Judge dismisses bogus lawsuit against Scott Lively!
The case of Sexual Minorities Uganda (SMUG) versus
Scott Lively has been dismissed after five long years. Foreign LGBT
activists sued Lively for sharing his biblical views on homosexuality
during three visits to Uganda in 2002 and 2009. The summary judgment
order puts an end to SMUG’s attempt to silence Lively and others who
speak internationally about the “gay” agenda.
When asked what brought on this lawsuit for “crimes
against humanity,” Lively responded, “What I did was tell the documented
truth about the history and tactics of the ‘gay’ political movement, and
urge a compassionate Biblical response, emphasizing rehabilitation and
prevention for LGBT sufferers. That is all I have ever done in almost 30
years as a missionary to the global pro-family movement. No hatred. No
advocacy of violence. No invasions of personal privacy. Just an
insistence that homosexuality be denied normalization in the mainstream
of society in favor of the natural family.”
Judge Michael Ponsor could have dismissed the case
four years ago but through ideological bias he allowed SMUG’s case to
continue. The SMUG case was utterly fraudulent in law and in fact, and
in a direct challenge to the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law, SMUG
tried to create new and dangerous precedent using international “crimes
against humanity” – akin to genocide and war crimes – by relying on the
obscure Alien Tort Statute (ATS). The U.S. Supreme Court issued the
deathblow to SMUG’s lawsuit in 2013 by ruling that the ATS was never
intended to allow a foreign citizen to sue a U.S. citizen in America,
alleging violation of some supposed international law.
Judge Ponsor’s order dismissed the case in
2017 for the same reasons he should have dismissed it in 2013 but he let his personal bias against pro-family
values and support of the LGBT agenda slip into what should otherwise
have been a straight legal opinion. In the end it was a victory for an
American pastor falsely accused of “crimes against humanity.”
