"...may be the most important march we've had in South Africa since 1913 when Gandhi organized to protest the restrictions that had been imposed on the Indian population of South Africa" - Ramon Thomas, Social Networking Expert.

On Friday 30 October 2009, the Addiction Action Campaign will be holding its first protest action in SANDTON.

"Is it right to profit from addiction?"

"Aggravated" homosexuality will be punished by death, according to a new bill tabled in Parliament yesterday. The private member's bill was tabled by Ndorwa West MP David Bahati (NRM).

A person commits aggravated homosexuality when the victim is a person with disability or below the age of 18, or when the offender is HIV-positive. The bill thus equates aggravated homosexuality to aggravated defilement among people of different sexes, which also carries the death sentence.
