        Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni tells the Commonwealth Heads of   
   Government Meeting   
   in Australia that there are no homosexuals in Uganda. "First, it [HIV] goes   
   through   
   unprotected sex. We don't have homosexuals in Uganda so this is mainly   
   heterosexual   
   transmission," Museveni said.   
      
        Museveni previously has acknowledged Uganda's gays and denounced them. In   
   1999,   
   speaking to parliament about how homosexuals are treated in the nation's   
   Ankole region, he   
   said: "These few individuals were either ignored or speared and killed by   
   their parents."

   What's all the fuss about same-sex marriages? I've been the same sex all my   
   life, and I   
   was married for years. No problem. What's the big deal?
