I've already heard about this violent homophobia spawned by the American religious right in Uganda, from Rachel Maddow on MSNBC. Most guilty is a sinister fundamentalist group made up of Washington DC senators and congressmen called the Family (including the once and future S.C. governor Mark Sanford when he had served in the senate), which teaches the completely Anti-Christian theology that God favors the rich and powerful, and allows them to literally get away with murder.
David Bahati, the Ugandan MP and former alumni of the University of Manchester and the University of Cardiff here in the UK, is a member of The Family. He was the one that tabled the "Kill the Gays" Bill.
What the American Christian fundamentalist nutcases are doing in Uganda is despicable. A lot more people back in the U.S. should be aware of what these people are like.
