Egypt court back deportation of 'gay' Libyan man

On April 15, 2015 the Egyptian court backed the decision to deport a man who was imprisoned in 2008 for allegedly being homosexual.  It blows my mind that a government would agree to deport a man solely because of his sexual preference.  I guess I thought the whole world was becoming more accepting of sexual identity, but this case makes me rethink that.  I am proud to be from one of the first states to legalize gay marriage and I hope that soon it is legal in all parts of the world.
