LAWLS if you have a gay child, and are forbidden to talk about it in public.

"Sir, why is your son kissing and holding hands with my son in recess. "
"I can't talk about it!".
These retards didn't think it through.

Associated Press is carrying it, so probably legit.

So...Europe.  Trying to be like us, or something?

Sounds like this would make any sort of anti-homosexual propaganda also illegal, since it has to acknowledge the existence of gays.

Russia's not allowed to be part of Europe.

We already have Italy.

Anyway, this is likely part of a quid quo pro between an increasingly threatened Putin and the Orthodox Church.  Putin is also trying to undertake an anticorruption drive which is promising to be very unpopular at the moment, and this might be just the social issue to try and distract people from attacks against him.

Russia unfortunately has quite a history of hostility to homophobia, despite, y'know, Communism and such.
