Not only will it be a crime to be gay, but anyone who happens to be gay and married, even from a nation where such relationships are legal, can be tossed in jail with hard labor. Meanwhile, in South Africa, gays and lesbians can legally wed; such marriages there are enshrined in the constitution. Despite Nigeria needing significant assistance from the United States, our government should boycott Nigeria and block businesses from conducting business there. The United States has had a track record of consistently overlooking other nations' human rights abuses.

Man, what a catch-22 situation thing here for the Liberal set. It's like Darfur. It's horrible what's going on over there, but, you risk being politically incorrect if you let it known that it's Muslim Arabs who are killing blacks in Darfur. I mean, if you talk about it, you risk being anti-Islamic, and, if you DON'T talk about it, you risk being called an uncaring racist who doesn't care about the slaughter of black Africans at the hands of Muslim Arabs.

I don't follow you. Are you saying it is because Nigeria is a black nation that this is going on?

Yes, Muslim Arabs are perpetrating genocide in Darfur, they may even be using Islam as a justification for their actions. So what? Their heinous crimes don't necessarily reflect on Islam as a whole any more than the idiocy of Rev. Phelps or the actions of Christian terrorists reflects on Christianity as a whole.
