Uganda's Controversial Anti-LGBTQ Legislation Passes.

TL;DR Summary
Ugandan MPs have passed a bill that would make homosexual acts punishable by death, with only two MPs opposing the legislation. The bill also introduces capital and life imprisonment sentences for gay sex and “recruitment, promotion and funding” of same-sex “activities”. The bill will now go to President Yoweri Museveni, who can veto or sign it into law. Human rights campaigners have condemned the new move to enact the harsh law, describing it as “hate legislation”.
