You have dual citizenship?garric said:Was this some sort of attack against me?
I am an American citizen, as well as a Russian citizen. I grew up in the Soviet Union in a way, though I am an American citizen right now. I am of both countries and I support both of them.
Police start beating people not for their sexual orientation, but for rejection of stopping unapproved demonstration. Conduct of Russian militioners (cops) was legal. BTW, Russia is souvereign state, and nobody couldn't to interfere in Russian internal affairsInsane_Panda said:So, when Hitler was killing the jews, he did it because "you cannot export western democracy and try to somehow apply it to German politics"?.
The repression of a people is not a political issue. It would be if Russia denied certain rights to gays (like many nations do). But when police start beating people based on whom they love, well, then thats a different cup of tea altogether, and something needs to be done. This is the 21st century. You cannot simply use the excuse "you don't understand us" to justify repressive policies.

garric said:And no, I don't love Russia. The country is a mess, a place where I'm afraid to walk the streets after sundown. It is a country run by an authorotarian president and strangled by an oligarchy.
You should know by now that in America, liberals are intolerant to those who are intolerant.garric said:Because I do not subscribe to your liberal doctorine doesn't make me intolerant. Excuse me for having my own beliefs and opinions.
Moderator Action: You do not get to decide what cannot be discussed on this forum. If you don't want to discuss it anymore, then do not post in this thread and do not spam here telling everyone else not to discuss Russian policy. Strongly warned. I would keep that in mind if I were you, fresh off a ban.garric said:Like I said, too few people can understand Russia. Russia is an enigma, you can not debate Russia here. You can't hold Russia up to your standards of America or Europe.
And no, I don't love Russia. The country is a mess, a place where I'm afraid to walk the streets after sundown. It is a country run by an authorotarian president and strangled by an oligarchy.
