I read the passage below from the UK Guardian newspaper about the on-going discussions related to anti-homosexual laws in Liberia and I could not resist responding to it.



"The second bill – drafted by the ex-wife of the former president Charles Taylor – would make gay marriage a crime punishable by up to 10 years in jail. Jewel Howard Taylor told the Guardian: "[Homosexuality] is a criminal offence. It is un-African." She went on to say: "It is a problem in our society. We consider deviant sexual behaviour criminal behaviors. "We are just trying to strengthen our local laws. This is not an attempt to bash homosexuals.""

Jewel Howard Taylor was married to the savage and barbarian, Charles Ghankay Taylor. Taylor started and carried on a brutal civil war that took the lives of more than 270,000 Liberians and destroyed the country. He also fueled and supported another civil war in neighboring Sierra Leone that caused the lives of more than 90,000 people in that country. He became a thieving and murderous ruler/dictator when he stole the 1997 election and forced his way into the Executive Mansion as a result. Jewel Howard Taylor, the former wife of a savage and barbarian, has no moral authority to to talk about "deviant sexual behavior" or "deviant behavior" of any kind and type. She is a reprobate human being and a hypocrite of the highest order!

When did she know about "deviant behavior"? Was it after her husband's Anti-Terrorist Unit (aka Actual Terrorist Unit) maimed and murdered hundreds of innocent Liberians? Could it have been after Taylor drugged tens of thousands of unsuspecting kids in Liberia, gave them Kalashnikovs and ordered them to rape their own mothers, sisters and aunts and then set them on fire while they were alive?

Or was it after Jewel Howard-Taylor stole nearly $2.3 million the government of Taiwan gave the Taylor regime to renovate the John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial Medical Center in Monrovia?

Now in fairness to Jewel, I have to also refer to this statement made by the arrogant, corrupt, inept, nepotistic, ineffective and inefficient Liberian president, Ellen johnson-Sirleaf which she made during an interview with the UK Guardian newspaper:

"In a joint interview with Tony Blair, who was left looking visibly uncomfortable by her remarks, Sirleaf told the Guardian: " We've [we have] got certain traditional values in our society that we would like to preserve.""

God forbid if one of the "traditional values" Ellen was referring to is not her "tradition" of "donating" $10,000 to warlord Charles "The Barbarian" Taylor and imploring him to "burn down Monrovia". Are her "traditions" of naming her sons, friends and Unity Party officials to some of the most key and lucrative positions in her government and stealing millions of dollars from Liberian government coffers and remitting same into overseas bank accounts while slowly but surely apportioning the country among her foreign friends and supporters among the "traditional values" she wants to preserve? Or how about the "tradition" of ignoring Liberian law and doing nothing about audit reports and reports/recommendations that emanate from other investigations of impropriety in her administration? I wonder not knowing that prostitution, especially under-age prostitution, is a crime in Liberia is one of the "traditional values" President Sirleaf wants to preserve.

Another economic, social and political time bomb is being slowly put together in Liberia. It gathers more and more deadly blast power every day. It will explode one day when it reaches critical mass. The one built during 110 years of public corruption, economic inequality and political and social injustice under successive True Whig Party regimes began exploding on April 14, 1979 and again on April 12, 1980. It morphed into a 14-year devastating civil war, begun on December 24, 1989, that totally destroyed Liberia.
