[quote]A 14-year-old was hanged from a tree in Isfahan, Iran, according to unconfirmed reports. Akbar Zargarzadeh, the young teen, had been at an Islamic boys’ camp when the cleric accused him of being gay. The mullah told the other boys that the young teen was ‘deserving of death’.[/quote] [url]http://www.gaystarnews.com/article/gay-teen-14-hanged-from-tree-in-iran/[/url]
what the christ was that like seriously how dedicated to an authority figure do you need to be to hang the kid uuuugh although [QUOTE]GSN was unable to corroborate or verify the report. We were unable to find a press account of what happened in the Farsi press. And we should note Iranian LGBTI networks have not confirmed the stor[/QUOTE]
When you're raised with constantly being told 'gays are bad and evil and wrong', this messed up shit happens.
Article says that they're still looking for local sources to corroborate the info. Regardless, rest in peace :(
Kids are demons.
Holy shit, I think not even the most anti-gay guys in Russia would fucking hang someone for their sexuality. Like this just goes on a whole other level

Lynching somebody because you don't like them? That's like 'skull and crossbones logo' levels of "Do you think we might be the bad guys?".
[QUOTE=Shiftyze;48246352]Kids are demons.[/QUOTE] Its more of the cleric is a demon, and the kids are just unknowing pawns to him.
[QUOTE=Swineflu;48246406]Holy shit, I think not even the most anti-gay guys in Russia would fucking hang someone for their sexuality. Like this just goes on a whole other level[/QUOTE] No, but they would beat them to death. People get killed for being gay there as well.

[QUOTE=Swineflu;48246406]Holy shit, I think not even the most anti-gay guys in Russia would fucking hang someone for their sexuality. Like this just goes on a whole other level[/QUOTE] There's been plenty of cases of kids in Russia being brutally murdered by other kids just because they think they are gay. Including one that had stuff inserted in his anus.
Isn't homosexuality really common in Islamic youth, though? I've read that, because the women are kept separate in their society, a lot of teenage boys have sex with others. Then again, I read that on Vice... So...
I thought Iran didn't have any gay people.
Saudi Arabia is just as bad but we love that oil.

[QUOTE=Explosions;48246925]I thought Iran didn't have any gay people.[/QUOTE] Keep in mind that it's possible to be secretly gay
The title of this thread is an insult to the person who was murdered. It simply legitimises the preachers accusation that he was gay, which was not proven in a court or any sort of judicial process. The title is without due process, in my opinion.
[QUOTE=Swineflu;48246406]Holy shit, I think not even the most anti-gay guys in Russia would fucking hang someone for their sexuality.

But still there's a relatively big LGBT movement in Russia as well ofc, so not like Iran or some shit.

How barbaric. Must be tough living in that kind of culture.
[QUOTE=Shiftyze;48246352]Kids are demons.[/QUOTE] Yeah they are death to all kids man!
Reminds me of Lord of the Flies.

Though, its probably something else.
[QUOTE=Swineflu;48246406]Holy shit, I think not even the most anti-gay guys in Russia would fucking hang someone for their sexuality. Like this just goes on a whole other level[/QUOTE] Its the law in Iran even, 74 lashes if you're under 14, or death if you're above.
Being gay isn't illegal in Iran, sodomy is. And the charge is very hard to prove, you need 4 witnesses to the act who also have to explain why they weren't looking away at the time. If this cleric hung this boy from a tree, as these "unconfirmed reports" say, he'll be hung for murder. Christ guys, we're not that barbaric. Only a little.
the four witnesses thing seems to backfire alot though

[QUOTE=Ax3l;48246868]Including one that had stuff inserted in his anus.[/QUOTE] "I think this kid is gay imma but something up his butt lol" What kind of fucking logic is that?
[QUOTE=Bumrang;48250295]i dunno having a law where there is any punishment for being gay is already very barbaric[/QUOTE] Even so, we can't change the law, we tried in 2009 and were shot back into repression. Yes, every so often unfortunately a gay is hanged in Iran, but you guys have a systematic torture program. Glass houses, throwing stones, etc.
