Seven LGBT Rights Activists Protest In Russia Without Getting Arrested

And they look pretty lonely.

Police in Moscow and St. Petersburg detained a total of 14 LGBT rights activists as the Olympic Games formally opened on Friday. But four protestors took to the streets of the southern city of Tolyatti and three others protested in the neighboring city of Samara without attracting the attention of police.

Tolyatti

The poster, a play on a song by the Russian pop duo T.a.T.u, who performed at the Olympic opening ceremony, says: “They're not gonna get us, they've already driven us into a corner.”

This poster says “Feast in the time of the plague,” a saying that basically means people don't care about the evil going on around them. (Perhaps because they'd rather be shopping.)

T-Pain: Rappers Won’t Work With Frank Ocean Because He’s Gay

“If you ain’t gay, then gay things shouldn’t bother you,” he said.

In an interview with DJ Vlad, T-Pain claimed that he knew of certain rappers who refused to work with Frank Ocean because of Ocean's sexuality.

“I think the radio is getting more gay-friendly,” he said. “I don't think urban music is getting more gay-friendly because if that was the case, Frank Ocean would be on a lot more songs. I know n***as that will not do a song with Frank Ocean just because he gay, but they need him on the fucking song and that's so terrible to me, man.”

T-Pain also said he feels the use of “no homo” jokes are “unnecessary” and complained about people being afraid to approach him because his assistant is an out gay man.

“You ain't even got bitches,” he said. “Why you think this gay dude is going to like you? Bitches don't even like you. You can't think you're a gift from god to gay men, that's stupid.”

DJ Vlad has raised the homophobia in hip-hop question before, speaking to Jamaican rapper Lord Jamar last year.

He accused Macklemore of pushing a “gay agenda.”
