amberdreamsThis is religious fundamentalism at its worst - if we can help stop a government passing an insane law that will sentence gay people to death just by signing a petition, we should.
This is what it says:

This is what it says:
To President Museveni of Uganda, Members of the Review Committee, Parliament, and donor governments:
We stand with citizens across Uganda who are calling on their government to withdraw the Anti-Homosexual Bill, and to protect the universal human rights embodied in the Ugandan constitution. We urge Uganda’s leaders and donors to join us in rejecting persecution and upholding values of justice and tolerance.No get over there and sign, please!
