Burn Gay People Alive In Ovens, Russian "Scrubs" Star Says

http://www.buzzfeed.com/maxseddon/burn-gay-people-alive-in-ovens-russian-scrubs-star-says



A leading Russian actor says that he endorses a rerun of the Holocaust for gay people on behalf of his children, the latest outburst marking a rising tide of homophobia in the country.

“I’d burn them all alive in ovens,” Ivan Okhlobystin, the star of a Russian copy of “Scrubs,” told fans in the city of Novosibirsk on Sunday, local website NGS.Novosti reported. “It’s Sodom and Gomorrah, as a religious person I can’t be indifferent to it, it’s a living threat to my children,” Okhlobystin said.

A father of six, Okhlobystin was an Orthodox priest until the church defrocked him in 2010 for pursuing an acting career and briefly ran for president in 2011 on behalf of the Kremlin-controlled pseudo-opposition party Right Cause, which subsequently collapsed. Okhlobystin also said that he beat his children because “kids are wild animals — on some level they don’t understand a damn thing.

“I don’t want my children to think that being a [faggot] is okay,” Okhlobystin said. “It’s queer fascism! If a person can’t choose someone similar from the opposite sex for reproduction, it’s a clear sign of a psychic anomaly, it means they need to be deprived of the vote,” he continued.

If this asshole has six children there is a good chance at least one of them is gay. Where does such hatefulness come from? The church?
