Gays take Medvedev to Court
Moscow Gay Pride organisers have filed a complaint against Dmitry Medvedev at the European Court of Human Rights. They accuse the President of inaction following their request to stage a gay march in the Russian capital in May 2008.
Russia’s gay rights movement decided to seek justice in Strasbourg after courts at home rejected their complaints.
The latest appeal is the seventh that Russian gay activists have made to the Human Rights Court for alleged rights violations.
The standoff between gay activists and the authorities has been going on for years. And gays and lesbians have been on the losing side, so far.
Even though homosexuality is no longer a crime in Russia, unlike the USSR, post-Soviet society seems reluctant to treat sexual minorities as equals.
Gays say they’re the victims of historic prejudice, what they call ‘homophobia’.
For years they have tried to stage a parade – similar to those held annually in other major cities around the globe. But each time – in 2006, 2007 and 2008 - the city authorities have refused to give the green light to Moscow Pride.
Who’s responsible?
After the latest refusal in May of last year, gay activists applied to the President for permission to hold a parade with 200 participants in Aleksandrovsky Garden – right next to the Kremlin walls.
The choice of location might seem strange at first but it has an explanation: the area is one of very few places in the Russian capital that is under the jurisdiction of the President but not the city government.
The letter was sent to the presidential administration. And, according to the law, Moscow Pride organisers had the right to receive a reply within 30 days. However, no answer followed. Instead, the administration forwarded the letter to Moscow officials.
GayRussia website quotes Nikolay Alekseev, the organiser of Moscow Pride: “Presidential administration officials probably again wanted to put all responsibility on Moscow authorities.”
The statement went on: “It’s a pity that the President, even though he proclaimed that he would fight for human rights, did not interfere and put an end to the unlawful actions of Moscow officials.”
Is Moscow ready for Gay Pride?
It seems unlikely that gays will be allowed to stage a parade on the streets of Moscow in the near future.
In December, 2008, Yury Luzhkov, the city’s mayor, said that authorities would continue their policy against homosexuals. He called gay parades “weapons of mass destruction” and “Satanist actions”.
Meanwhile, it’s not only the city authorities who are opposed to staging gay marches in Moscow. Many in this Orthodox Christian country believe that homosexual sex is sinful.
Many other people, whose religious beliefs are not so strong, regard homosexuality as something ‘wrong’ and therefore can’t accept it.
All previous attempts made by gays to stage an unsanctioned rally have resulted in clashes with anti-gay protesters and police.

It's interesting that liberals always tout homosexuality as being "perfectly natural", but what they don't tell you is the specific way that it's "natural".
Homosexuality has been proven to be a genetic ABNORMALITY where, in a homosexual male, the brain has the same shape that a heterosexual female's brain would have...and vice-versa for females.
This means that homosexuality is a DISEASE, and just as "perfectly natural" as the common cold, parkinson's, and AIDS.
Just some knowledge that I think everyone should be armed with if ever confronted by fag apologists.

Archie would know a lot about homosexuality from his "mentoring" sessions (in the classical Greek way, I mean) with his idol Ron Paul, wouldn't he?
-
i hate gays,and i can't understand them.
and for medvedev i think he is just a pion in putin hands,but i like him.
and no hard feelings,that's my personal opinion,i'm raised in my family to be rusophil
especially russian girls :laugh:
-
This gays are an abomination. They belong to total destruction. They have no right to complain.
-
Lets hope the court room they are in gets tainted with Carbon Monoxide, then the winner of the case would be JTF!

Well, if this is a genetic decease, do you think that with lax, pro-gay laws, allowing civil union, we will reduce the number of "gay-carrying" genome passing from one generation to generation, which will lead to decrease of # of gays in the West and increase of the number of closet gays in muslim societies? What do you think?

I doubt it, you can't reduce the number of gays regardless of what you do unless you actively scan them for the disease as children and murder them in masses, at least not with today's technology....but just knowing that it's a genetic anomaly helps us to identify it early on (as with other things we will be able to identify, like heart disease, alzheimer's, etc.) and possibly treat it. At least, in a normal world you would do that...in today's ridiculous society there is no way the government would endorse genetic screening for the "gay gene".
To answer your question though, lax pro-gay laws would have no effect other than distorting the views of many to believe that it is "normal" (as they do now) rather than a defect, as down's syndrome is. Gays in muslim societies, I think, will never in their lives see half the freedom they see here, which I think is a good thing...but, as I said, the only way to reduce the number of gays in the West (any anywhere, really) is to pre-screen fetuses/babies for the defect and attempt to fix it. Who knows, one day we might be able to eliminate all defects before the baby is even born, which would be amazing.

increase of the number of closet gays in muslim societies?
Muslim societies are already loaded with faggots, no "closeting" necessary. Many Islamic cultures believe homosexuality isn't wrong unless one plays the passive role in faggot intercourse.

Muslims are promised 72 virgin girls and 350 boys as reward for death in line of jihad, and I've seen many arabs walking hand by hand on the streets of Tunisian streets so...
And back to Medvedev and Putin I was raised to hate soviets but I'm more and more like the new Russia:

Christians-liberals once hissed off Patriarch Kirill for opposing divorces and homosexual "marriages" – witness
Moscow, February 5, Interfax – Head of the Information and Publishing Administration of the Synodal Youth Department Deacon Mikhail Pershin believes that one of the main talents of the 16th Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia Kirill is his ability to “secure foundations” of Orthodoxy in inter-confessional dialogue.
Fr. Mikhail told in his interview to the Komsomolskaya Pravda daily how at the inter-Christian Assembly 2007 in Romania Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk and Kaliningrad specified “extremely negative” attitude of the Russian Church to legalization of homosexual “marriages,” gay consecration and divorces and thus opposed the “tolerant speeches” of other participants.
“I sat upstairs and saw how some Catholics stood up and started applauding, while the majority were stamping their feet and cried out as all their liberal shrines were defied! And they were defied in a competent way so that they had nothing to contradict,” Fr. Mikhail said.
According to him, Catholics then thanked Metropolitan Kirill for “saying aloud what was whispered behind the closed doors,” while other Christian figures kept away from the Moscow Patriarchate delegation.
“Summing up I can say that we won’t feel bored under the new Patriarch,” Fr. Mikhail said
