Don't forget that the gay marriage is forbidden in Russia and in a lots of stats in America so clean up your own back yard This attack against Russia is approximately the same than the femen activist group. Who the hell you think finance the femen, these ex prositutes? give them headquarter in the Paris city,Kiev... and 1000 dollars/month. Some riches peaple who have some interest to put down Russia, fight for gay marriage and against religions (christian and Islam only, think about that). Russia did some thing good lately, they banned the adoption of foreign gay couples. Ps: all what i said against femen is proven. Inna Shevchenko,Eloise Bouton.. former prostitutes. And the finance are from Helmut Geier, Beat Schoben, Jed Sundenet, George Soros ... | ||

In reality there exists a 3rd category which comprises the vast majority of the population which is those who dont give a goddamn shit. If the gays would stfu then nobody would care one way or another but they have to force their lifestyle on popular culture which generates a disproportionate backlash. If you are talking about gay rights such as marriage benefits then you are talking about social engineering which is a separate issue from gay discrimination. Uhh... their "lifestyle"? What lifestyle? If they want to get married, then wouldn't that be the "married lifestyle"? You don't just get to call something a "lifestyle" and then pretend that you're not being bigoted. What, are you going to talk about the Jewish lifestyle and black lifestyle? (Ahem, I meant the "Hollywood lifestyle" and "urban lifestyle.") Marriage is a government contract. A lot of the rights have to do with your specific relationship to the government, so it's not like it could be a private contract (like legal rights). So discriminating against gays for this contract is just open discrimination. And actually gays did stfu for quite a long time and they were subjected to maiming, rape, and murder. I'm not exactly sure why you think saying nothing is a good idea for them. On August 06 2013 21:32 woreyour wrote: Russia is too manly for gays. Since when are gays unmanly?

Personally, as a non-Russian, why not look at this as a boon? If the laws are truly that Draconian, I'm sure there are some brilliant homosexual Russian's the rest of the world could steal and put to good use. Brain drain National Socialist Germany style. They run them out, we catch the brains. | ||

They run them out, we catch the brains. The biggest problem is the discretion given to the police since the law is very flexible. When that is said, brain drain doesn't seem impossible, depending again on how police will interpret the law. On the other hand, gays with lesser resources (both economic and knowledge/education) would be screwed even harder. | ||

Why put gay people in camps when you can just call the local police and say "rustle up some of the skinhead gangs to go beat up the gays when they march on Friday" as has happened in Russia several times at least. | ||

Yeah you're right the holocaust was well worth it because the US got to claim Einstein as their own, good job we didn't do anything about Hitler before those 60 million people died, or something really bad might have happened. WW2 what a boon for humanity. | ||

It certainly is more cost effective and less politically damning since the government is actually "doing" anything. I find it unfortunate how gays are treated in Russia. But, similarly I find it unfortunate how they're pandered to in the West. Damned if you do, damned if you don't I suppose. | ||

Russia situation is similiar, yet much worse. See for exmple here: http://www.ibtimes.com/russias-existential-crisis-no-signs-population-drop-will-end-214342 Remember this topic is about Russia. As i pointed before their rapidly shrinking population is one of the reasons behind those anti-homosexual policies. They prefere homosexuals to stay in the closet and create families (but with children). Also immigration isnt really the same thing as population growth, it obviously depends on the outlook shared by countries elite. In Russia immigration isnt really viewed as something good. Its a threat. They want to combat it not encurage it. Remmber that these measures have suport of the vast majority of population. I think it is the general sentiment in most countries in the world that you don't want to deal with too much diversity, since it will result in loosing some of the national identity. That is the reason for the rise in nationalist parties across europe and Denmark pretty much goes further in that direction than any other country in europe, maybe even the world. I am not sure how many closeted gays actually breed children. I suspect that many of them will end up far less desirable for society, living alone and draining public programs in their misery... | ||

Wat. Chill out. Fine, lemme refine that. I never said the holocaust was "worth it". That's ludicrous and I'm not sure what would cause you to jump to that conclusion based on what I wrote. I'm simply saying, why not take advantage of potential opportunities here? The flight of German scientists, academics and geniuses was irrefutably a boon for the United States, are you trying to rebut that? If you don't like the German analogy, how about the Byzantine Refugees to Italian city-states following the fall of Constantinople in 1453? Sorry for picking the most culturally and temporally relevant analogy. | ||

Oh God...shouldn't have written anything.... I'm not saying this from the perspective of "This is what I believe". I'm framing it in terms of Russian sovereignty and different cultural values. What would you have us do? Drive tanks into Russia to protect gay rights? Boycott the Olympics? (never gonna happen in this political climate). If you read my first post all the way through I'm less concerned with Russia and more concerned with how this could be taken advantage of by Western nations (particularly the US) since being upset is just...I don't know, it feels futile? | ||
