Babushkas and Skinheads Protest Gay Club Party

protest-main.jpg

Moscow -- About 70 babushkas (old Russian ladies) and young nationalists gathered May 1 to protest a party at the gay club "Three Monkeys". Yesterday the same kind of protest took place in front of the club "Renaissance". Today the protestors were more aggressive; the babushkas were waving Orthodox icons, and the nationalists were yelling out fascist slogans. Special police units surrounded the protestors expecting violence through the night.

Enjoy the pictures from this amazing event here at RussiaBlog!

oddly, a bunch of old women and skinheads sounds like a gay club party...art imitating life imitating art...?

...or were they protesting because they couldn't afford to get in???

I wonder what those in the club thought about the special police sent to protect them... and what the special police though about those they were sent to protect....

"Babushka" is a dear kind, older woman who loves her grandchildren. Even if they happen to be gay

Now, the women described in the article above are "Staruhas" - miserable, 'dremuchie'( another good word) igorant hags.

All this is beyond sad.
