Amnesty International also calls on the international community to urgently put pressure on the Ugandan government to protect the rights of LGBTI individuals in the country. The Ugandan writer and feminist Rosebell Kagumire warned in a tweet that the law could deny queer Ugandan’s housing, education and “other fundamental rights” and could be used “by your enemies, and government included … against anyone”.įlavia Mwangovya, Amnesty International’s deputy regional director said: “The Ugandan president must immediately veto this law and take steps to protect the human rights of all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. “It doesn’t belong in Uganda’s history books.”

“The anti-gay bill is dangerous, regressive and full of hate, and will be thrown out on its day in court,” she tweeted. Let’s stand firm.”Īn earlier anti-gay bill in 2014 also prompted widespread international criticism and was later nullified by Uganda’s constitutional court on procedural grounds.Ĭlare Byarugaba, an LGBTQ+ advocate in Kampala, suggested the latest bill could have the same fate. She asked MPs to “remain steadfast” in their commitments, adding that “no amount of intimidation will make us retract from what we have done. The bill will, however, pass into law without the president’s assent if he returns it to parliament for a second time.Īnita Among, the speaker of parliament, said: “Today, parliament has gone again into the history books of Uganda, Africa and the world, clearly brought up the issue of homosexuality, the moral question, the future of our children, and protecting families.”
#KILL BILL 2 SERIES#
The series is noted for utilizing a distinct and diverse blend of genres, taking heavy influence from kung-fu movies, blaxploitation, Spaghetti Westerns, samurai cinema, American crime films, and anime in both its visuals and story. Museveni has 30 days to either sign the legislation into law, return it to parliament for another revision, or veto it and inform the parliamentary speaker. Kill Bill is an American two-part martial arts film and the fourth film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. The presence of 170 MPs is required to vote on a bill. One MP from the ruling party, Fox Odoi-Oywelowo, voted against, saying it contravened the constitution. Today, 371 MPs voted for the amended bill. Last month, a group of leading scientists and academics from Africa and across the world urged Museveni to veto the bill, saying that “homosexuality is a normal and natural variation of human sexuality”.
The UN human rights head, Volker Türk, called the proposed law “shocking and discriminatory”. The Kill Bill movies emphasize that The Bride is a legendary assassin whose abilities are practically unparalleled. Kill Bill is Quentin Tarantinos revenge epic involving The Bride (Uma Thurman), an ex-assassin who seeks revenge on former boss/lover Bill (David Carradine) and his Deadly Viper Assassination Squad after they tried to kill her on her wedding day. The US, European Union and major corporations have condemned the bill, and the US government said it was assessing the implications of the looming law for activities in Uganda under its flagship HIV/Aids programme. Museveni, a vocal opponent of LGBTQ+ rights, applauded lawmakers for having “rejected the pressure from the imperialists”. No such provision has been included in the amended bill. Kill Bill: Volume 2 is a 2004 American neo-Western martial arts film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. Museveni returned the bill to parliament last month, asking lawmakers to remove the duty to report and to introduce a provision to facilitate the “rehabilitation” of gay people. Failure to do so is subject to five years in jail or a fine of 10 million Ugandan shillings (£2,150).Īnyone who “knowingly allow their premises to be used for acts of homosexuality” faces seven years in jail.
#KILL BILL 2 MOVIE#
To speak to him in the movie language he knows best, it's all just a little too much "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.A measure that obliged people to report homosexual activity was amended to only require reporting when a child is involved. But at his worst, it's all just a little closed loop of inside references. At his best, Tarantino runs the zillions of movies he loves through his brain, chops them up and recombines them to show us what they say about the way we want to see ourselves and the way we really do. And there are some great lines, but it all gets a little too cute and self-aware. There are some great set-pieces, including ingeniously constructed confined-space battles and an escape from being buried alive. We're better off putting into it what each one of us wants it to be. We were better off imagining the left-out details or projecting them onto spareness of the movie like a Rorschach inkblot. The dialogue sounds like imitation Tarantino and the exposition plays like it should have stayed on the cutting room floor. Tarantino is far better at pulp fiction than drama. The sequel reveals the tantalizing story behind The Bride and the assassin squad, but in some ways, it was better not to know.
