Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov said Monday he would never allow a gay parade to take place in Moscow despite pressure from the West, Russia’s RIA-Novosti news agency reports.

“Last year, Moscow came under unprecedented pressure to sanction the gay parade, which can be described in no other way than as Satanic,” Luzhkov said at the 15th Christmas educational readings in the Kremlin Palace.

although he is beaten in the category of 'politician with the balls of steel' by the italian politicanti Roberto Calderoli, who gave shirts with the face of the prophet muhammad on them to his fellow politicians in parliament, to protest radical islam growing in Italy. That man is brave, risking his life for freedom

Reforms Minister Roberto Calderoli denied that the T-shirts are meant to provoke, but said there is no point in promoting dialogue with Muslim extremists.

"I have had T-shirts made with the cartoons that have upset Islam and I shall start wearing them today," Calderoli told Italian newspapers.

"It is time to put an end to this tale that we need dialogue with these people," he added.

When you look abroad you realize that our politicians in america are controlled by polls. Where is the passion and bravery some of these foreign politicians show? american politicians are more like robots. There is not 1 american politicians with the ballz to do what Calderoli did, or stand up for what is right even when under pressure from the west like Luzhkov.

I think there's a big difference between articles that expose bigotry and articles that expound on bigotry.

I'm not sure that the Italian is a bigot, but I think he is kinda bullheaded:

Yep, what this country needs is more politicians willing to prevent peaceful gatherings of citizens for no reason other than personal bias. All these American politicians listen to is polls and the Constitution. Blah blah blah polls blah blah blah Constitution. GMAMFB.
