What are you thoughts on this UN decision?

Asked by Simone_De_Beauvoir (39052points) November 22nd, 2010

Recently, the UN voted to remove ‘sexual orientation’ from a resolution that protects people from arbitrary execution without cause. This means being queer is enough to get you killed (which is the case as it is, in many places) but now the UN stands behind that kind of idiocy. I am completely disgusted with this move given how horrid the climate is for LGBT people in some countries. Read the rest here and please, provide me with some perspective because I just don’t understand why this step was a necessity.
