Horrible beyond words

I just read about this over at perezhilton.com and I have to say this is completely appalling. To imagine that in 2011 we are still getting news reports about these kinds of actions. This is truly horrible and saddening.

Words cannot properly describe how awful and disturbing this!
According to a new report, the Western Regional Minister of Ghana Paul Evans Aidoo MP has ordered the arrest of all gays in the country.
Here's what he said about his sickening decision:

"All efforts are being made to get rid of these people in the society."
Aidoo has put Ghana's Bureau of National Investigations and other security forces to the task, and he's even called on all landlords and tenants to "inform on people they suspect of being homosexuals."
This is absolutely horrendous! There truly aren't strong enough words to express how horrified we are by this.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the gays in Ghana right now, as well as their families, friends, and loved ones.

  1. Some parts of the world are still in the dark ages (people thought things were bad in Eastern Europe)

    And to make things even worse: the name of that troll Perez being included in the report!

  2. Truly shocking! You'd hardly think this was actually 2011 - some countries in Africa and the Middle East seem to want to go backwards rather than accept they have to be part of the real world... Jx
