  2. Dear oppressed brothers and sisters: I am pleased to tell you that most
    major cities in Canada, including the Capital, Ottawa, have today raised
    the rainbow flag to show our support for you. The Mayor of Ottawa, Jim
    Watson, has said that it will fly in front of our City Hall during the
    Winter Olympics. Have courage. People of good will, gay and straight,
    support you all over the world. This stupid law will be defeated.

    And by the way, here is an interesting fact. Homosexuality is found in over
    450 species. Homophobia is found in only one. Which one seems unnatural
    now?

  3. Has mother Russia stopped to love 10% of her children?
    I think not! Only those who do not love Mother Russia do not love all her
    children!
    All children of Mother Russia you are not alone!
    Greetings from Serbia

  6. c’mon guys! start a lawsuit at the european court of human rights.. russia
    signed the god damn european convention of human rights!

  8. The mass media and so called “humant right organisations” in Western
    countries doesn’t give a fuck about 15 millions people, which starve to
    death every year, they don’t report all the dead, which were killed by
    Nato, but the ALLEGEDLY extreme Russian homophbia is really a big
    problem… Sure! Don’t let you brainwash. Better try to understand, what is
    going on in Russia and what are the reasons for this alleged anti-gay law.

  10. I hate the fact that some assholes in the world are too jealous of love to
    say that only their love is legal. I hope that anyone saying that LGBT
    rights are not rights is still at home alone thinking about a love that
    they will never have. I will stand with anyone to stop this bullshit about
    “no equality”.

  12. nobody understand, what you really wanted. you can reading, writing and
    debate on anything gay everywhere, isn’t it? Aside from TV, but reason is
    clear

  14. Go back to 1975 and search Anita Bryant. She resisted homosexual perversion
    and it hrt her career. But she was correct.

    All of this gay crap in the USA is only because of the large numbers of
    stupid USA people who vote for the homocrat party. Thank You Mr Putin for
    preventing the perverts in USA from raping your children.

  15. Progress occurs thanks to people like this who boldly stand up for the
    right thing and for their freedoms. I applaud the noble efforts of these
    people.

  19. We’ll be crossing our fingers for you in the U.S. It is both terrifying and
    infuriating the discrimination you are dealing with. I pray this ridiculous
    law will be defeated. If not, I’ve got lots of floor space in Pittsburgh.

  20. I wish they found another problem. Because protecting gay rights is not
    necessary. They are usual people and others should not pay any attention
    for this.

  21. How much more beneficial can you get? This is safeguarding one of the most
    basic rights a human being can have–the right to be whomever you are and
    not have to hide behind a false facade.

  24. “We Will Not Be Silenced!”: A message from St Petersburg and the good folks
    at allout

  26. Polina and I have been very close, tho geographically far apart, for many
    years now. I can’t express how proud I am of what she has done in Russia
    over the last few years with regard to the LGBT movement, but things aren’t
    getting any easier over there. Watch, think, share.

  29. Guys, please help to spread this – our Russian friends need help.

  31. russia is in direct violation with the un, european court and council
    aswell as international human rights laws. considering how the biggest
    governing bodies on out earth are now suggesting that russias new laws are
    illegal, i can not see any validity or salience in arguing for anti gay
    laws. all peoples on this earth are equal whether you like it or not.

  32. Simple truth of the matter is this if 2 gay people affect your
    heterosexual marriage then it isnt the gay people that are the problem its
    the MARRIAGE to begin with your OWN if its that fragile and delicate
    especially. Secondly this country needs to be protected from people like
    YOU not people like me Im certainly not living my life trying to bash
    people for being different thats your job REAL MAN not mine you should be
    so proud . 🙂

  33. Assumptions lead to miscommunication. What you mean by “appropriate
    qualification,” I don’t know.

  34. Primitive tribalism. You also go on to negate all other people who do not
    conform to your model of belief (Slavic values, and so on), labeling them
    as leftists. There is no left or right.

  35. You got quite an imagination there, but fine I’ll repeat myself since you
    have a reading comprehension problem. Gays are a non-issue, the law is
    passed, thats done and over with, next week they’ll pass another exciting
    law, like instituting paid parking in the center of Moscow that has about
    the same degree of relevance. But foreigners whining about what we should
    and should not do in OUR country…thats something I take issue with.

  36. ultraliberalism? You definitely are a typical conservative another one
    incapable of accepting or respecting different ideals that may differ from
    yours im afraid.

  37. Progressive is just a label. It doesn’t actually have anything to do with
    progress.

  40. Olcalif said it perfectly who was the one who made the comment about REAL
    men first ? Oh yes thats right that was YOU get a life if possible and a
    semblance of common sense as well. Nothing to protect your family or
    country from you are flat out insane ive met plenty like you on this site
    trust me I know it when I see it and comments like that are as unstable as
    it gets period.

  42. I was referring to “progressives” who as you know come in all different
    kinds of sexual orientation, and I stand by those words. Or did you mean
    something else then you referred to yourself as “evolved”?

  43. Uhh I already knew you were Russian by how you came across dude HOURS and
    HOURS ago trust me. The fact that you condoned what those paratroopers did
    to that guy and using it as an excuse that hes a GINGER and thats why he
    didnt matter speaks for itself. You may not have said that mind you but you
    were definitely thinking that way. People like you always devalue other
    human beings worth simply because they do not fit into your stereotypical
    boring little box of labels and prejudices.Oh well.

  44. Sorry, didn’t realize you’re “special needs”, let me break this down for
    you. You made an attempt to insult me by making a ridiculous claim based
    off of something I said; then I attempted to turn it back on you; then you
    suddenly got a brain aneurysm that caused you to forget what simple sarcasm
    is; and here we are at the end of that magical journey.

  45. Been there done that ive heard so many justifications rationalizations vile
    garbage and excuses for why people are the way they are in this world and
    why they have the amount of hatred and bigotry that they have towards this
    specific subject. Once again your issues not mine thankfully my parents
    raised me better in those regards .

  46. You are just as braindead as the one you are responding to at least you
    made a friend you have something in common with. Oh the IRONY! 🙂 Once
    again also your comment made NO SENSE you dipshit considering DUHHH of
    course we came from 2 heterosexuals and your point? Oh thats right you dont
    have one you are just desperately clinging to ANYTHING and everything you
    can to debase and discriminate against anyone who happens to be gay. Great
    job! 🙂
