Don't individual nations have the right to create their own laws?
The author mentions the European Union's pressure tactics on the UK, yet seems to *endorse* this, not condemn it.

If Russia, UK or Australia can't have differing laws, we may as well not have our own legislators.
Does the author support a global government imposing uniform laws, regardless of local opinion?

The Russian law about "propaganda to minors" sounds perfectly reasonable to me (and I'm gay).

To be successful, the prosecutor would have to *prove* the intent of the accused was targeting minors!
Not consenting adults, minors.

And it's not limited to "gay" stuff. It says "non-traditional".
That also includes bestiality, necrophilia, BDSM, group sex/orgies.
Would you really want children reading "This Little Piggy Got Whipped?"
What's wrong with this law?

Did you get your titles confused, Shockadelic?

"This Little Piggy Got Whipped?" was a Victorian cautionary tale about child chastisement...

You meant "This Little Piggy got Porked".

I would suggest you Google "Gay bashing in Russia", which have disturbing graphic images, of what is happening today to GLBTI people in Russia.

Kipp - I don't have to Google it to know there are violent mongrels in Russia.

What about Australia people being violently assaulted for not giving a stranger a cigarette when they ask for one, people being killed by a mongrel king hitting them for no reason, people assaulting 94 yo pensions there are a lot more examples you can Google them.

Every country has undesirable people.

Though not in the numbers they have in Russia, that have free rein to brutalise and murder gay people; which has come about because of this law.
