If we want to be safer over here, we need to help lgbt communities in other nations as well. And people like her need support and help staying safe. The best thing we can do is spread info about people like Kasha Nabagesera, make it so there will be consequences if people like her disappear due to homophobic actions.
She is willing to be gay in a country where you can go to jail basically for life or be sprayed pink with paint at a gay rally to make it easier for others to track you down to kill. I do not care if you are tired of hearing about Africa, none of us are free till all of us are free, no matter how many people get tired of us "whining about things".
Another nation to support lgbt communities is Vietnam, where gay people are slowly catching up to the west, and more support could lead to the idea of gay marriage becoming real there and in Taiwan.

I was unsure how to post things here, but I felt I had to say something.
Everyone just needs to be pushing, no matter how annoyed others get.
That is what I am talking about, supporting the gay people and protecting them from being killed since your religious leaders pay off politicians in poorer countries to have people like me killed.
You know we have talked as friends and have gotten along, do people like me or your other friends deserve to be beaten on the street or thrown out of their homes?
Imagine if your religion was persecuted in your country, and when you try to get support, people say things like "oh, we personally believe you are wrong, so you have to suffer for out personal salvation." How would you feel?
I am not afraid of god. I do not want his kingdom or his people. I want someone I can love, and we can be together as you and the rest of the world hate us.
Do you see yourself as something horrible and have to worry about everyone abandoning you? The people who are supposed to love you unconditionally suddenly pulling it away? Not even trying to understand why you are different?
I am proud to be myself and that I have people to love. I am willing to die if it means people like me can live without people like you trying to kill us or make us feel horrible because we do not follow your own personal beliefs.
Besides, your god saw the future and knew people where going to be gay and have horrible things happen to them, and then let them be created to end up in hell anyway if he was even real.
Plus, that is your own personal religion. What if other religions are right and you chose the wrong path?
I just was upset as I like you as a friend.
