But -- while obviously I do not endorse such laws -- the difference is you are violating their law at that moment, where you stand by just being you. Once again: I fundamentally disagree with such laws but the situation is different.
- Godel_unicode 8y agoNot really. They arrest you, when you arrive in their country, for being gay. It's not like they're extraditing people from other countries for being gay.
- chx 8y agoThat's exactly what I said: according to their laws you being gay is a crime -- a crime committed at the time when you are in the country by simply being you. It has nothing to do with Hutchins' arrest which was for a crime committed in the past while being elsewhere.
- MRD85 8y agoIf their law makes it illegal to have same-sex sex and they arrest you based on previous evidence of being gay then you're arrested for prior acts.
