If you're determined that citing Chechnya is a faux pas on my part, then I'll just choose all the fundamentalist Christian, former colonial African countries that are busying themselves bringing in laws against homosexuality -- most notably Nigeria, where a conviction for gay sex can carry the death penalty, and Uganda, where it's "only" life imprisonment.
Describing these countries as "former colonial" is no accident, either. There's a link between these countries' attitudes to homosexuality and our own from years past. We moved past that attitude, in law at least, but it lingers on there -- driven and encouraged by fundamentalist Christian preachers from the US.
But I wasn't trying to make a religious point anyway, as I said. I was trying to make the point that not every persecution of homosexuality receives the same attention, but it's a mistake to assume that this is anything to do with gay rights campaigners turning a blind eye to one religion's sins. The community has been in uproar about what's going on (allegedly) in Chechnya, and contrary to TTT's post, that hasn't been tempered one bit by the local religion.
