Russian Government says no to Brokeback Mountain
...Now that should surprise no one in a country where the government maintains a stranglehold on the media.
I found humor, however, at the pro-communist comments at FreeRepublic as they cheered a large central government that censors what and when the public can view.

I know how homophobic they are over there, but I've never seen such commie back-slapping from the "premier conservative website".

I believe they really do see a dictatorship as an acceptable way of life:

Ronald Reagan must be turning in his grave at this change in his most loyal base.

Put them in prison. That will keep them from having gay sex.

Commies know gay stuff is wrong, look at the commie goals of the 60's they were and are still trying to to use on America, they list "making gay seem normal and healthy" as one of their goals to destroy America.

Mabye somebody can explain this:
Liberals hate Christians because they hate Gays.

Liberals Love Muslims

Muslims say:The cleric said the Koran taught that homosexuals should be killed because their lifestyle spells the extinction of the human race and said that gays had no human rights.

This makes no sense to me!

Wow! Incredible that the U.S. is morally bankrupt compared to Russia in this regard. I wished half that many Americans believed the same way. That would be enough to get the garbage off our televisions and movie screens.

And, *ahem*, for those who don't want to visit there....DON'T POST on this thread saying so. Personally, I like to laugh at the nutjobs. In extreme circumstances you can always use the hide button.
