Uganda's "kill the gays" bill is also a "kill the straights" bill, and blames uncensored 'net
You don't have to be queer to deserve death under Uganda's proposed homophobic hate law. If you are a straight Ugandan citizen convicted more than once of failing to rat out your gay friends, you too can be executed by the state for "aggravated homosexuality," because those two strikes make you a "serial offender."
wakingupnow points this out, and offers more analysis. The language of the bill itself is worth reading, and references the evil influence of "uncensored information technologies" as a corrupting factor.
