In case you don't know, gay sex was punishable by death in the U.S. and U.K. And prior to the 1960's or thereabouts, that's exactly what could happen to you, theoretically at least. Persuant to that, I was just wondering when the last execution occurred, first in the U.S. and also U.K. It must make an interesting story, albeit tragic one.
It still happens in some benighted Countries, alas. Awfully backward them. I’m unaware of any executions in the UK after the Inquisitional medieval days.
