Its not illegal to be gay in Russia , there are gays in Russia , however promoting gay on TV or other media is strictly forbidden . As for Arabic countries , it is much worse than in Russia . In Saudi Arabia for example you will get beheaded or stoned to death if you are found to be gay . <| sep |> Exactly . I ' d much rather we restrict Bullshit wannabe terrorist content , if only to diffuse their power to provoke . I ' m sure there ' s a spike of repressed hate mongers who view recent political activity south of us as a potential opportunity to reveal and connect with like minded dipshits , and the less we support that crap the better . Invisible , attempted evil should get no play , and while I like to kick at the darkness to reveal daylight like any good Canadian , I think fear mongering should be laughed at . Other ills should be stamped on . If you can buy fear at Canadian Tire and get airplay , we ' ve gone to sleep .
