Scary Stuff Via Human Rights Watch

A lot of sadly disturbing things there, I really had no idea how terrible Egypt (http://hrw.org/reports/2004/egypt0304/) and Jamaica (http://hrw.org/reports/2004/jamaica1104/3.htm) are about GLBTers...

It almost makes me want to go into Human Rights work but then I recall the power of guns and overpowering groups of bigots.

Not to steer the discussion...

But I would always put religion first on any list as to why this stuff happens. Although, yes, religious people *with* guns, even scarier.
