LATVIAN ANTI-GAY MOVEMENT SPILLS OVER TO U.S.

Many were Sacramento gay activists who didn't know Sgh personally, but who saw his ath as the tragic but evable rult of what they scribe as the growg threat of large numbers of Slavic anti-gay extremists, most of them first- or send-generatn immigrants om Rsia, the Ukrae and other untri of the former Soviet Unn, their cy and others the wtern Uned Stat. In recent months, as energetic Rsian-speakg "Rsian Baptists" and Pentestals the stat have anized to brg thoands to anti-gay protts, gay rights activists Sacramento have picketed Slavic anti-gay church, requted more police patrols gay neighborhoods and distributed rmatn rds warng gays and lbians about the hostile Slavic evangelils who they say have roughed up participants at gay pri events. "After a uple years of fundamentalist and Slavic Christian vilent anti-gay protts at almost every Sacramento gay event the regn, " said lol gay rights activist Michael Gorman, "what the gay muny has feared for some time has fally happened.

Vlad Kak, the host of a Rsian-language anti-gay rad show Sacramento and the publisher of a Rsian-language newspaper Seattle, told The Seattle Tim January that God has "ma an jectn" of high numbers of anti-gay Slavic evangelils to tradnally liberal Wt Coast ci. Branch of the Watchmen movement are jt as c and even more physilly abive than Fred Phelps' famo Wtboro Baptist Church, and they're rooted gay-bashg theology that's even more hardre than the late Jerry Falwell's. Slavic anti-gay talk rad hosts and fundamentalist preachers routely liver hateful screeds on the airwav and om the pulp their native tongue that, were they livered English, would be a source of natnwi ntroversy.

HOW DID A GAY SCIENTIST OF JEWISH DCENT THRIVE UNR THE NAZIS?

Dennis Mangers, a gay former California state senator who now lobbi for the ble dtry, said that when he met a proment lear of Sacramento's Slavic muny at a 2006 weekend renciliatn retreat, the Slavic lear told him: "You have to unrstand, we equate homosexuals wh thiev, adulterers and murrers. It was the largt anti-gay prott to take place Oregon's sleepy pal cy sce 1992, when the anti-gay Oregon Cizens Alliance (OCA) phed a ballot iative that me wh a few percentage pots of rewordg the state nstutn to clare gay people "abnormal, wrong, unnatural and perverse" and requirg the state to fire all openly gay or lbian public school teachers. Lively also is the former director of the California chapter of the anti-gay Amerin Fay Associatn and the founr of both Defend the Fay Mistri and the Pro-Fay Law Center, which claims to be the untry's "only legal anizatn voted exclively to opposg the homosexual polil agenda.

The ternatnal nature of the anti-gay movement was seen at the 2006 nference of the so-lled Watchmen on the Walls the alliance between Amerin gay-bashers Kenh Hutcherson, Stt Lively, and Latvian megachurch preacher Alexey Ledyaev. "For every motherly, feme mistry of the church such as a Crisis Pregnancy Center or ex-gay support group we need a battle-harned, take--to-the-enemy mascule mistry like [the anti-abortn group] Operatn Rcue. Lively intifi "the enemy" as not only homosexuals, but also what he terms "homosexualists, " a tegory that clus anyone, regardls of sexual orientatn, who "actively promot homosexualy as morally and socially equivalent to heterosexualy as a basis for social policy.

(Lively's most recent book, The Poisoned Stream, siarly tails "a dark and powerful homosexual prence" through "the Spanish Inquisn, the French 'Reign of Terror, ' the era of South Ain apartheid, and the two centuri of Amerin Slavery. The Pk Swastika — whose ver has a swastika place of the "x" "homosexualy" the book's subtle — has been roundly discreded by legimate historians and was thoroughly bunked a 2005 Intelligence Report article.

Pastor Ledyaev's 2002 book, New World Orr, lls for evangelil Christians around the world to fluence the wealthy and powerful their home untri to implement biblil law orr to stave off a supposed alliance of gays and Mlims hell-bent on stroyg Christiany.

By the end of the year, Hutcherson, Ledyaev and Lively had teamed up wh Vlad Kak, the edor of The Speaker, to form an ternatnal alliance to oppose what Hutcherson characteriz as "the homosexual movement sayg they're a mory and that they need their equal rights. They gathered to strategize agast same-sex marriage and build a polil anizatn to fight "gay-straight allianc" public schools and ph for the boytt of textbooks that mentn homosexualy any ntext other than total nmnatn.
