Russia's lower house of parliament passed a discriminatory law that bans Russians from promoting "LGBT propaganda" in the third reading on Thursday.
The move by Russia's State Duma, the lower house of parliament, expands a 2013 law that banned people from discussing gay relationships and issues with children to apply to people of all ages.
The bill needs to be reviewed by Russia's upper house of parliament and signed by President Vladimir Putin before becoming law.
Russia to fine people if they promote LGBT relationships Russian lawmakers agreed all individuals could be fined up to 400,000 rubles ($6,600, €6,346) and legal entities up to 5 million rubles ($82,100, €79,985) if they "promoted or praised" LGBT relationships.
Foreigners can be arrested for up to 15 days or deported, according to the bill.
Any event or act regarded as an attempt to promote LGBTQ issues — including in films, books or advertising — could incur a fine, according to the bill.

Common sense from some part of the world.
A law like this pretty clearly violates the first amendment. Do you believe the insistence on free speech by the founding fathers was a mistake?
I have no problem with this.
Sure bombing the Ukraine is bad but being mean to homos!! THIS IS TOO FAR!
What 1st Amendment?
Whose 1st Amendment?
Wonder how The Founding Fathers would have reacted to pro-gay material 200 years ago
First, the gay community just wanted to exist. Then it wanted to be in the open. Then it wanted marriage. Then it wants special protection and benefits from government. NOW IT WANTS OUR CHILDREN.
Maybe Russia seen what’s up
Actually the founders had no way of knowing how decadent the society would become. The first amendment as it was drawn up was focused on political speech. The courts have interpreted it in a more expansively way.
Highly doubt Adams and others would sanction the LGBTQ agenda.
The moral and religious fiber of present day Russia puts the west to shame.
That includes Russia’s response to NATO’s encroachment in Ukraine and the desire to put deadly force on the doorstep of Moscow........
I guess you plan on trolling every one of these threads with your BS. The globohomo march is right up your alley.

And this is why there is a Ukraine civil war...
...the globalists are pressuring Russia, the last Christian nation, to get with there perverted steps.
That’s the question.
Should the Founders have included an exception in the First Amendment for immoral speech.
Would you support a constitutional amendment to ban immoral speech in America? Would you trust the federal government to enforce that ban?
Russia is one of the most atheistic nations in the world.
You do know China has similar laws.
These countries pass these laws not because they are pious, but because the are totalitarian an demand the government control all aspects of their subjects lives.
Right, pointing out how its ALL russian showmanship, that the reality is they allow plenty of gay bars and clubs in Moscow to operate with impunity is somehow being opposed to the legislation. Okay
