Ivan Okhlobystin, a Russian TV star, who unsuccessfully ran for President two years ago, has reportedly told a packed audience in Novosibirsk that he would like to personally put all living gay people in a furnace.
“I myself would shove all live gays into [a] furnace,” Ivan Okhlobystin reportedly told his audience in Novosibirsk. “This is Sodom and Gomorrah, I as a believer in God can not treat this indifferently, this is a live threat to my kids!”
“I do not want my kids to think that faggots are normal.”
Okhlobystin (pictured centre) is the star of a popular Russian sitcom that has been described as being similar to the US show ‘Scrubs’. During his talk Okhlobystin described gay people as being mentally abnormal and argued that they should not be allowed to vote.
Earlier this year Russia introduced laws which prohibit the promotion of ‘non-traditional’ relationships to people under 18 years of age. Since their introduction there have been growing repoerts of violence towards LGBT people in the country.
