"We Will Arrest Women"

 

Stephen Fry once said: "The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic Church."

Uganda's new anti-pornography bill is a fantastic example of this principle extended to a Christian government warped by an obsession with sex over basic common sense.


Uganda's Anti-Pornography Bill does put forward a definition of pornography... this definition does not seem to iron out ambiguities but rather embraces vagueness. Furthermore, the Bill's understanding of pornography is so broad as to extend it from something seen on our screens to something seen on our streets...

Uganda's Ethics and Integrity Minister and the main figure behind the Bill, has clarified: "Any attire which exposes intimate parts of the human body, especially areas that are of erotic function, are outlawed. Anything above the knee is outlawed. If a woman wears a miniskirt, we will arrest her."

As we know,  Simon Lokodo is about as ethical as slave labour.
