Moscow city courts have upheld a ruling that in essence bans gay pride parades in that city for 100 years. The decision was rendered this week and already the Russian LGBT community is planning to fight it.
In response to Moscow's earlier ruling that they would ban gay pride parades for 100 years, Russian LGBT rights leader Nikolay Alekseyev had sought a permit to have pride parades in Moscow each year until 2112. Moscow's municipal courts denied his request and now the appeal of that verdict has been lost.
LGBT to challenge in European Court of Human Rights Alekseyev and other leaders of the LGBT community in Russia and elsewhere say the next challenge will be in the European Court of Human Rights. Russia has been a member of that court for over 12 years and cases originating in that country make up about 20 percent of the cases heard in the court. In the area of LGBT rights, the court recently ruled that same-sex marriages were not a "human right."
The Russian government has said that rulings such as that of the Moscow City Council are not anti-gay but rather rulings that protect "the majority's rights." President Vladimir Putin has not commented on controversial decisions by his government involving the LGBT community and Andre Banks of the LGBT rights organization All Out, has said that Putin will end up on the wrong side of history.
I disagree...
The US State Dept. is full of neo-communists and they tried to steal the Russian election.
This is more leftist subterfuge against Putin for opposing a war in Syria, among other things, in which our own political “leaders” are willing to cozy up to the likes of Koffi Annan or the EUSSR and allow our armed forces to be used as a military welfare program for the whims of the leftist internationale.
Witness the constant drumbeat in the media about the USA ‘needing to do something’ about Syria, and that pathetic turd McAmnesty McCain playing the same tune of the international ‘human rights’ racket. Have a read of Don Rumsfeld’s book where under the guise of ‘human rights’ McCain and Graham skipped off on a ‘human rights’ crusade and undermined our efforts in Afghanistan.
(T.E. Lawrence drove the Turks out for a reason, but the multi-cultural Western Left is all too happy to let them back in.)
Putin is obviously not our ideal of political leadership in the USA, but he is really a Russian Cossack. The Cossacks were of the White Army factions during the Russian Bolshevik Revolution and suffered great repressions and starvation at the hands of the Red Army.
The gaystapo lobby in Russia is directly linked to the American Democrat politburo. Putin might be seen as a real prick here, but he is their prick... and I really don’t care if he has them all liquidated, they are more of any enemy than he ever could be.
Hopefully the former and not the latter...
The international ‘human rights’ racket is seen for what it is in Russia, they know a Marxist when they see one unlike a lot of Americans.
100 year ban starting now.
We did just fine for years and years without recognizing special privileges for folks like these, they should have stayed in the closet!
I do hear what you are saying, but we have opened the door to all sorts of evils. Whatever happened to the good old days when people were ashamed of their bad behavior?
Didn't you hear were old school out of date bad and shameful behavior is the new chic~ the more you get laughed at and show off and go to jail the more respect you earn with the snakes and snails !
A sane society based on natural law has a right - and a duty to the citizens - to prevent public displays or support or promotion of perversion, vice and mental illness.
Prohibiting public parades by mentally ill sex perverts has nothing to do with tyranny or kings; and everything to do with a sane and rational government guided by natural law. I’m not praising Putin’s government other than in this regard, it is defintely doing a much better job than ours. Our government is pushing sexual perversion and mental illness on the entire country and it has to come to a screeching halt and reverse course at top speed. People are getting sick and tired of mentally ill perverts running the show. They are at most 2% if that, and they should go back to their nasty little closets.
This is great news!
AMEN
Any society that celebrates it is a decaying society as ours surely is.
I know all full well that Putin is a KGB Thug who got elected president of Russia, however, if there’s one thing I do agree with, it’s that if people want to protest gay rights, dress normally, or even more critically, actually have clothes on rather than walk down the street dressed like a stripper or cross-dressing. I have no problem with what people do in their private time, so long as they keep their private business where it belongs.
Again, it’s rediculous when people pretty much walk down the street either cross-dressed or hardly wearing anything, if even anything at all down the street. WHy can’t our government at least act someone to dress somewhat casual?
Guess i never thought of it that way i was looking from a tyrannical point of view you have a very valid point spot on !
Libertinism and “anything goes” is not the same as liberty based on natural law. THe funny thing about libertinism is what the hedonists want to do (and of course in public, etc) always gets more extreme. They want no limits at all. Any drug, any sex fetish without any restraint, any activity - now they want to normalize pedophilia, etc.
And the result? Naked people running around chewing other peoples’ faces, millions of molested kids, abortions, millions of illegitimate kids and slut mothers and beast of the field fathers, etc.
If the gov didn’t subsidize all that stuff much of the problem would go away. And the rest would go away once the gov stops forcing it down our throats.
