St. Petersburg Russia law questions if gay rights are human rights?

DALLAS, March 18, 2012 — St. Petersburg, Russia has adopted a new policy designed to protect young people from exposure to propaganda by homosexual rights groups. The policy has created controversy amongst gay rights group.
On March 7, 2012, Gov. Georgy Poltavchenko signed into a law a bill that will fine individuals up to $170 and companies up to $17,000 for violating a ban on “public actions aimed at propagandizing sodomy, lesbianism, bisexualism, and transgenderism among minors.”  
The St Petersburg law also includes amendments introducing stricter punishments for pedophilia.

Applauding the recent legislation, the Russian Orthodox Church is calling for a similar nationwide ban. Dmitry Pershin, head of the Church’s youth council, says:  “helping to protect children from information manipulation by minorities that promote sodomy.”

Responding to homosexualist activist Nikolay Alexeyev’s intention to organize protest rallies near children’s establishments, Pershin says “the persistence of sexual minorities and their intention to rally near children’s establishments indicate that this regional law is highly needed and should be urgently given federal status.” 
Gay rights groups are unhappy and clamoring for redress against the government in St. Petersburg.  In 2011 the LGBT activist organization All Out was able to pressure financial services website Paypal to shut down anti-LGBT agenda and Christian blogger Julio Severo’s account, suspending access to funds. 
Now the group is crying foul and calling the law a “gag rule” that “muzzles artists, writers, musicians, citizens and visitors,” and they are the, “We Won’t Go There,” threatening to boycott travel to the Russian city.

AllOut wants anti-“homophobia” bill passed in Brazil

AllOut wants anti-“homophobia” bill passed in Brazil

Brazilian gay website, in partnership with AllOut, denounces opponents of gay dictatorship in Brazil

Socialist parties of Brazil want PLC 122, the main anti-“homophobia” bill in the Brazilian Congress, and other homosexualist laws passed. But what right does AllOut, a US-based homosexualist group, have to press Brazil to copy homosexualist legislations from the US and Europe?
Months ago, AllOut, which brags of having about 900,000 backers, launched a campaign to press PayPal to shut down my account. The campaign was successful, leading PayPal to close my account — showing that AllOut has power and money. The official document, in English, of AllOut bragging of its “victory” against me is available here.
Recently, AllOut requested all its international collaborators to exert pressure on Russia, so that St. Petersburg, the second largest Russian city, would pass a law banning gay propaganda and parades. Even US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton responded to the call from AllOut, condemning St. Petersburg’s law openly and asking Russia not to pass it. This time, despite of AllOut’s clout, AllOut campaign was not successful, because Russians did not cave to the threats.
Now, the eyes of AllOut are on Brazil, and more specifically on PLC 122.
The Brazilian website “PLC 122”, belonging to the Brazilian homosexual movement, revealed first hand that PLC 122 has been targeted by the American organization, which thinks it can force its will on the nations, just as it forced PayPal to act against me. This gay pressure on Paypal was named as the fourth top anti-Christian act of 2011.
The website “PLC 122”, which has some affiliation with AllOut, complains on its page about opposition by me and other Christians to PLC 122.
Decades ago, Brazilian Socialist President Dilma Rousseff would have screamed that AllOut is an imperialistic organization and that the website “PLC 122” is a facade for American imperialistic machinations.
In that time, Mrs. Rousseff and her comrades were Communist terrorists and had a passion for Russia. If they had learned that Russians in St. Petersburg showed a certain attitude against America, Mrs. Rousseff would quickly imitate them.
Mrs. Rousseff, the Russians in St. Petersburg have rejected the pressures of AllOut and US government. How about imitating them?
Mrs. Rousseff, the Russians in St. Petersburg have passed a law banning gay propaganda and parades. How about imitating them?
How about investigating website “PLC 122” for its “imperialistic” connections?

US gay group behind the shutdown of Julio Severo PayPal account wants to defeat Russian law banning homosexual propaganda

US gay group behind the shutdown of Julio Severo PayPal account wants to defeat Russian law banning homosexual propaganda

People around the world are cheering a new law in St. Petersburg, the second largest city in Russia, banning homosexual propaganda.
Yet, AllOut is not cheering. It is calling upon gays and government officials in America, Europe and around the world to defeat the Russian law protecting children from gay indoctrination. The American gay group launched an international campaign this week to exert pressure on Russian lawmakers.
AllOut says, “Over the past few months over 250,000 people have joined All Out in denouncing the bill, and thousands of us have picked up the phone to call our foreign offices, pushing the US, UK, Germany, France, Australia and others to issue official condemnations. We have to keep up the pressure — now, more than ever.”
It also says, “Calls and letters have rolled in from around the world, but it’s not enough.  So with your help, we’re going to hit the Governor of St. Petersburg where it counts — in his wallet.” 
In its international campaign to have my PayPal account closed, AllOut wanted also to hit me in my wallet, hindering my readers and friends from sending me voluntary donations through PayPal.
Even though PayPal has chosen to succumb to their pressure, my readers and friends keep helping, by other ways.
I do not know what St. Petersburg can do to resist such pressure from an American gay group, but there is no doubt that AllOut needs to be hit in its wallet too.
The economic crisis in America could affect AllOut, but then the Obama administration could manage to help them, as its priority is to promote the gay cause, even by threatening to hit Third World nations in their pockets — by denying them aid — if they do not comply with the US-gay agenda.
Hillary Clinton and the US government have openly condemned the conservative law in St. Petersburg. According to LifeSiteNews, “The bill, which prohibits ‘public activities promoting homosexuality,’ is being denounced by homosexualist activist groups as ‘anti-gay’ and it is being vocally opposed by the U.S. State Department.”
The powerful liberal structures in America will only stop their anticonservative actions when deeply hit in their own pockets.
I miss the times of Ronald Reagan, when the American conservatism threatened the Russian communism.
Today, the US cultural decadence threatens the emergent conservatism in Russia and around the world.
