Is UNIBAM being used for foreign gay agenda?

Westmin James

Although the trial will be run along clear-cut legal lines, this is far from a clear-cut, unemotional issue and feelings on both sides are running deep. Today, the media asked the hard questions, including a query about an existing perception that there is a foreign agenda at work, and Caleb Orozco is just a pawn of foreign gay rights activists who have a vested interest in this landmark case. Orozco took obvious offense to the question, while U-RAP Litigation Specialist Westmin James stayed the course.

“This is about Mister Orozco who is a Belizean and it is about enforcing the Belizean constitution. It is Mister Orozco who is the party in this case as well as the Attorney General. In fact, it is—and UNIBAM, which was a party originally to the action which is a local organization. It is the churches who has applied to strike out a local body from the case, from being a party to this case. It was in fact the churches who did not want this local body to be part of the case and at first they were successful to remove UNIBAM as a party, but then subsequently, the court allowed UNIBAM to become an interested party, which is the same level as the churches and some of these other organizations. So first of all, this is and it is only, Mister Orozco who is the party to this and the claimant is Belizean. It is about Belizean people and the persons that it affects and the rights of Belizeans.”

“I’m always eager to answer that question. The same person that accuses us of a foreign agenda just needs to look into a mirror and see what color he is or where he is from—I believe he is from Texas. And so let’s put it one step forward. If you look at all the evangelical groups at the University of Belize, there are a lot of Americans who lead evangelical groups. So if they want to accuse us of a foreign agenda, they just need to look at themselves. It is a pot calling the kettle black. The other thing is foreign agenda; there are thousands and thousands of households in this country that have gay Belizeans. The issue for those families with gay relatives is not a foreign one; it is a family centered one. And there is a reason why I brought this case before the court; because they themselves know and have experienced prejudice in the streets and around the neighborhoods to know how difficult it is. I know how difficult it is. And so for that criticism to hold water, for me those persons who criticize have no integrity.”

    BEING GAY IS A LIFESTYLE WHICH ONE CHOSE NOT A HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUE!!!

  2. trudy says:

    i like the approach of paraguayan president-elect horacio cartes who said, before election, that he would shoot himself in the nutella if he learned that his son was a pillow biter. his victory at the polls is a testament to the wholesomeness of the paraguayan people. to answer the question put by Ch5, though, belize is indeed a proving ground for the lgbt movement and unibam is their little beyotch, doing their sordid bidding. power-hungry and opportunistic politicians like obama and clinton, who just need that last vote, are to blame for the what appears to be an unstoppable homosexualizing movement the globe over.

  3. Belizean Pride says:

    i agree with you trudy

  4. Louisville,Ky says:

    If these people are allowed to change the laws as enshrined in our constitution, then may God have mercy on Belize. Because, what next will it be? Same sex marriage and or lowering the age of consent? The right to infect you with HIV without any legal recourse? Who knows where will it end.
    I think the homosexuals need to leave ‘well enough’ alone and quit while they are ahead. Their life-style will never be embraced or accepted socially or constitutionally. Stay in your CLOSET. We really don’t care what your sexual preference is, just don’t try to force us to accept you. It is an abomination!

  5. Steel says:

    Legalize what??? Two men cant have sex, don’t they know that. Pure foolishness di goh on here. And like Louisville said, soon they will want to legalize same sex marriage and then even want to adopt our children! This nastiness needs to be stop. Caleb need 2 sit his baggy a** down b4 he is attacked once again. Belize is suppose 2 be a God-fearing country. Sure we need help when it comes to murder and crime, but how do we expect God to help us bring back peace to this and if we’re slapping him in the face with this ……… blasphemy??? Think abt it.

    It’s a shame that some Belizeans are still living in the 18th Century. No one chooses to be Gay. I’ve known Gay Adults all my life, and for some you could tell from childhood they were “Different”. The above comments seems to have been made by people who are ignorant and prejudiced. We are in the 21st. Century and the majority, especially the young people of this Century are embracing and accepting the fact that Lesbians and Gays are people too, and deserve the same rights as others. Statements such as “It is an abomination” sounds like the statements that were made when society were burning Witches at the Stake. You should all check your Family members, and I bet you’ll find some that are Gay. You are all Hypocrites.

  7. dat just gud fu dem says:

    we asking for some serious hurricanes and other bad weather if we allow these sadomites to change the law….hey if you want to be GAY keep it to urselves the public at large need not to know……

  8. david says:

    Please all stop calling this people gay. since gay is the meaning for happy. This people are homosexauls, which is a choice.

  9. BigotsRstupid says:

    Trudy, the Paraguayan president had to apologize for his remarks because they hurt his image with the people of Paraguay. Get your facts right.

  10. cg says:

    Once a foreign body feel the need to partake in our “local” and “social” issues, especially the US…yes its an agenda…

  11. twosweetinez says:

    @Kenneth Card Sr.I’ve known thieves all my life so does that make being a thief right ?

  12. nosodomy says:

    how can sodomy ever be a human right? sodomy is a sin.. it is definitely not a Belizean right.

  13. Gerald Underwood says:

    You need to look in the !@#$%^&. Mirror. And ask yourself. If God made you to be a faggot straight up go something with that nasty unclean. Sinful behavior you all need psychological help you crazy !@#$%^&*( if not put you all in a ship and sink it in the middle of the ocean

  14. Hi5 says:

    @ Kenneth Card Sr . Sit down. @Louisville, Ky 1 million% agreed

  15. Louisville,Ky says:

    @ Kenneth Card Sr. you are missing the entire point. Let me put it another way. For a man to be having anal intercourse with another man, that’s down right nasty. And yeah, I may have very close relatives that engages in such behavior and I KNOW that I also have very close relatives that are thieves. But, do I condone his Thieving butt? No matter how you clip it, nip it, or dissect it. Right is right and wrong is wrong. A man must not lay down with another man.
    I don’t know how else to tell you.

  16. John Boy,Carson,Ca says:

    Kenneth you are dealing with uneducated people.

  17. issac says:

    Keneth sounds gay, no matter what sodomy is wrong Leviticus 20:13. Just NASTY!!!!!

  18. Eye in the Sky says:

    They are nasty disgusting animals. Send them to an island and lets see how many children they can have. Once the last one dies off the problem will be gone.

  19. Gerald Underwood says:

    You don’t need …… in Belize let them go somewhere else with that nasty and sinful behavior orozco you should get some …… and change your unclean activities and look to God for guidance

  20. UNIBAM DESTROYER says:

  22. Storm says:

    Unibam and Orozco are just lying when they deny being pawns in an international, foreign agenda –look at their representatives and spokespersons, only tokens come from Belize. Without the foreign intervention, this case would not be in court now.

    The UN / US / EU social agenda is for using free abortion as birth control, same-sex marriage, and educating children of all ages about tolerating all kinds of sexual perversion, there’s no “right or wrong,” and all society has a right to say how you raise your children.

    THIS COURT CASE IS A BATTLE IN THE WAR BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT. Let’s fight for Belize and our children to live on a Godly country.

  23. PROUD BELIZEAN says:

    Really No one chooses to be gay? that’s a personal preference and lifestyle which sick perverted people CHOOSE to live and practice. Please it has been scientifically proven! Now they want others to accept their perverted lifestyle. I agree that consenting adult can engage in sexual activity with whomever they choose to in the privacy of their own bedrooms but don’t announce it to the world. Stay in ur damn closets and leave the rest of Belize out of it! What happens in the privacy of ur bedroom is nobody’s business! ……In conclusion, to all the LGBT or watever it is that u call urself A difference of opinion does not mean I hate you it simply means I disagree with u and i am disgusted by ur lifestyle!
