While in Senegal President Obama lauded the United States Supreme Courts ruling on Gay Rights. He spoke of the courts decision and asked the audience to consider it for the African Nation. Senegal's President Sall said his country is not ready to decriminalize homosexuality. Sall stated that his country is tolerant of gays but that it is not going to change it's views overnight. Sall goes on to state that his country has outlawed capital punishment if you are caught in a homosexual act while other African countries still punish by death.
Way to go President Sall for standing up for your country. We Americans don't have all the answers but you might want to consider some of the things we do.
