There are the 10 countries where homosexuality may be punished by death

In the wake of America's deadliest mass shooting ever — at a gay nightclub in Orlando on Sunday — we have updated our map of LGBT rights around the world.

Hover over the countries below to see which category each falls into.

Below the map, we take a closer look at the 10 countries in which homosexuality can be punishable by death. In some, the sentencing derives from an interpretation of sharia law. There are some in which provisions for the death penalty exist but have never been carried out. In others that we haven't included, non-state actors who control swaths of land either summarily execute or sentence homosexuals to death.

Here are the 10 countries where homosexuality may be punishable by death:

Yemen: According to the 1994 penal code, married men can be sentenced to death by stoning for homosexual intercourse. Unmarried men face whipping or one year in prison. Women face up to seven years in prison.

Iran: In accordance with sharia law, homosexual intercourse between men can be punished by death, and men can be flogged for lesser acts such as kissing. Women may be flogged.

The Islamic State's war on homosexuals is another shocking examples of the group's brutality. (TWP)

Mauritania: Muslim men engaging in homosexual sex can be stoned to death, according to a 1984 law, though none have been executed so far. Women face prison.

Nigeria: Federal law classifies homosexual behavior as a felony punishable by imprisonment, but several states have adopted sharia law and imposed a death penalty for men. A law signed in early January makes it illegal for gay people countrywide to hold a meeting or form clubs.

Qatar: Sharia law in Qatar applies only to Muslims, who can be put to death for extramarital sex, regardless of sexual orientation.

Saudi Arabia: Under the country’s interpretation of sharia law, a married man engaging in sodomy or any non-Muslim who commits sodomy with a Muslim can be stoned to death. All sex outside of marriage is illegal.

Afghanistan: The Afghan Penal Code does not refer to homosexual acts, but Article 130 of the Constitution allows recourse to be made to sharia law, which prohibits same-sex sexual activity in general. Afghanistan’s sharia law criminalizes same-sex sexual acts with a maximum of the death penalty. No known cases of death sentences have been meted out since the end of Taliban rule in 2001.

Somalia: The penal code stipulates prison, but in some southern regions, Islamic courts have imposed sharia law and the death penalty.

Sudan: Three-time offenders under the sodomy law can be put to death; first and second convictions result in flogging and imprisonment. Southern parts of the country have adopted more lenient laws.

United Arab Emirates: Lawyers in the country and other experts disagree on whether federal law prescribes the death penalty for consensual homosexual sex or only for rape. In a recent Amnesty International report, the organization said it was not aware of any death sentences for homosexual acts. All sexual acts outside of marriage are banned.

The left still doesn't know how to choose a spokesperson.

We, sir, we are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights, sir. But we truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf all of us. All of us. ...Brandon Dixon

The trouble being, four years ago, he showed us what one of his "American values" was via his Twitter account:

St. Patty's Day weekend is like Christmas for black dudes who like white chicks. Happy Holidays, boys!

Indeed, screwing drunk women is easy (and considered to be rape in most states).

I hope Vice President-Elect Pence won't be upholding this particular scumbag's "American values"

a small handful of the most populated states would contain close to enough votes to determine the results for the whole country.

One more comrade who does not believe in one person one vote

our president could end up being chosen by virtue of the amount of leftie/liberal/socialist/communists/progressives/collectivists/felons/whatever, that live in California, new York, Illinois and one or two other heavily populated states. heck there are probably more lefties in California than there are conservatives in 20 of the least populated states.

Just about 40 percent of the "leftie,liberal,communist,progressive,collectivist,felons" in illinois and california voted for trumph dumbass.
Jesus ytou are phoquing stupid.

I believe in the rule of law/method prescribed by the constitution troll. what you said has absolutely no bearing either on that, or on what I said.

comrade: "a fellow socialist or communist"---yeah, if this is the bizarro world from Seinfeld, sure im that.

I have no idea what youre on about in your last "point." apart from that your numbers are off by quite a bit (32% and 38%), try this:

in 2012 Obama beat Romney by ~5 million popular votes. the margin of victory for Obama in California, NY, and IL respectively was 3 million, 2 million, and .9 million, which is 5.9 million more votes just within those three states.

in theory then, Romney would have won the popular vote in every other state in the country, not made up the .9 million vote deficit, and still lost the popular vote by virtue of those three states being amongst the most populous and left leaning. add in another couple highly populated left leaning states and you could end up, if we went with a "popular election" with just a handful of states tipping the election one way. get it now?

interesting bit of information to know:

quote:

As of April 1, 2010, the date of the 2010 United States Census, the nine most populous U.S. states contain slightly more than half of the total population. The 25 least populous states contain less than one-sixth of the total population. California, the most populous state, contains more people than the 21 least populous states combined.

So where has this casting call been cited in this thread, then? We only have your little friend's word that it was as he claims. In the absence of that all you have is hearsay. If it's common knowledge, somebody should be able to find it.

You're making shit up. You know the citation was posted.

What was really ironic/hypocritical (I think) was that the actor that delivered the message used the words: "diverse Americans" when he was employed in a play that used the words: "white actors need not apply" in their casting call.

Are you making shit up again, as usual?

Given that there's a white actor standing behind him and a mostly white chorus line to his right in the photo of him reading his prepared statement, probably.

And you know it was posted, because you replied to it here.

(Or, perhaps, an attempt to hide the fact that you've just paid off a bunch of people you overcharged for a fraudulent qualification that isn't worth the paper it's written on, presumably because you were terrified that you'd have had to pay them a lot more than $30 million if it had actually gone to trial in front of a jury.)
Pathetic, innit?

Overcharged for a fraudulent qualification that isn't worth the paper it's written on.
Again, I don't know how is it in the UK, or the in the US. But many of your universities HAVE centres here, where their overcharged University degrees are also worthless. Despite being 60k per annum tuition fee and bearing the University names on their paper, and apparently flying professors over to teach.
Trump should set up his University in Asia. And join the rest of the Universities doing it over here.

You are obviously not old enouigh to have ever seen the play "hair"

Your endless hypocrisy is the quintessential reason why the Democrats got the shit kicked out of them in this election

Is that why bill's wife is ahead in the popular vote by nearly 2 million and counting?
Jesus you are phoquing stupid.

I saw Hair. I recall that not one white actor said anything to Obama.

Since obama was not the president why would they? What they did do was address the administration that was running the viet nam fiasco and they were somewhat less polite about it.

Amerika pimps the "one person one vote" mantra which is contrary to the constitution. What is your point?

Perhaps if you got a grown up to show you how to use a dictionary you would not appear so stupid.

gee where im from there's no law against contemporary theaters doing plays from the past. do you suppose that's the case where the troll lives?

otherwise, heck, I would have never seen a shakesepeare play either! although, maybe im really 450 yrs old, in which case I am old enough to have seen a midsummer's night dream or romeo and Juliet.

Just fyi... if the Muslims take over a women's vote would count only half and the homosexuals and transgenders... well, they probably won't have one.

Well you can't vote when you're dead, so no they won't.

Dead or in camps. Either way, they won't be voting.

Shhh! You can't call out one of the Left's people for being rapey! Black people/hispanics/Muslims/LGBTQWXYZ/women can do no wrong!
