Tiger and goat become friends at Russian zoo - accused of "gay propaganda"


More insanity from the christians....... If you want to talk about a so called slippery slope then this is it.

So, a tiger and a goat become friends at a safari park in Russia. Enter crazed christian ideologue zealots on the lookout for anything remotely gay, be it human or animal. They accuse the pair (the tiger and goat are both male) of promoting being gay and therefore guilty of "gay propaganda".
Novosibirsk lawyer Alexei Krestyanov complained to the prosecutor general last month that information about the animals living together could harm children by provoking “interest in non-traditional sexual relations”. 

“I think the positive coverage of this topic is nothing less than interference in the personal lives of minors, which is what hidden propaganda is, and public, active imposition of homosexuality,” Krestyanov wrote. 

The prosecutor’s office in the Primorsky region, which borders China and North Korea, has said it has begun checking Krestyanov’s allegations. 

The two animals became minor national celebrities in November when Timur the goat, who was meant to be a live snack for Amur the Siberian tiger, instead took over the enclosure at a safari park near Vladivostok, forcing the tiger to sleep on the roof of his own lean-to. The media was soon full of footage of the two playing together, and Timur’s fans have even begun a campaign to elect him to parliament, arguing that he would be braver and more honest than current MPs.

Now tell me, how does this make more sense that being gay? Or simply having a friend? Are close male friends in Russia now to be wary of appearing too close? Where does this slippery slope end then?
