A Russian lawmaker known for his radical rhetoric on the topic of equal rights for the LGBT community recently raised eyebrows in a new interview where he insisted that children would be better of in an orphanage than with a gay parent.

Alexei Zhuravlev, deputy of the Russian Duma, is the proponent of a new bill that would disqualify gay parents from maintaining custody of their children.

In a new interview, in which he compared Europe to Sodom and Gomorrah, Zhuravlev says that a single mother who’s discovered to be gay should have her children taken away from her because they’d be better off in an orphanage:

Zhuravlev: Of course she should definitely be deprived of her rights to the child. H*mos*xuals must not raise children. They corrupt them. They do them much more harm than if the child were in an orphanage.

I am deeply convinced of this.

This guy sounds like a certified nutcase.
