      Yes Russian politicians and priests are getting on a new antigay law which will make ilegal the use of the word to describe gay or homossexual… this after the last 2 weeks murders... can you say bad taste? Germany is cutting ties, and so will the rest of europe in hopes that Putin understands at least the meaning of human rights...

          This is so sad that a world leader of his caliber should have to learn the hard way. But he will learn one way or another that ![](http://tracker.gaytorrent.ru/bitbucket/Gay rights.gif)

            I think a lot of it comes from the fact that the country is falling apart and the Putin needs a distraction.

              I don't think that Putin needs distractions. It's more like there is something truly evil about Russian power structures and their government.Why else would they kill people like Anna Politkovskaya, Sergei Magnitsky or Alexander Litvinenko? Why arrest and imprison Pussy Riot for singing a song? These people were no threat to Russian government. But they did dissent. The same goes for the LGBT population in Russia - they don't conform, so they must be the enemy.

                    I agree that it is a distraction while also being a method of unification: Distraction from faltering economy policies and governmental corruption and a unifying factor by way of creating a common enemy; 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' mentality.

                    There's a torrent here> https://www.gaytorrent.ru/details.php?id=2ae342a18677c74cc100d6062ff71e22fab9c6594aec6886 that totally illuminates the governmental sanctioning of violent persecution of Russian lgbt community.

                    As an American, makes me sad. As an atheist; merely confirms my certainty of the hypocrisy between that which is 'religious' and true spirituality.

                    Maybe they should work on a vaccine that cures idiocy? Oh wait; there is a cure for that already- it's called education

                    Thank You,

                      Of course it's a cultural thing,

                      unfortunately you cannot have all-knowing, ex-mafia, badass president (emperor) who everybody looks up to and expect guy like that to understand human rights.

                      Not to mention that the church, which is as stigmatic as anything can be, plays significant role in everyday life in Russia.

                          Homosexuality you are born with. It is not a choice. Homophobia however is not something you are born with, it is a choice.

                                Think of Russia as our Far Far Right Republicans, and you can understand the politics in Russia.  They do not truly care for their people, all they care about is the money that they can make off the back of each citizen.  Once Vladimir Putin was put back in office, he took major control, amended the constitution a few times.  I was a Lieutenant Colonel of the KGB and Boris Yeltsin's right hand man.  I do not hate people, but man I do not like to say this but I hate this man.  :puke:

                                Remember me with smiles and laughter
                                For that's how I will remember you all
                                For if you can only remember with tears
                                Then please don't remember me at all.
