Lucky Queensland!
We in SA still have that ‘defence ‘ on the books and it looks like it will remain on them for a long time. SA has long-since ceded the crown of being Progressive to other States – who would have thought all those years ago that Queensland of all the States and Territories would have become more progressive than SA which was the first State to decriminalise just being a homosexual – let alone actually taking part in any physical activity?
Of course its all about Votes, staying in power and pandering to the still very strong Catholic/Anglican entrenched hatred of our community by the leaders of those and other religious businesses – in particular we must add the Pentecostal Religious Businesses such as Hillsong and associated money-making businesses. The pity is they attract so many young people who get brain-washed into becoming homophobes.
Our current SA premier, Jay Weatherill simply pays lip service to our community because he refuses to risk offending those whom he thinks might vote for him.

I’m glad they are finally working to get rid of this. There is really no justification for such a law. Imagine the outcry from men if women were allowed to kill men that made advances on them if they weren’t interested.
