  12. Does anyone know if Amnesty International recognizes sexual
  13. preference as one of their "protected" rights - I remember
  14. hearing something that the global organization, based in 
  15. London does not, while the US organization does.
  16.  
  17. There are some posters around here that claim Amnesty does
  18. recognize people who are arrested on the basis of their
  19. sexual preference as prisoners of consciounce (sp?), and
  20. I wanted to check up on that.

  22. Thanks!
