Ever had a glass of Bailey's Irish Cream? Then you might be a homer! Fortunately Bailey's is banned in all Freehold bars since several decades back, along with a whole list of other homer drinks.
Much like in Freehold, laws in the Christian nation of Cameroon are very strict regarding the consumption of Bailey's and other drinks that are exclusively for women and queers.
If you are a man and drinks Bailey's, you might as well be a sodomite.
So to rather be safe than sorry, a Godly Christian judge in Cameroon had decided to sentence a man to 5 years in prison for suspected homerism after he was caught drinking Bailey's Irish Cream.

Man caught drinking Bailey's Irish Cream jailed for 'being a homosexual'
Cameroon has strict laws against same sex relations and police often use stereotypes as evidence to back up the accusations
Shocking: Homosexuality has been illegal in Cameroon since 1972
A man who loved drinking Bailey's Irish Cream was convicted by a Cameroon judge for 'being a homosexual'.
Having same sex relations has been illegal in the African country since 1972 and anyone accused of doing so can be fined and even handed a prison term as long as five years.
Now a Cameroonian lawyer has lifted the lid on the country's farcical legal system after defending dozens of people he claims were accused of homosexuality.
Michel Togue claims hardly anyone is caught in the act of actually having sex so once an accusation of homosexuality is made, police use bizarre evidence based on stereotypes to convict them.
One such example was his client who was accused of having 'feminine mannerisms'.
Mr Togue claims a judge convicted him on the basis that he drank Bailey's Irish Cream, which he felt was a woman's drink.
He told Think Progress that many of the accusations of homosexuality are made up by disgruntled neighbours, family members or even scorned former lovers.
Other examples of people being convicted include two women who had been in jail for 9 months after neighbours reported them - despite there being no evidence.
And three men arrested by police for allegedly having sex in a vehicle - they denied this - were convicted solely on the basis that they were dressed effeminately.
Mr Togue said: "To catch people having sex, to catch them in the act, you have to break the law. You have to violate their privacy, which is an offense.
“But the police will not focus on the offense of breaking the privacy of someone, but they will focus on the fact that they saw two people of the same gender having sex.”
He says most of the stigma around homosexuality is driven by religious sectors in the country.
In 2012, former Cameroon archbishop Simon-Victor Tonyé Bakot described homosexuality as a "shameful, a disrespectful criticism of God who has chosen to create man and woman.”

I suggest you not only throw that liquid away but take it to a senior pastor for exorcism! And you should confront your in-laws with the heavy artillery of KJV. Not all in-laws are like Jethro. They can let you down and lead to destruction!
