It's no secret the Nigerian government's not keen on the gays: they've already got laws prohibiting gay sex. The country's legislature, however, is considering upping the homo-hating ante with a law barring any gay association.

The New York Blade reports:

The proposal under debate in Nigeria's House of Representatives would outlaw not just gay marriages, but any form of association between gay people, social or otherwise, and publication of any materials deemed to promote a "same-sex amorous relationship."

Though politicians hope to write discrimination into the constitution, human rights lawyer Akin Marinho says they could never pass because they violate the country's free speech laws. Because constitutionality matters when trying to establish hate-filled laws.
