This video was filmed in Africa. Someone suggested it happened in Ghana, others said in Uganda, then yet others said it was in South Africa so I really don’t know what to go with here. Either way, it was somewhere there within Africa – the cradle of civilization. Another unclear fact is what the victim was accused of. Most sources claim his only crime was that he was gay. Only one source maintained that he was a thief which was guessed through victim’s sign language (suggesting that he only wanted to eat). General consensus however is that he was gay so we’re gonna stick with that notion.

In the video, young African male is seen lynched by a mob of fellow Africans. He’s beaten, kicked, hit with objects and eventually burned alive. The lynch mob attempts to burn him by necklacing, which is a summary execution carried out by forcing a rubber tire around victim’s chest, but mob’s attempts to force the tire over victim’s head failed.

All this calls for one question – isn’t it precious how many African countries jump on a poverty bandwagon each time they smell free money from western donors, but when it comes to lynching someone, they never hesitate to put liters of gasoline to waste. Yet the biggest joke is that many people they burn alive are accused of crimes completely out of proportion to the punishment?

When the video starts, the victims is already covered in blood. Having clearly gone through excessive beating and lynching, the young man sits on the road as the mob tries to put a tire on him for necklacing. Since that doesn’t work, the mob just stick with pouring gasoline on him. The first time they set him alight, he doesn’t instantly turn into a fireball because he wasn’t doused enough.

As he attempts to run, the mob catches up with him and the kicking resumes. At one point he’s kicked into a car that casually drives by. Heavily outnumbered and continuously beaten, he’s eventually delivered a few blows with large objects which incapacitate him enough to prevent further attempts to flee. As wooden table is broken on his back and more gasoline is added, his fate is sealed. One more spark and into a fireball he turns, all the while traffic around him continues unhindered. This time around, there was no escaping the flames. VIDEO: http://howscience.weebly.com/4/post/2014/01/man-in-ghana-burned-alive-for-being-gay.html

You have got absolutely no proof at all that this man was homosegxwal. The headline is misleading. Please take the story down. It is creating fake news.
