    Tourists are ALREADY being arrested for "gay propaganda." This is unacceptable and Russia needs to be held to account.

    Actually, I kind of like Aldrick's idea mentioned in the thread where Russia passed the anti-gay law.

    You know, the one where EVERYONE goes over to Russia and challenges the police.

    I'm more in favor of preventative sanctions.

    That's fine. I'm just saying I'm not signing it because I find Aldrick's idea to be better.

    Alternatively, people could sign this and, if it fails, go over to Russia and do whatever Aldrick suggested.

    That article says "living their dreams" Thats all well and true for some atheletes i suppose. I personally would not want to go if i was forced to censor my own identity... Opinions will differ ofc, or I could be like that one guy on the news and just be as gay as possible there to see how things go out... cant have athletes getting arrested now can we :O? haha xD

    Aldrick's idea still sounds amazing to me.

    I like the article and will not sign it after all. But still same time...something must be done to at least protect LGBT athletes as well as spectators too.
