'Winter Olympics: Putin cautions gay visitors to Sochi'
 

A lot of athletes have been seeing how it will pan out - It will be interesting to see how this will affect decisions...

If I was an athlete that had been training all my life to go to an Olympics? - It's an incredibly difficult question.....

It would be really dumb to miss the Olympics over one country's law regarding homosexuality in their own country. Short of rounding up gays and gassing them no athlete should miss the Olympics over Putin's policy.

You have drawn your own line in the sand - Gassing Gays - Can you see why gays might have a different line?..

Luckily,the biggest issue in the world right now is that homosexuals cant kiss infront of children in public in russia.Thank fuck all that wars ended and poverty exists no more,so we can focus on what really is important.

He didn't go any further than what he's said before. He just re-stated the law.

If I was an athlete I'd be more worried about a terrorist attack, which I think is very likely.

Almost all fags are attention whores. Olympics are about sports, not gay propaganda.

If I was an athlete, I wouldn't be sat at a computer posting on GFY :)

a bit harsh IMO however, yes the Olympics are not about gay rights... the Olympics are about sports... Russia has every right in the world NOT to want gay propaganda in the media :2 cents:

True. Which is why Putin really should just shut his pie hole. Every time he 'restates' this law it brings the whole gay rights thing to the forefront.

Nope, because homosexual relations and/or being gay are not forbidden in Russia. As it clearly states in the quote from OP.

A bit harsh, but true. Being gay or gay relations are not forbidden in Russia, yet Op is trying to stir the shit. Unless he thinks that gay athlete must go and promote homosexuality in public. But I think gay athletes go there to participate in sports.

Not unlike your mother who is a real whore. :thumbsup

Oh and since you are clearly a moron let me set you straight. The Olympics are about selling merchandise and nothing whatsoever to do with actual sports sport.

I don't think Obama will attach Russian to liberate the gays... you never really know though, do ya? the reason Putin does that is because every time he does it makes the USA looking scum to the Middle East. in some cultures, like cultures that have oil, being gay isn't fabulous etc..

For the incredibly ignorant stupid cunts posting in this thread, watch this

and this



It's like apartheid, you don't want to be seen accepting these disgusting times.

And to pretend nothing has changed is laughably naive.

If these athletes will not promote homosexuality to children, they'll be ok. You (western people) are screaming too much about nothing.

BTW, in Florida (USA) usual oral sex among two mature people is illegal considered as sodomy. Do you practice oral sex? If yes, would you visit the USA or decide to avoid such an anti-liberal place?

Don't make me start liking you - It's not natural:upsidedow...

Why should we watch some stupid clown who has no clue about Russian laws? Why don't you suggest us to watch North Korean TV news about life in the USA?

Its a throw back law that nobody has bothered overturning - You also can't take your flock of Geese over Tower Bridge in London during Easter - Or something like that...

A very poor argument CyberSEO.....

Man did you read this law? Did you note any mention of gays there? How could it be anti-gay if it's clearly anti-pedophile one? Why you - Western people think that Russian children should not be protected from promoting non-traditional sex?

So, Russian children should only be sexually abused by heterosexuals and other 'traditional' methods?..

Think about it for fuck sake.....

It's not about abuse. Abuse is a crime and being punished here by a prison time. Please don't try to manipulate with these things.

In school we have a sexual education for children, where they get learned how exactly they were born and how exactly it is related to sex between male and female. Do you consider it wrong?

Now, for fuck sake, tell me why they (the kids) should be promoted to homosexual relations? As I said above, normal (you can call it traditional) sex is a part of human life. They simple can't learn human anatomy without knowing about sex (no sex -> no life).

I wouldn't say Vitaly Milonov has "no clue" about Russian law, but he certainly is an utterly ridiculous ignorant homophobic cunt.

If you watched the first one you'd see it is RUSSIAN people explaining how they are getting beaten up by anti-gay groups and the police are ignoring it, etc etc.

But really, don't let the truth change your view about things on your own doorstep, believe the propaganda, comrade.

Russia will end rise when Putin resign

He is a well-known lunatic. So what? Do you interview every lunatic in the UK and make it a news? Congrats on that then.

Yes they are. Don't you have homophobics in the UK? Don't they beat gays there? Should I drop here some youtube video on that? How exactly Russian homophobics are related to the mentioned anti-pedophile law?

Propaganda is something you live in. I live in Russia and know about the things here from my own eyes and ears. As I told earlier, there is more gay clubs in Moscow and Saint Petersburg than in a whole your country. The mentioned law, has no relation to gays. Furthermore, it never been applied. Yes, while you are crying about "those pure Russian children who you can't promote a male-to-male sex", nobody was fined for that here.

Eddy I think the gay agenda has so permeated the western press that what ever you've heard about the Russian laws has been manipulated and distorted to drive an agenda that has nothing to do with truth.. possibility the statues really IS about pedophilia... however it's much more divisive to portray the law as being biased against gays thus pushing the a bigoted hate filled agenda

Exactly.

You have to wonder who's funding the protest groups and giving them airtime.

AmeriKa are the ones to blame, if his pie hole is open :

I see your point .... Putin is going around the world on a talk show circuit .... :1orglaugh :warning

Lets just quote what Putin clearly said once again:

"We don't have a ban on non-traditional sexual relations"

For the ignorant and drama stirring types.

So I guess men's figure skating has been canceled!

From the standpoint of evolutionary biology and our innate need to insure the survival of our own genes, that of the group and the survival of a culture and nation... its logical that in order to save a nation who's single largest problem in the last 20 years has been the massive flight of people and declining birth rates, there would be a harsh stance against behaviors which are detrimental to that end.

Behaviors only appear insane to the ignorant and those who make no attempt to understand them.

How does encouraging an intolerant attitude to homosexuality help the 'survival of a culture and nation'? - People will be gay whether the state approves or not...

i did not know you can become homosexual by choice.

I am saying that as people, we are born with a great deal of intolerance to those things which do not serve the purpose of furthering our genes. It's not about a logical argument... its about a set of behaviors that over 10,000,000 years have proven to be many times more correct than wrong.

I am not cruel. I sympathize with anyone having to deal with intolerance and bigotry, however, at some point its also on you for how you feel. People are not what you want them to be... they simply are what they are. So its up to you to deal with it. You can focus on the here and now and the things that make you happy and pursue those things, or you can tell yourself everyday that life is unfair, the world is cruel and people are assholes and that you need to fight to right all the wrongs in the world. Life is short....

"The mind is its own place and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven." - John Milton

They are against homo propaganda/advertisement, not against gay relations. How many times it should be reminded to you?

They are encouraging an intolerant attitude - Can you not see that?..

TO UNDERAGE KIDS

P.S. This just should be added :2 cents:

EddyTheDog, are you going to visit Russia soon and do you have some sexual appetence to our children? I mean if not, you should not be worried about this law, because here you can absolutely free visit gay clubs, advertise homosexual contacts to 18+ guys and even have sex with them (course if they agree). Why are you so disturbed with a civilian law (even-non criminal one) which doesn't allow you to promote homosexual acts to children in Russia. Please explain.

Interesting article...

http://digitaljournal.com/article/357671

There are dozens of videos like that.....

This behavior is being encouraged by government policy - I know that its far from perfect in the US and here in the UK as well - We are discussing Russia because you're in the spotlight due to the Olympics...

We have had this argument before - I will not ignore abuse happening in other countries because of a line on a map.....

Nice post man :1orglaugh:1orglaugh
