From the Advocate:
Fifty members of Congress from both parties joined in sending a letter to Russian president Vladimir Putin on Friday, urging him to condemn the antigay violence that occurred during pride celebrations in Moscow in May. The letter (reproduced below) accuses Yuri Luzhkov, the mayor of Moscow, of encouraging the violence by refusing to issue a parade permit and by announcing that the city’s law enforcement forces would be unable to protect the marchers.
Gay Massachusetts congressman Barney Frank was the driving force behind the letter, and he was joined by fellow out representatives Tammy Baldwin and Jim Kolbe as well as 47 others.
The 47 others included Raul Grijalva. The letter is reprinted at the website…
Yup, figures, Trent Franks, sure missed this one. Of course, he leads and is endorsed by gay hate groups, but was just curious. Would have been there if a buck was involved, thats for sure.
