How can you justify this? Seriously?
It's oppression, discrimination and censorship at it's finest. You may as well pass laws ensuring gays sit at the back of the bus. Out of sight and out of mind.
Stop making excuses. Stop making out like this intolerant society is so much better for gays than other intolerant societies.
Firstly, I'm not justyfing anything, I'm just saying I don't understand the relationship between a country's politics and their capacity to host a sports even in the future with all the requirements Secondly, it is better to pay a fine than going to jail or facing the death penalty, anyone will understand that. And thirdly, between keeping my mouth shut and facing a 50000 fine, I'd prefer keeping my mouth shut in public, considering 80% of the population would be hostile to me, it's a reasonable and rational cost of opportunity, not to mention I could lose my life.

late edit: I would propose being as homosexual as possible in public - to oppose the tyranny of the masses, btw
So you propose putting a minority in risk of death against 80% of the Russian population? So proposing something that can get them killed by anti-gay extremists is reasonable? I don't think so. My proposal is to protest against it peacefully and not by forcibly breaking the law, I don't think Russians would have a problem arresting all gay people.. And then when? Who'd fight for gay rights?

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
