HIV-positive, uses "intoxicating substances" (such as beer), is a "repeat offender," or has sex with a minor. That's the death penalty right there.

Just generally being fabulous nets you life in prison.

Explain to me how the bill is being misrepresented.
