Stoning Death Of Gay Somali May Never Have Happened
"LGBTQ Nation is reporting that they cannot confirm the story of a allegedly gay Somali teen who was reportedly stoned to death last week as punishment for being gay. This is an unfortunate reality with regards to Somalia. The nation basically has no functioning government and little in the way of reliable news."
That being said, worldwide human rights groups are quite aware that vigilante justice commonly occurs throughout certain regions of some African countries. As this article further states:
"This is not the first time that a story about a supposedly gay man being executed horrifically in Africa has proven to be only partially true. A graphic video of a man being lit on fire while wearing a tire that circulated in 2011 proved to be true up to a point. A man was executed, but he had been accused by the local mob of being a thief, not of being gay."
And last year, this horrific video surfaced.
Christians Burning people alive in Kenya suspected of witchcraft. (Warning: very graphic.)
This apparently is a gay kiss scene that appeared in the daytime TV soap Days of Our Lives recently. (Or should that be gaytime TV?) Looks like the original versions have been removed, but several people have posted it with music over the audio. This one at least has subtitles.
I followed the links and Towelroad said this:
UPDATE: At least one of the photos appear to be fake and from this incident in 2009.

18-Year Old Stoned To Death In Somalia For Being Gay
An allegedly gay man Mohamed Ali Baashi was buried in the ground up to his chest and stoned to death on 15 March in Barawe some fifty miles form the Somali capital of Mogadishu. According to reports, Al-Qaeda linked Al Shabaab ordered the attack after charging and finding Baashi guilty of sodomy. Members of Al Shabaab stood behind the judges who passed sentence while wearing face masks and showing off their rifles.
Comment by Sentient Biped on March 7, 2013 at 10:04pm Should this woman should be given the same treatment she gave her son?
I guess not. But sometimes I wonder.
Comment by The Flying Atheist on March 6, 2013 at 9:07pm Dallas, now that is one great feel-good commercial. That really makes me smile. So cute.
Ads out of closet, into mainstream with gay themes
LGBT themes, faces in mainstream advertising multiply as more companies come out of the closet
NEW YORK (AP) -- A new TV commercial features a good-looking young woman on a beach vacation lounging next to a good-looking young man. He bemoans the glare on his iPad and she fills him in on the Kindle Paperwhite's sun-friendly screen.
He clicks to buy one himself and suggests they celebrate with a drink.
"My husband's bringing me a drink right now," chirps she.
"So is mine," smiles he as they turn and wave at their male loved ones sitting together at a tiki bar.
Welcome to the latest in gay imagery in mainstream advertising, where LGBT people have been waiting for a larger helping of fairness, or at least something other than punchlines and cliches. read more
