Where is the outrage by the liberal press comparable to Russia’s very limited anti homosexual propaganda law?
Weird. I searched for Mark J. Newton and NYTimes but wasn’t able to find them reporting on him.
Since he and his boyfriend are the basis for the new child protection laws in Russia, I thought for sure they would have reported what he did.
Beatdowns occur every week in America (knockout game or just random hate crimes on white people) and the NYet Times cannot be bothered to report on it. “Local crime stories” they say.
Pink Journalists are killing the newsworthiness of the media.
This is the media set up for allowing African homosexuals to come in droves to the USA as refugees. We don’t have enough AIDS carriers and sexual devients.
Cry me up a storm.
How about President Goodluck Jonathan’s mob vs. a Chicago Knockout Game mob in a Steel Cage Death Match streaming live on the internet! Popcorn please!
Its okay. Its only a mob of Muslims.
This probably has nothing to do with the new law. Abuja is under Sharia and under that judicial system homosexuality was already against the law and subject to severe penalties. It is majority Muslim. Mob violence against suspected homosexuals was happening before the law passed.
Sounds like a Nigerian cultural thing and none of our business.
Africa!! The cradle of civilization. Yeah, all cultures are the same, aren’t they?
The Daily Show had a segment a couple of days ago that was around eight excruciating minutes of homosexual propaganda. It featured this really smarmy correspondent interviewing Russians and basically mocking their country for not celebrating homosexuality as America has under Obama, even at one point saying the fact that 74% of Russians oppose homosexuality was something about which Russians should be “ashamed”. The whole thing made me realize why Russia would ban homosexual propaganda, because that is what it was.
Nigeria is half Christian and half Muslim. Homosexuals there KNOW their country, people and values. Yet they FLAUNT themselves. They are ASKING for the notoriety and CANNOT be shocked, stunned or even surprised at the reaction they got.
Such a fake, unnecessarily incendiary piece from a lib rag. There are no laws against being “gay.” There are laws against BEHAVIOR.
What the referenced Nigerian penal code (Chapter 21, Articles 214 and 217) actually says is that same-sex sexual activities is illegal and can be punished by imprisonment of up to 14 years throughout Nigeria.
The problem here is that once again, the insinuation is that such a law discriminates against a group of people who are claiming special status (all on the basis of non-provable and self-declarative statements) that is based on them have intrinsic characteristics over which they had no control on becoming the individuals that they are…. as opposed to a group of people who are actively engaged in doing something that in this case the government has made illegal. In fact, it’s clear that the law is specifically targeting those who engage in anal sex. There may be many reasons why governments might take such actions. However, given that that the easiest and most common way to transmit AIDS is by anal sex and that in poor villages in the countryside there are instances where up to 90% of the population has been eliminated by AIDs… is it really that difficult to comprehend a government enacting a law that makes such sexual practices (that have a proven track record leading to death) illegal?
