From NPR...
The Anti-Homosexuality Bill of 2009 would jail consenting adults who engage in gay sex. It would give life sentences to people in same-sex marriages. It would extradite gay Ugandans living abroad and prosecute them.
It is the first bill Bahati has ever written, and he calls it a "very wonderful piece of legislation." He says he can't imagine a Uganda in which gay people live freely, because the possibility is too horrible to consider. His bill would also jail anyone who fails to report gay activity to police within 24 hours.
And what if his brother were engaging in homosexual activity? "I'd arrest him myself and take him to the police ... because it's bad for society," Bahati says.
