    "content": "As the Leader of the Majority Party said, this is like saying that there is the right of association of bank robbers or murderers. In the United States of America, there are a number of states that prescribe death penalty. The death penalty is for crimes like murder and the biggest number of people who are on the death row are blacks. In States like Texas and a number of others in the USA where there are Republican governors, they execute them. We cannot go there and tell them to not take away lives. They will tell you that these are our laws. Hon. Temporary Speaker, they try to legislate from the Bench by trying to look politically correct with the western world. They do not deserve to sit as a Bench. There is a need for us to bring a Motion in here to ask them where they got that piece of legislation. Here is the Act that criminalises homosexuality. We must take them to task on that. As for us, I think that we should pass capital punishment on such offences. They have capital punishment on murderers and on other people, most of whom are framed black people in the United States of America and we cannot interfere with their laws. They go on killing those people there because they say they committed murders. Here we are telling them this thing is worse than murder for us in our cultures as Africans. Black people and… Hon. Temporary Speaker can you add me one more minute as a ranking Member and a former Deputy Speaker? Two minutes, please."
