Kenyan journo Mark Mzungu gets nasty in an impassioned editorial on Ugandan gay activists, who recently held a press conference calling for equal civil and medical rights. Of that press conference, Mzungu writes:
One of the contradictions I came across this week in the Ugandan newspapers was a press conference called by homosexuals, asking to be left in peace.
A press conference is a sure way of attracting attention and this seems to be exactly what they wanted. If, as they say, people with this problem have been around a long time, why is it only now they are coming out in the open?
Oh, that’s easy: institutionalized homophobia and assholes who call homosexuality a “problem”. Namely: people like Mark Mzungu.
