Why are people debating whether Amy Winehouse’s death or the Norway killings are better to mourn over?

Last time I checked, death of any person is worth grieving no matter who they are or what they have done. I think it’s stupid that people are comparing these two incidents and debating on which one should be given more importance. The Norway killing was very tragic and a lot of young people lost their lives. A lot of families were in great shock and grief. On the other hand, Amy Winehouse’s death also had that same effect on the people who valued and loved her. It’s not right to choose which one is better. For God’s sake, it’s death we’re talking about here, not an event like Grammy’s or something. Let us just respect all of the lives that were lost these past few days. Let’s just hope for the betterment of their families and pray for peace for their souls.

"I am constantly torn between killing myself and killing everyone around me. Those seem to be the two choices. Everything else is just killing time."
John Green & David Levithan (Will Grayson, Will Grayson)

This is not something I normally do, but this is too important to ignore. Take five seconds, and sign this petition.
In 48 hours, the Ugandan Parliament may vote on a brutal new law that carries the death penalty for homosexuality. Thousands of Ugandans could face execution — just for being gay.

This is just so absurd. I mean, killing people for being homosexual? What are they trying to prove exactly? I may not be a homosexual but I don’t get why people act like this. Do they thing that being straight makes them superior? Where on earth did they get that shit from. Seriously, things like this bothers me the most. Where is our freedom? Don’t we get to be what we want to be?
