Mayor Menino appears to be modeling his condemnation of anyone who will not support same-sex sex acts after the behavior of King Mwanga, the King of Buganda ( now Uganda) who was determined to silence any  person who objected to his insistence that homosexual acts be honored. How King Mwanga went about silencing his subjects, including his close relations and members of his court, can be found on   bunganda.com   the Buganda Home Page which reports on "The Christian Martyrs of Uganda" which details how King Mwanga silenced Charles Lwanga and the 22 young men in his court who would not give homage to the king's insistence that they agree to his insistence that they support homosexual acts. If Mayor Menino had the same powers of authority, he would successfully implement his desire to silence any objection to his belief.
