Homosexuals should be shot...

So declares the mother of Ollanta Humara, Elena Tasso. Humara is running for president in Perú on a nationalist agenda. The article in Spanish appears in El Mercurio Online, where she goes on to say that homosexuality is a "grave moral problem."

"Yo les apuesto a ustedes que con dos violadores fusilados ya no habría más violaciones. Y con dos homosexuales que se fusilen ya no habría en la calle tanta inmoralidad", dijo Tasso en entrevista que publica hoy el diario sensacionalista limeño "Extra".

Translation: "And I bet you that with two violators shot, there would be no more violations. And with two homosexuals that are killed there would be less inmorality in the street."
