Rights activists and immigration attorneys say the surge in the number of Russian asylum applications in the United States has been driven in part by the 2013 law concerning sexual minorities.
Putin has been accused by critics of overseeing a mounting crackdown on dissent -- including against the political opposition and businesspeople not in step with the Kremlin – and fostering stigmatization of sexual minorities since he regained the presidency.
'I Had To Leave'
Vlad, a gay Russian applicant in his 30s, told RFE/RL that he was simply looking to move somewhere where he could live "more freely," and that a lawyer suggested U.S. asylum as an option. He said his family is not aware that he is gay and asked that his last name not be published.
Vlad said in a telephone interview that a man he had dated in Russia was killed after leaving a gay club, and that he believes militant antigay thugs may have been responsible. He said he had also been harassed in Russia due to his sexual orientation.

Russia made it illegal to spew queer propaganda to minors so now they're in trouble if they're approaching minors or trying to interact with them in public. They'll be leaving Russia in droves for the greener pastures of the US and Israel (Israel being rated the number one queer friendly country on the planet).
What other perverts are granted asylum in the US because their perverse behavior isn't tolerated elsewhere?
Thank your democrat overlords and their wealthy backers for making "Sick Perverted MF" a special class of people who deserve expedited, preferential treatment.
