Egyptian Court Sentences 4 Gay Men to 3 Years Each in Prison

10

A court in Egypt just sentenced four gay men to three years each in prison for committing acts “inconsistent with public morality” and for the crime of being homosexual.

Sharia law strikes, once again.

Egypt has been cracking down on gays, arresting men for the crime of homosexuality — and now, four men were just sentenced to three years each in prison.

But this is the religion the all-tolerant, all-diverse left loves to embrace — though logically speaking, it makes no sense. How can one profess to welcome homosexuals into the fold — yet simultaneously embrace a religion that condemns homosexuals to prison or death?

Egypt Independent has the story (h/t The Religion of Peace):

Haram Misdemeanor Court sentenced four members of the gay community to three years in prison on Saturday, each on charges of committing acts “inconsistent with public morality and homosexuality,” that fall under Egypt’s ‘debauchery law’, inside a residential apartment in Hadayeq al-Ahram.

Police arrested the defendants after receiving an arrest warrant from the public prosecution. The authorities confiscated aphrodisiacs and sex toys.

Homosexuality is not illegal in Egypt. But in the late 1990s, the police stepped brought back the use of two old laws – a 1950 anti-prostitution law and a 1961 law against “debauchery” – to arrest and charge the practicing LGBT community. The highest-profile action was a raid in Cairo in 2001 on the Queen Boat, a gay-friendly club on the Nile, where 52 men were arrested.

The latest crackdown against the LGBT community in Egypt was last month after a concert for the Lebanese band Mashrou’ Leila, during which members of the gay community held up rainbow flags.

Rights groups say that police arrested 57 people after the Mashrou Leila concert, and sentenced ten of them to six years in prison after being convicted of “debauchery”.

Had Ethan Hawke having problems as a drone pilot on TV last night. It lasted 10mins before the bleeding heart nonsense made me sick and I switched off. It may have even been a good movie but the leftist bias nauseated me as it always does and quite a few examples of leftard Hollywood trash have not lasted more than 10 minutes

And the US subsidizes this state to the tune of ? 2 billion$/annum (IIRC) and they kill Coptic Christians almost every week and burn down a church nearly every month. Typical muslim behaviour rewarded by subsidies as are Gaza (see hamas) and Pakistan(see Taliban). Stop feeding the parasites!

Well, we let gays practice their anal sport and look what happens. They basically want and demand everybody bow to them.

From the bathroom to your libraries to even your uhhh, Master-Bakers. Hmmmm……

Once the muslums take over they’ll be crying for the days they thought Christians were the problem.

That’s a fair sentence for a Muslim. Imagine if it a gay Jew; heads would roll.
