Hunted In Russia

A very disturbing look into the homophobic attitudes in Russia...vigilante groups are thriving since Putin regards being homosexual as immoral...and enacted a new anti-gay propaganda law to silence homosexuals...

Attacking homosexuals is now a sport and often their victims are beaten and humiliated and the videos of these crimes are posted on social media...
Many vigilantes claim that homosexuals are p*dophile...giving these groups a reason for violent behaviour...

Police often turn a blind eye to such attacks on the gay community...with no support from the police or government...they live in fear...keeping their sexuality behind closed doors...

Welcome to the new era of extremism...

@ LouLou - wave ... Makes me sick that in this day and age people in developed countries are still doing this.... barf


On a more pleasent note, Girl:

Yeah its a shame that people can have such a draconian view of these issues, Is it fear, anger or just in their upbringing,

Sad for the police and politicians too,
a number are probably "in the closet" and live in fear of this humiliation if they align themselves to the problem. sad flower

Hi non...which cop?
@sands,
the one who wanted your passport for 12 days,
or perhaps it was not a cop, sorry. My bad thumbs up
non, oh, it was a travel agent in Latvia just being the middle man between the Russian consulate and me........The sad part was that I thought St. Pete was a must see and beautiful city, sorry I will never get to see it.....
loulou,
Yes Germany have a problem as does Poland of all places
non
I find that hard to fathom...any reasons why?...find this phenomenon fascinating...particularly young people...
I was about to say what Sands just said. Rage and fear is everywhere. Just being different, in any way, is enough to make you hated by somebody, somewhere. When it is several somebodies nearby, atrocities happen.

I have a bit of a rage problem with the media. I believe they whip it up, where they could calm it down. very mad

Maybe they should buy an island and live there instead of trying to co-exist with people who are different or people who do not hate...then we can go about our business in peace...just a thought...
thats a real good thought, if not their own island give em a country, I understand you can get greece 10 cents on the dollarrolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

I was chatting with a woman from Greece today and its very very bad there.....I hope things get better quickly, will find out next week...

Nothing like 40 degree (Celsius) for the haters...their own private hell...they will need a lot of sun block lotion...lol...I would love to sell them some for a good over inflated price

As for the Greek people I am hopeful that a new agreement will be made and Greece will once again rise from the financial crisis...fingers crossed...cheers

I don't subscribe to your point of view...this documentary was posted to show how ignorance and fear leads to unjust acts...

Watch the video and try to keep your comments about the subject matter...keep your personal opinions about me out of this discussion...

I can't even imagine what it's like for those in other countries where it's against the law and punishable by death. sighblues

I think Harper's time is up. banana He is a right winger. The race is very close right now though but I don't think he'll win. I'll be glad when he's gone.applause
