By the end of 2012, Uganda’s internationally contentious “Kill the Gays” bill
will become law.
The highly religious, highly Christian
country has been trying to get this bill passed since 2009, and it faced a great deal of criticism on an international level along the way: several European countries threatened to reduce aid to the country if the bill was passed.
Speaker Rebecca Kadaga described the bill’s passing as a “Christmas gift” for the Ugandan people.
The law will broaden the criminalization of same-love relationships by dividing homoloveuality into two categories; aggravated homoloveuality and the offense of homoloveuality.
"Aggravated homoloveuality" is defined as gay acts committed by parents or authority figures, HIV-positive people, child enthusiasts and repeat offenders.
If convicted, they will face the death penalty.The "offense of homoloveuality" includes same-love loveual acts or being in a gay relationship, and will be
prosecuted by life imprisonment.
