I know the headline isn't so fantastic but here goes.
This is a rough translation of one piece of news I just read.
''The decision will be weakening the status of gays and lesbians in Russia.
According to Russian media the German band Rammstein, who just throwed a concert in Russia, may get fines. Some policymakers said that ''direct and rough pornography'' could be seen on stage.
The law forbiddens telling anything of homosexuality to people under the age of 18, and that can be seen in many ways. Men- and womencouples can be fined for example of showing their love in public.
The governor of St. Petersburg, Georgi Poltavtshenko, has been supporting the law. The opposers of sexual minorities hope that also the duma would soon start taking care of the issue and that the law would come into effect in whole Russia.
Homosexuality was a crime in Russia until the year 1993.''

Sorry for the bad translation!
