Imagine if we did get Independence earlier !

[Muadib]

England and Wales decriminalized most consensual homosexual conduct in 1967.[23]That came too late for most of Britain's colonies, though. When they won independence in the 1950s and 1960s, they did so with the sodomy laws still in place.
Few of those independent states have undertaken repeal since then. This flies in the face of a growing body of international human rights law and precedents demanding that they do so. They disregard, too, the example of formerly colonized states like Ecuador, Fiji, and South Africa that have actually enshrined protections for equality based on sexual orientation in their constitutions.

LOL !!

Critical Thinking.. cannot beat it.

Maudib...your main man Bruce has a great opportunity to lead this kind of progressive change you posted above.

Seems he is more entrenched than Buju and Shabba......................

Yuh need fe rite him a lettah and ax him if him a eediat.

[Muadib]

LoL.. almost as much chance as Obama doing it...

[Exile]

You keep mentioning Obama in the same breath with Bruce? Whats' with that? BTW how come HL calling him your "main man"?

[Muadib]

Although Barack Obama has said that he supports civil unions, he is against gay marriage. In an interview with the Chicago Daily Tribune, Obama said, "I'm a Christian. And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition, and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman."

Regarding the main man thing.. don't know, don't really care.. ask HL..

[Muadib]

By the way.. what yuh think about Nelson Mandela ?

[HL]

[Exile]

An incredible person...don't share all his views.

[Muadib]

How is that possible ?

I thought you must share all the views of people you hold in esteem...

[Muadib]

He is incredibly consistent on his views of human rights...

Maximum rispek.. many people find that hard..especially when it touches on areas that are uncomfortable to them... but then.. that is the acid test..

[Exile]
