VICE - Young and Gay in Putin's Russia
Vice documentary

http://m.vice.com/vice-news/young-and-ga...sia-part-1

Quote:When Russian President Vladimir Putin banned gay "propaganda" in June last year, Russia's LGBT community went from being a stigmatized fringe group to full-blown enemies of the state. Homophobia becoming legislation means it’s now not only accepted in Russia but actively encouraged, which has led to a depressing rise in homophobic attacks and murders.

The main aim of the law, which essentially bans any public display of homosexuality, is to prevent minors from getting the impression that being gay is normal. Which means that, if you’re young and gay in Putin’s Russia, you’re ostracized and cut off from any kind of legal support network.

We traveled to Russia ahead of February's Sochi Winter Olympics to investigate the effects of the country's state-sanctioned homophobia. In the first part, we take a ride in Moscow's gay taxi service, hear about the rise of homophobic vigilante groups, and meet Yulia, who runs LGBT self-defense classes.

If you do not approve of gays, YOU MUST BE HOMOPHOBIC OR A CLOSET FAG.

Our logic and what is scarily becoming worldwide logic.

I approve of Russia sticking to its guns. You wanna be gay, do it in private.

Same shit, you can be legally killed in many countries by government police and sentenced to death by the court, you wont see liberals from this side of the world saying shit about it, in Russia when the police arrive is always to protect the gay from the mob, not to kill the gay, is ridiculous seeing Obama talking about gay right in Russia when in his paternal country (Kenya) homosexuality is punished with death.
