I remember a movie, where Bruce Willis stays on the street in the middle of "black neighborhood" wearing a sign that says - "I hate niggers". If I remember correctly he almost got killed, for wearing the sign(sounds awfully familiar when we talk about parades of any kind), so "if you happen to be a white guy - don't go the US", right, Deb?
I'm not saying that it is WISE to hold a gay parade in the middle of a city where the majority of people despise gay people and think they should be executed.
But that doesn't excuse the actions of those who attacked and beat them, does it, Doomer?

By the way, I found this study fascinating and revealing (even though it confirmed something I've known for a long time):

Anyway, I have no wish to further derail the Snowden thread into a debate about gay rights. As far as Russia goes, gays have no rights. But it saddens me that people are so easily distracted from the REAL ISSUES, by silly things like trying to control what others can or can't do in bed.
