Iran, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Yemen all have death for homosexuality in varying circumstances under penal codes. Pre-invasion Iraq as well. Almost every country in the ME it is against the law with penalties ranging from beatings, stonings, and imprisonment. In Afghanistan, throwing homosexuals off rooftops is standard practice by Taliban, and ISIS to a larger extent around the middle east under Sharia Law.In how many countries have homosexuals been tossed off rooftops and how often has it happened?
I wouldn't matter if he's on the moon.
In how many countries have homosexuals been executed for their sexuality and how often has it happened? Our laws were pretty anti-gay not so long ago but prosecutions were rare.Iran, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Yemen all have death for homosexuality in varying circumstances under penal codes.

You realize we have fans across the globe......... Geez man, give it up. I suspect he's not American either..... But I don't see what difference it makes other than giving his posts context.I still haven't heard whether he is actually based in the United States or not.
They can ping my IP all day, not only am I in the United States but I am in Tennessee. This isn't a public forum, it is a forum for Tennessee sports fans.

Seriously - look it up yourself. It is codified legally in these countries and it does happen. The very fact that it is against the law and one can be executed for it is disgusting.In how many countries have homosexuals been executed for their sexuality and how often has it happened?

How are you being inconvenienced or limited in discussing politics or sports by his presence?Take it from a different perspective, are you alright with allowing our Football forum to be flooded with a bunch of trolls that are Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Vandy fans to the point where we can't talk about college football anymore?
I think there are limitations on who can and cannot post on forums. I would consider it problematic to have a Russian (specifically a Russian working and paid for by their government) post on this forum. It is a manner of Espionage. Russia has been proven, on numerous occasions, of sending paid agitators into forums of other nations to create havoc or push an agenda.

If he's paid anything then it's a horrible ROI..... No need to worry, we'll bleed them dry and laugh at them while doing it.
Seriously man you are into tinfoil territory.
Ras isn't Russian and even if he was I reckon he'd be welcome as a Vol. It's not up to you or me to play moderator. The board is already well moderated.Take it from a different perspective, are you alright with allowing our Football forum to be flooded with a bunch of trolls that are Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Vandy fans to the point where we can't talk about college football anymore?

I follow the news fairly well and I don't recall but a very few cases in the last 10 years or so. I think maybe a couple in Iran. It just seems like something people mention a lot but that seldom happens.Seriously - look it up yourself. It is codified legally in these countries and it does happen.

But let's not forget - "America is the most wicked entity in the world".
Most of the places where this stuff happens the people are "scared straight", or the media is non-existent and or afraid to cover it. It routinely happens in places like Africa and the ME though I admittedly don't have hard figures.I follow the news fairly well and I don't recall but a very few cases in the last 10 years or so.

For reference:Neither of us hate this country…to the contrary, actually.
We just aren’t gullible morons..
The United States is the most wicked entity on the planet right now. They can't even support a toothless UN resolution. What would have been the consequence of the US voting for this? Makes no sense.
No it’s not.Be honest now, it's very rare and when I do refuse an answer it's justified.
