All good points, a true human rights violation. 

But the selective outrage and concern is yet another example of MSM and general Western hypocrisy. 
How are gays treated in Saudi Arabia compared to Russia? Compared to Qatar? Compared to the UAE? Afghanistan? 

Gays are executed in Saudi Arabia, but that is not a concern for the MSM or the writer of this article ..... politically incorrect I guess. No problem with the general analysis and criticism, but the very selective outrage takes away any moral high ground. As long as you are an ally (well pretend ally in the case of Saudi and others in the region), silence and little concern.
