Amnesty International has spoken out against the Russian draft law which outlaws the “propaganda of homosexuality among minors”, saying that it restricts the human rights of LGBT people.

On Friday, the Russian State Duma adopted the first reading of a homophobic censorship bill which would impose federal sanctions for the promotion of “gay propaganda”...

...The statement from Amnesty UK said: “There is no legal definition in the Russian law of what constitutes ‘propaganda of homosexuality’ and the law could be interpreted very loosely. They are going to punish people for something which is perfectly legitimate – expressing themselves, being themselves.”

How do gay people do "propaganda"?

Kids - try being gay - it's awesome!...? It doesn't make any sense.

And
am I the only one who thinks Putin is going for the homo-erotic thing?
Putin Topless
. I think the Russian authorities should be told.

He certainly does it for me. Puts me in mind of a young Merc... :coffee:

As for encouraging homosexuality, I have thus far made it my life-purpose. I may not have been very successful so far though, as all I really seem to be able to do is play stereotypes on internet forums.

Perhaps we should turn this into a gay propaganda thread? We can see if it tears down the moral fabric of the forum.

My offering is this truly excellent record cover.

Russia was so long time under communist rule, it's no wonder there's some backwards 'old-fashioned' people who make these stupid laws... I'm just wondering about their REAL motives, usually when something like this is made under the guise of "protecting our children" it's something completely different why they're really doing it.

Gays first, then who's the next whos 'propaganda' needs to be put under control?

So you agree anarchism is off the political scale as it tolerates none of the intolerances you mention being common to the far left and right?
