LGBT Pride Parade in the Ukraine
mashable.com ^ | June 5, 2015

The Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko Friday voiced support for LGBT rights, saying he believed an 'Equality March' planned for Saturday in Kiev should take place as planned.

"I don't see any reason to impede this march because it's a constitutional right of every citizen of the Ukraine," he said.

No president of the Ukraine — a post-Soviet state of 40 million conservative Orthodox Christians — has ever voiced support of the country's LGBT communitby.

In neighboring Russia, laws banning gay propaganda have been passed and there have been cases of gays being brutally attacked.

This is the price you pay for siding with the USA.

Meaning that countries should side against the USA? What a patriot.

I don’t imagine Vlad will be quite so understanding.

But what about them 'evil roo-skies' we keep hearing about?

When the Russians are right on an important issue like this and the US is dead wrong.., and we wonder why so many people no longer give a crap!

So does being a 'patriot' mean 'taking one for the team'?

Then the question becomes what and where!?!

This is the price you pay for siding with the USA.

When small states align with, and throw their lot in with the large powers, such as USA and EU, you have to play to their ideology as well

In the 50's and 60's, our allies had to talk about democracy, free-markets, anti-communism. Now under Obama, no one in Washington cares about those things. We are making friends with Iran, Cuba, the Muslim Brotherhood. The new ideology is post modern - to show yourself as a friend of the West, you talk about immigration, assimilation, and gay rights.

Solution: Try telling the US to bend over and get F-ed on this issue!

Obama is a far bigger threat to America and the world than Vladimir Putin is.

Name me one other issue russians are on the right side of.
Democracy? Freedom? Individual Rights? Property Rights? Freedom of the Press? Freedom of Religion?
Muslim countries also ban gays. Should they be praised?

No, I don’t like sodomy. There are better ways to deal with it than suggesting that countries should align against the United States. Dontcha think?

It is unfortunate for Ukraine that the price they have to pay for the support of the US (Obama Administration) is to embrace Homosexuality

I don`t believe in Democracy, the USA was once a REPUBLIC.

Personal freedom, individual and property rights? With asset forfeitures, the NSA domestic spying, homeland security check points, operation Jade Helm, and the great DC uni-party collusion scam, we can see where that`s rapidly going in this once great REPUBLIC.

As for freedom of the press, do you mean the gaggle of progressive enablers known as the MSM?

And that very same gay mafia is rapidly taking care of any freedom of religion, so what`s your point?

And before you try the old ‘you don`t like it, get out’ crap, I am not going anywhere, try making me!

You can live in your fantasy bubble, but at least I won`t ‘go along to get along, this once great REPUBLIC is all but dead, killed by traitors known as the Democratic and Republican Parties.
