GHENADIY RAIKOV (leader of the People's deputy group):

- Thank God that in Russia the election of a politician who admits his 
homosexuality is impossible - nobody would vote for him. Homosexuality is a 
perversion. Well, anyways, in March we are going to pass a law which will 
criminalize homosexuality. And I can assure you that then no one will dare 
to say that he is gay anymore!
