Bullying...NOT OK



Unidentified people beat Svyatoslav Sheremet (on ground), head of the Gay Forum of Ukraine public organization, in Kiev, May 20. Sheremet was attacked after meeting with members of the media to inform them that a scheduled gay parade was canceled. The attackers ran off when they realised members of the media were documenting the attack.

That leap into the air to come down on the guy was a life threatening act. What do they always say the person dies or is permanently disabled?

'Oh, I'm sorry, but I didn't mean to kill/cripple him.'


Sure you didn't, little monkey. Just a game, like any other one. Would you like to play the part of the guy you just killed/crippled? Hey, it'd be fun, let's try it!
