Facebook Gay Marriage Icons Provoke Russian Ban Campaign
"Flirting with sodomites": First anti-gay propaganda laws, now freedom of speech bans: Several religious groups in Russia have contacted Facebook's Russian headquarters with an ultimatum to remove the new "gay marriage icons" because they promoted an atmosphere of "flirting with sodomites." When Facebook refused their request, representatives of the Muslim, Catholic and Jewish faiths collected over 34,000 signatures to ban Facebook altogether.
