MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow has managed to elicit statements from the three U.S. ex-gay activists who, in March 2009, keynoted the conference which launched Uganda’s current antigay death-penalty and mass-suppression campaign.
The Anti-Homosexuality Bill calls for the nation to execute its sexually active LGBT and HIV-positive citizens — and to imprison family members, friends, doctors and pastors who fail to turn their LGBT peers in to police.
While the three activists step back from demanding an all-out death-penalty — some of them prefer mandatory brainwashing or life imprisonment — none regret having launched the campaign in the first place.
The conference lead organizer, the so-called Family Life Network, clearly expressed its intent before and during the conference and has remained active in the campaign since then.

“The group with which Mr. [Caleb Lee] Brundidge is associated, first, denied knowing anything about the bill’ existence, and asked us for a copy of it.”
Wow. Talk about an international hit and run.

These people will not condemn the legislation because they want this to happen in the U.S. Their homophobic rantings and ravings are indicative of their fear based hatred toward LGBTs. These so called christians are ignorant, xenophobic, extreme fundamentalists who need to be investigated by the FBI as possible domestic terrorists.
