David Kato

It’s like this blog has become Li’l Joé’s Musical Exposium or something. (Also, my third horse-riding lesson today. Wheee!)

• Tragically predictable: David Kato [pictured], Ugandan gay rights activist who sued local tabloid for identifying homosexuals (including him), murdered at his home.

• I fully support the Park51 Islamic cultural center, but this gay-bashing imam needs to either get a clue or be released. (Park51 asserts over Twitter that he’s only one advisor and that those remarks are his personal, unaffiliated opinions. In that case, do they really need someone whose beliefs embarrass them so?)

• Christian maturity and sensibility on display at OneNewsNow.

• English airport declares a three-inch plastic gun on a figurine a “safety threat”, forces tourist to mail it overseas separately. Imagine what the TSA would’ve done.
