Reasons not to go to the Gambia on your holidays.


Not content with merely persecuting homosexuals, President Jammeh is now threatening to behead them in the name of religion. This is the same dubiously non delusional man that claimed to have found a cure for AIDS last year. Wonders never cease

Cause it's easier to fly,
There's a place that never dies in the southern sun,
Cause your love is on the run,
Let me out,
Set me free

That should help kill off the tourist industry which is the biggest source of income to what is a very poor nation. What is it with these people?

Do you think he has misunderstood the term "to give head"? emoticon

Yeah, and the KKK just misunderstood the term "hanging out with my bros".

What's the matter? You aren't laughing. Come on - lynching black people HAS to be good for a few laughs eh?

Re: Reasons not to go to the Gambia on your holidays.


What do gay people have to do to have their suffering taken seriously? For ****'s sake, they are being threatened by the president of this country. That isn't just some little tosser calling them poofs; that's a threat this bastard can operationalise. That means real human beings could die. And yet it's all a big ****ing joke to Dave. At least he's an obvious homophobic ****; Dave's just more subtle and sneaky about it.

If he had any shame, he would be feeling it now.

I await the usual accusations of me being a drama queen - that's how homophobes usually dismiss gay people's anger. There certainly won't be an apology, will there?

Oh for ****s sake! Homophobia is a real problem and throwing the title around as freely as you do dramatically reduces the profile of real homophobia and makes it much less likely that people respond to genuine homophobia. If I think you are a drama queen or a knobhead, that is not a comment on all homosexual people, just a comment on you.

There is humour in every tragedy and nurses in particular often see humour in areas that other people might take offense at. If you look at the joke, the target is the guy cutting people's heads off, not the people having their heads cut off. The joke is that he is so stupid that he things giving head is beheading! Now the joke is not Perrier Award territory but it is a joke nonetheless. I am so sorry you think I shouldn't poke fun at a monster but that has absolutely **** all to do with homophobia, unless you think laughing at Hitler is antimsemitic. Did you write in to the authors of Dad's Army or 'Allo Allo going "Millions of people died so how can you find any humour in this you bastards!!!"?

Making fun of the KKK is equally rich territory but I thought that particular joke was rubbish emoticon

You know what Dave - it isn't up to YOU to decide what is and what isn't "really" homophobic. Got that?

I await your o so hilarious jokes, yocking it up about cervical cancer then.

I just KNEW you wouldn't have the simple ****ing decency to apologise for a badly-timed "joke". Your type never does. You're a ****ing nasty little bully-boy deep down, aren't you?

And what makes them funny is that they don't rely on mocking the victims, unlike your vile homophobic "joke", which does.
