It looks like many people are on the side of the bullies. Here and elsewhere.
In terms of case here in Ottawa, there were no charges laid as nobody knows who was doing the bullying. However, Rick Mercer says that more should have been done to find those responsible: |
That's great! (EDIT: I mean it's great you are moving towards harsher anti-bullyng laws. I hate bullies)

How about you telling me your real name, age, home adress, yearly income, how often do you sleep with your wife and do you sleep with someone else? If you refuse, I say that you violate my right to seek and receive information (see article 19).
If you walk on the street and see a 10 years old boy, you can not express to him your opinion, that your penis is bigger than his, even if it is true. You can, however, go to some site and post that you met a boy on the street, but your penis is bigger than his.
You can express any opinions as long, as you do it in the appropriate place. You don't have a right to express your opinions in other people's faces. Thing that you can not get is that if human rights assumed pride parades, countries that signed human rights declaration at 1948 would have started those parades right away. Which is not the case at all.

They also operate in some pretty distant towns of russia, which, of course doesn't make them any less horrible, but does make them less of a representation of what's happening in the more civilized western part of Russia. However, if you are LGBT activist who feels like coming over and contribute to punishing them, I give you a very warm welcome.

VK page. So, two monthes in and there's not a single $150 fine issued yet. Definitely a gays witch hunt going on!
Funny thing that right after I told you what you need/should do to stop teens suicide nobody really responded with anything like "yeah, that's what we probably should do". Everyone just kept attacks which makes me think that you don't care about russian gay teens all that much.
