Moskau lädt zum munteren Gesangswettbewerb. Da dürfen ein paar Homosexuelle, die sich diskriminiert fühlen, das schöne Bild einfach nicht stören, Rußland ist schließlich eine Demokratie, also muß eine verschwindend kleine Minderheit der Mehrheit ihren Spaß lassen:
„Moscow police violently dispersed a gay pride rally Saturday that was banned by city authorities, drawing attention to Russia’s record on gay rights as it prepares to host a major international pop music competition.
About 30 activists gathered near a university in southwestern Moscow to protest discrimination against gays and lesbians in Russia. [..]
After the demonstration, riot police detained other gay activists who appeared after the protest and were speaking with the media. As they hauled away Ksenia Prilebskaya, police ripped off her shirt and bra and roughly pushed her into a police bus.
City authorities had barred Saturday’s rally saying it was morally wrong. Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov has described homosexuality as ’satanic.'“
