The complaint is that he crossed over the lines of free speech.

Anti-Gay rhetoric in Uganda probably leads to some violence.

The document doesn't really address how far this guy went. The freedom of speech does not protect your right in insight violence against other people.

True. I can't wait until any anti-homosexual preaching is considered violence inciting hate-speech....

Nobody warned of this...ever.

What law that is recognized by the US allows for a foreign organization to sue a pastor for anything like this who is located in the US?

You mean the COURT document issued by the JUDGE does not go into why he allowed this?

Hmm..... same 2 issues:

1- It did not take place in the US
2- Show me where he did insight violence. Show me his words.

Any type of book could theoretically spark a riot. Should U.S. authors be limited to only write books on subjects that are in no way controversial? And who decides what is offensive?
