It's interesting to note that some folks other than the LGBT community are taking matters in Uganda seriously. The Southern Nevada Health District in Las Vegas has cut ties to the Canyon Ridge Community Church. The state organization had been working with the church to find a location for their HIV testing and AIDS awareness activities. After learning that the church had an ongoing relationship with anti-gay pastor Martin Ssempa of Uganda, they severed ties.
Ssempa is one of the forces behind the draconian anti-homosexuality laws in Uganda and Canyon Ridge has supported him and the policy. More from Salon.com.
