Fight LGBTs Like Russia Fought The Nazis, U.S. Anti-Gay Activist Tells Putin

In an open letter to the Russian president, activist Scott Lively tells Vladimir Putin his fight against the “homosexualist movement” has just begun.

American anti-gay activist Scott Lively, who faces charges of hate crimes for his work on Uganda’s “Kill the Gays” bill, has told Vladimir Putin that Russia’s “gay propaganda” bill does not go far enough in addressing “the problem” of LGBTs.

In an open letter sent August 30, Lively praised the Russian president for setting “an example of moral leadership that has shamed the governments of Western Europe and North America” with his campaign against LGBT people, but said “the battle to protect your society from homosexualization has only just begun.”

Hates Putin with a purple passion and if they had their way he would of been gone a long time ago.

And had the "looney left" had their way we would have had equal rights for african americans, american indians, hispanics, all races really, women, and LGBT individuals nearly a 100 years ago.

Looney left is more like the prophetic left in that they have been right about everything single issue since this country began.
