Fighters from Lady Gaga
At first, the famous St. Petersburg deputy Vitaliy Milonov tried to initiate it, having extensive experience in struggle with another American singer Madonna, however, nothing came of it. But the activist of the "Trade Union of Russian Citizens" Nadezhda Petrova went to the concert of Lady Gaga with a 13-year-old daughter, stocked up with video recordings and received a certificate from Rospotrebnadzor experts that this show is harmful to children under 18 years of age. The further was the work of technology - the prosecutor became the public prosecutor. On May 28, the peace judge Irina Belova recognized the “planet Plus” to the guilty under the article “violation of the legislation of the Russian Federation on the protection of children from information causing harm to their health and (or) development”. The organizers appealed to the Moscow District Court, disagreing with the charge and a fine of 20 thousand rubles. In the words of the press secretary of the "trade union of Russian citizens" Daria Dedova, regrets that the fine is so small, on the other hand, she says that she understands why they do not want to pay: it is not about money, but in reputation. Daria Dedova hopes that the court ruling will be a lesson not only “Planet Plus”, but also to other organizations releasing films, performances producing concerts for children - so that they do not see ordinary consumers in children, but think about possible harm that is so easy to cause them with a non -consolidated psyche.
Next to the activists of the "trade union of Russian citizens" under the Russian flags were activists of the "people's cathedral", the leader of this movement believes that we must fight the corruption of the West, the corruption of children and the non -compliance of Russian laws. Moreover, the “process of Lady Gaga” is not the limit for him: he admitted that he is preparing a new process-by recognition illegal and offensive by the word “gay”, and with it the rainbow flag is a symbol of the LGBT community.
In court it was crowded from the cameras, more journalists came than participants in the process, but the meeting was eventually postponed: it turns out that the judge did not receive either the parties to the defendants, or documents of the plaintiffs: in the bureaucratic machine, something was clearly overwhelmed by something.
“It was not only in her, but in the heads,” said human rights activist Yuri Vdovin. In his opinion, “the insanity will still be somewhat strong, and then it will inevitably come to naught, since the authorities that support him live somewhere in the middle of the twentieth century, or even the XIX, and their ideas are not in demand by modern society. Therefore, they pull this society back.”
The next meeting in the Lady Gaga case is scheduled for August 29.
