They can choose to change their country. Leaving instead of trying to make a change is betraying the rest of the homosexual community. Then again, the threat of death is pretty extreme. We have no such worries in the US, so we should still try to change the system, rather than moving.

So you are saying one should sacrifice his own happiness for the greater good? And not doing so is cowardice? Even if a person decides to do so based on the consideration that he values his own quality of life higher than that of others?
