2. 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.
3. Have you seen from this very same article, that as of right now there's grand total zero people that were convicted under this law. Meanwhile, it is now two monthes old. You have to show the article about this guy, who isn't even convicted yet, because there's no one convicted and fined under this law. Nonetheless, if you care about him, you can follow his VK page. So, two monthes in and there's not a single $150 fine issued yet. Definitely a gays witch hunt going on!
4. 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. |
1. Maybe you should ensure you aren't violating other human rights while you try and make your point, Article 12:
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks
The thing you're unable to understand is that you have the right to seek and receive information, and to impart information. That is not the same as demanding information. You have every right to ASK for information, RECEIVE information, and PROVIDE information. In this instance, you've provided even further evidence of Russia's violation of human rights, as to RECEIVE information is to be given the OPPORTUNITY to HEAR provided information. No one can bar you from hearing or reading provided information. This does not mean you have the right to demand information, but rather that when information is presented, you have the right to absorb it. Every time you try to twist actual laws and human rights, you look worse and worse. It's becoming embarrassing for you.
2. You're using an outlandish example to make it sounds inappropriate.
If a 10 year old boy is on the street and you say "the Conservative government is a sham" then that is fully within reason of the law. You can express your opinion to anybody regardless of age. "It's ok to be gay" is not wrong, perverse, or even an opinion, it is FACT. If someone casually told a child "It's ok to be white" the Russian government would not come down on them, why? What difference is there?
3. Oh sorry, do you Russians have a magical justice system that is able to run people through the system within a month? Because I THOUGHT most things took more than a month. Hey, if I want to fight a parking ticket it takes a month and a half to get a date, and sorry, the Russian justice system isn't nearly comparable to Canada. You're grasping straws trying to make a point of this. The man was charged for a simple sign he held in the city centre, and he will likely be convicted of the offence. This sign goes against the lies you've been telling about "what is allowed" and made it extremely clear that you're interested in lying and stretching the truth in whatever way you please to make your point. Shame.
4. What have you done? Anything? You don't care about Russian teens either. Want to know why people aren't listening or taking you seriously? Because of your unwavering support of bigotry and hate under an embarrassing guise of humanity. Just stop. We get it. You're creating a red herring to distract people and attempt to make everyone look worse. Trust me, you've made yourself look worse than anyone else could have.
