Brickbat: A Finger on the Problem

Kenyan Flag

A Kenyan court has upheld the use of anal exams to determine a person's sexual orientation. "I find no violation of human dignity, right to privacy and right to freedom of the petitioners," said Judge Mathew Emukule. Two men charged with engaging in gay sex say the anal examinations and testing for HIV and hepatitis B they were forced to undergo amounted to torture and degrading treatment.

Always with the ass-sex.

Needs pot and Mexicans

As long as digital exams in every jurisdiction . . .

[CharlesWT]

Analog exams are worse...

[thrakkorzog]

I thought open books, open notes exam were the worst.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Well, at least they're not looking for drugs.

[Fist of Etiquette]

This confirms what they told my pledge group. It's only gay if you're on bottom.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Seems like the Brickbat could be the law against same-sex coupling itself.

[Adans smith]

Yep,and that would cover most [all] of Africa and the Middle East.

[thrakkorzog]

Wait until the courts get introduced to the concept of pegging.

[thrakkorzog]

After all, there's a totally straight reason for people to shove things up their ass.

happens enough, you'd think we'd be used to it by now...

[John C. Randolph]

Do Africans enjoy the same immunity from criticism by the progtards that the theocrats of the Middle East do?

I'd say yes,slavery,colonialism ect...

[Mickey Rat]

No. Gays are above them on the SJW totem pole of protected groups, and Muslims are above gays.

"I find no violation of human dignity, right to privacy and right to freedom of the petitioners,"

Kenya. Trampling of civil liberties. Anal exams.

There's gotta be a joke in there about Obama I'm missing.

[kbolino]

It's amazing how brazen the statement is. Just say "petition denied" and move the fuck on. But no, they've got to tell bald-faced lies. If the judge finds no violation of human dignity, did he bow down and have the bailiff* give him an anal exam to prove the point?

* = Do they have bailiffs in Kenya?

[UnCivilServant]

It's a common law system, to set precedent, you need the explaination. A mere denial doesn't create as strong a precedent as stating "there was nothing wrong with what the government did".

[kbolino]

If that qualifies as an explanation, they must have different dictionaries in Kenya, because I don't see how it "explains" anything. You're probably right, but that doesn't change the absurdity of it. Whether he says such utter bullshit because he hates homosexuals or because he loves the government is irrelevant.

[Rufus The Monocled]

Bring in the CIVIL/ROMAN/NAPOLEONIC CODE!!

[kbolino]

Hmm, it is somewhat notable that this happened in Mombasa, one of the few places in Kenya that's majority Muslim. Don't know about the judge, but Islam isn't big on "human dignity".

[John C. Randolph]

Well, clearly Obama's father fled his homeland in fear of being subjected to goverment buggery.

[Agent Cooper]

Thanks, Obama.

[AlmightyJB]

What's tge complaint? Were the exams done by women?

[kbolino]

No, it was done by God-fearing heterosexual men. You know, the sort of people who'd want to stick their hands up other guys' asses.

[AlmightyJB]

Same guys that want to collect our pee for drug testing. Weirdos.

"I find no violation of human dignity"

"Why, the examiners even proffered the petitioners a box of Kleenex."

[Rich]

"I find no violation of human dignity."

"Why, the examiner even offered the petitioners a box of tissues."

[UnCivilServant]

Evidently the tree rats approved of the comment.

I don't see why.

[Rich]

The squirrels certainly violated *my* human dignity!

[R C Dean]

I gotta say, I do like the Kenyan flag.

That is all.
