Saudi Men Arrested And Sentenced For Posting Gay Video On Youtube!!

Filed under: Icky Icky Poo > Sad Sad > YouTube

For as idiotic and bigoted as the USA can be sometimes, we certainly are grateful we don't live in Saudi Arabia!!

An unidentified 27 year old Saudi man posted THIS silly homolicious little video on youtube, and because of it, has been arrested!!

WTF??

On the charges of being gay, he has been sentenced to 1,000 lashes, a year in jail, and a fine of $1,330.

The man who filmed the clip has also been arrested, but his punishment has not been revealed.

This seriously makes us ill to even think about.

Our thoughts and best wishes are with these men.

      Oh, the "religious right" in America must be positively green with envy! If only THEY could deal with gays in that manner they certainly would.



    2. 2

      WEIRD!



    3. 3

      after seeing that 1000 lashes is not enough good luck in jail buddy.

    5. 5

      what the hell was that all about?



    6. 6

      Im glad I dont have to live in the stoneage, but it is tragic to see how brutal life is for far to many people.

      So I guess not being able to get married doesn't seem so bad now, huh. At least the gays in the US are still free to be gay. Think about that, Perez.



    8. 8

      he's a weirdo but definitely doesn't deserve those punishments.



    9. 9

      looks like Marilin Manson with out make up , hehehehehehhehe



    10. 10

      And this ladies and gentlemen, is why I left Saudi Arabia…



    11. 11

      You have no idea how good you have it here in the United States and yet you bitch and bitch that you don't have any rights and just keep bitching for more. Be thankful you live here. But of course if you don't like it here you can always move to a mid eastern country. I am sure they will welcome you with open arms.



    12. 12

      Perez, remember this: for as much as you complain about gay issues here in the US, be thankful you live in a free country with freedom of speech. Remember that when you are posting your political bias views for anyone who does not agree with your leftist agenda.

      P.S. Muslim countries have never accepted the gay culture and never will. I do agree that from a western culture perspective, it is heineous to treat anyone that way. However, this is the way their culture and religion works.

      Unbelieveable! there are millions of video's like this floating around in Canada and the US…. and nobody even cares about them! I also hated that story abouthte girl who couldn't go to prom because in their rules they said you had to bring a partner of opposite sex?!?! I'm sooo glad I live in Canada! We had people in drag, same sex couples and TONS of singles at our Prom and that was 10 years ago!! These stories are INSANE to me, can't believe we can all live so differently on one simple subject, EQUALITY!



    14. 14

      I hate the homophobic part, but I can't blame them for arresting him after this video. It's horrible. Same treatment for Jersey Shore!



    15. 15

      Re: bgbreakdown – I'm part of this "religious right" you so patronizingly talk about. While I do not condone or agree with the homosexual lifestyle, I would never support punishing people for their choice in lifestyle. I'm not God after all and only He can judge. How about you open up your mind a little bit and learn a thing or two about tolerance? I can have my opinion and so can you and so can homosexuals.

      Oh Please douche-bag, thats like saying "Oh gee, hitler killed millions and Jeffrey Dahmer only killed a few…so I guess Jeffrey Dahmer isn't so bad. Just because something is worse, don't make something else perfect you bigoted dumb-ass.



    17. 17

      I hate to say this but given how they treat people whom they've caught in the act of homosexuality…he's getting off light.

      Poor guy :( His life is ruined.

      I'll bet if it was a female she'd be dead,



    18. 18

      It's extreme, but that's the way Saudi Arabia is, and someone who LIVES there should know that. If you can't follow a country's rules then you don't have to live there, visit there, etc. When people are in America they're expected to follow the rules, and the same thing applies all around the world. DON'T violate their rules if you don't want the punishment!



    19. 19

      I would like to mete out 1000 lashes for many of the youtube videos I've seen (& then upload the lashings onto youtube…rate & favorite & subscribe)



    20. 20

      Yes they are cavemen over there and stuck 4000 years in the past.
      but this guy is a fucking moron for posting this. he should move to London or something if he wants to be openly gay



    21. 21

      That's too bad. He's kind of sexy.



    22. 22

      he got off way 2 easy… that ridiculous and retarded dance alone should be put him away for life



    23. 23

      Why on earth would he put this video up if he knows what the culture is like down there don't get me wrong I'm not saying he deserves what he's getting but but he had to have some prior knowledge of how things work there yet he went on and still did it…



    24. 24

      WTF.



    25. 25

      oh my god, this is just so so sad. these poor guys. I can't believe this is happening in our world… my thoughts are with them and their loved ones. People care about you… don't forget.



    26. 26

      Hmmm, if he is really a cop he should be arrested for playing around with a gun and his uniform like that. That is a violation in itself. And if he is a cop, he is sooooo obviously gay so they had to have known he was gay. Maybe it was about the uniform and gun..



    27. 27

      I just shed a tear reading that. I do not even need to watch the video to know that he could not have done anything to deserve that punishment. He can come live with me in Gay loving Canada. What a shame :(



    28. 28

      (Laury) rights are rights just because it happens to be worse some place else does not mean LGBT should be greatful that we have it better. We all have a basic human right to live free, and pursue happiness whomever that may be with. Love to this poor guy.



    29. 29

      I see no difference between this and the shit we put gays through here in the US. We're just a little more politically correct about our hate.



    30. 30

      Wish they have the same laws here…



    31. 31

      it's saudi arabia…he will probably never see daylight again…how sad.



    32. 32

      I don't believe this is his punishment. The punishment for homosexuality in Islam is death and no one is more draconian than the Saudis. In Iraq, a country our soldiers have died to liberate, 706 gays and lebsbians have been executed since 2004, by the state. The number is said to be larger because so many simply disappear. Islam is a religo-political ideology that does not recognize freedom and liberty. Wake up America. They are cunning and they are bent on world-domination. Fight for liberty and freedom.



    33. 33

      Re: Spindoc

      You are the dumb ass. I never said anything about it being ok to do what they did to that man. What I said was be glad you live in the U.S. because that would not happen here because you do have rights. But given the fact they have rights is not enough. I am not bigoted AH. I have a niece who is a lesbian and I love her just as much as all the rest of my niece's and nephews. So before you accuse me of being bigoted you better know the facts AH.



    34. 34

      ha thats how it is over there! Deal with it! The whole middle east Muslim world looks down upon homosexuality, it is a strait up crime there. He is lucky hes not sentenced to public stoning or hanging. It happens that way elsewhere. Sad but true. Just check out gayegypt.com if its still even up anymore.
      guess you will never see the pyramids homo!



    35. 35

      hmmmmmmmmmm….
      at least one year for perpetuating the stereotype that
      middle eastern and caucasian men cannot dance!

      37

      Poor guy. But its not suprising. look at the way they treat women in that country, and women are half the population, so what chance would gays have?

      Oh and screw cultural relativism, Saudi Arabia has a fucked up culture by any standards.



    38. 38

      should be arrested for that video, it was atrocious.



    39. 39

      Tea Party Patriots must be jealous! they are thinking to themselves "if only"



    40. 40

      things will change! we need to fight for equal treatment!

      41

      That part of the world and Africa are full of hate towards many innocent people… they will not get respect until they change their hateful ways.



    42. 42

      gee…let me guess….muslims.
      another reason to despise them



    43. 43

      Wow, the right wing bigots in North America are probably jealous that they can't spread their "Jesuslove" in the same way the Saudis spread their "Muhammedlove".



    44. 44

      Re: Laury – think about it? there no excuse for any of it. there is discrimination in the world because people cant accept others. there is no tolerance, no respect, no love. this planet is no playground!



    45. 45

      To all of you who said "look at the way they treat women, what would you expect". Have you ever talked to some of these women? Have you ever taken a brief second to look at the glass half full? Could it be that they are protecting these women from the "pigs", i mean men? They are covered from head to toe, because it's the husbands "trophy" to see his wife naked. unlike you sluts here in america that'll shed your clothe at the sight of a peen.



    46. 46

      I would have went with 925 lashes and 10 months in jail.



    47. 47

      holy shit 1,000 lashes ? how cruel



    48. 48

      Re: Laury – Well in lots of muslim countrties you can get arrested for being a christian and you certainly couldnt have your lipstick pic there. YOU should be glad you don't live in saudia arabia because you wouldnt have any freedom as a woman. So stfu trailer trash republican scumbag who is always filled with homophobia. Republicans are southern trailer park bigots.



    49. 49

      THANK YOU GOD FOR MAKIN ME AMERICAN!!



    50. 50

      Re: NikkiK – NIkki I wish they would have the same laws against radical christians in this county that they have in Saudia Arabia and I wish we could treat rightwing garbage women like you like they do there with no rights. So stfu and be glad you are a woman and christian in America because lots of the world would kill you.



    51. 51

      Re: iSayEffU – Why do women risk doing things in Saudia Arabia,why do christians risk Jail time for freedom.



    52. 52

      Re: notmemaw – Well if you are not a bigot you sure the fck sound like one.no we don't have to be thankful to live here because we would go to prison there. That's like saying stfu because you are a woman you should never complain here because there you would be in jail. Only a bigoted moron would speak like you ,and lot's of people who have gays born in their familes still are shitty to them or vote against them and you sound like that kind of scumbag.



    53. 53

      Make no mistake about it ,if the Repuclican scum,the tea baggers ,evil-gelicals and christo/fascists (kind of all the same group) could get away with it here they would do exactly this. And for all your republican scum ,thank your lucky stars that you live here as a Christian because you would be jailed or harassed there. Oh and for my reichwing women southern scum in here that say be glad you are gay here , I would answer be glad that you are a woman here because you would be treated like shit. So pointing out to some third world dictatorship is the republican propagand for abuse,saying to gays you don't need more rights look how bad you can have it. Funny how this garbage from the right never points to Europe and Canada and other places where gays are treated much better than in this redneck country.



    54. 54

      Re: FRIDAY1 – Move there,and stop enjoying it here or in some luxury european country,move to that hell-hole.



    55. 55

      Re: taylor_love – Honey, being gay is NOT a lifestyle. Get it in your tiny little head. It's one's nature. It's how a person is born…. You're trying hard to sound progressive, but your thinking is really archaic…….. Obviously you've never talked to a gay person in your whole life…



    56. 56

      Re: taylor_love – Well the religous wrong something that you belong to want to punish people for being born gay,so don't give me your bull, the bottom line is gays are not making laws that discriminate against reichwing christians and evil-gelicals. They are not saying you can't get married or you can't serve in the military because your allegiance is to Jesus and not Obama. They are not trying to pass laws saying it's ok to fire a rightwing republican because they are a hatemongering cult. So don't put gays on the same level as your hateful role in the game of life. You can not like gays,in fact you can keep on lying and saying gays choose to be gay and the earth is flat and there is not global warming, but you never have to like people born but your fcking assholes want to punish them through republican hate laws and that will never be ok . History and religon will judge you for the hateful scum that you are.

      that uniform didn't help his cause…



    61. 61

      more lashes deserved.. how disgusting….



    62. 62

      Well, I'd give him jail time just for having bad taste and being creepy…but the 1,000 lashes thing is going a bit too far. How long does it take to give that many lashes anyway? It's all so absurd and awful.



    63. 63

      Hey Friday,

    66. 66

      they're going to pull out 1000 eyelashes? where do they come up with these ridiculous punishment - i've never even heard of that one.



    67. 67

      bwahahahaha…..nevermind - i read it wrong. i guess it would help if i actually read it and not skim though it quickly.



    68. 68

      I guess it all just comes down to they don't want to see their country go the way of ours.



    69. 69

      I am really sorry that these poor men have to go through this



    70. 70

      Maybe he deserves it for this stupid video.



    71. 71

      This poor guy is literally and figuratively screwed however, the only thing he has in his favor is…. he is NOT a woman living in the middle east. So Perez, when you want to bitch and complain how badly gays and lesbians are treated in the U.S. and in other countries remember: WOMAN HAVE BEEN OPPRESSED SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME! Even Socrates and Aristotle were allowed their boyfriends…. EQUALITY FOR ALL!!!!

    78. 78

      thats not even that bad. shame on the saudi govt for punishing them for their sexuality. yes, its wierd that they r doing that on the job, but to put them in jail for a year????? thats absurd and they (the govt who is putting them in jail) are the true disgrace for humanity

      It's wrong to be punished for being gay but the fact that the video alone is off the gay rictor scale is a crime in and of itself.

      My eyes still burn.



    82. 82

      this guy is really stupid, he knew he was not allowed to do that… still not fair… poor guy



    83. 83

      +THAT VIDEO IS GAY AND DISGUSTING. HE DESERVES TO HAVE HIS HEAD CHOPPED OFF



    84. 84

      This man was simply expressing himself to the world….he was only being human in every aspect. I am not gay but my heart goes out to this courageous man. He knew what was at risk and still did it. We should all be so brave.

      DIE FAT HYPOCRITE



    90. 90

      Well, This is terrible!! But he got caught because he's an officer,so he represent the state, for them, he makes the state look bad !!



    91. 91

      Re: NikkiK – I hope you're joking! You suport the laws of a coutry in which women have no right to education and is the only country in the world witch doesn't allow women to drive in public roads? Have you ever heard of women's rights in Saudi Arabia, or something called honour crimes? Did you know that if you get raped in some Middle eastern countries, they at times consider it to be your own fault and that a woman is punished or even killed by male family members for having put "shame" on the family honour? The suspicion alone of a woman’s wrong-doing is often enough. And they don't usually punish these men! Yeah I bet you would want your county to have the same laws?



    92. 92

      "OCTOMOM IS THAT YOU!?"



    93. 93

      You guys are all talking like you know shit about Saudi Arabia when you obviously don't! have you ever experienced life as a Saudi? if so then maybe I might consider thinking about all the crap you're all saying. And all this crap about women having no rights, you only think that because they don't go out dressed up as sluts. I am actually a Saudi woman who has never lived in Saudi but I do go visit and yes I do feel good when I'm covered because I don't have perverts staring at my body and making me feel like an object rather than a person, and why would men want their wives to be stared at anyway? and about this guy I really don't think its cruel what they did to this guy, its not that I'm against homosexuality or anything but if he's a cop he knows whats right and whats wrong in our religion why would he post this video on youtube knowing the consequences he would face? I'm sorry but thats just really dumb and its not like he didn't know this was going to happen to him.
      you guys are hating way too much on my country and religion, and you don't even know how it actually feels like to be a part of it. Being a Saudi girl I really don't feel trapped and if you only knew more about Islam it would probably change your perspective so please unless you know more about my country and religion than I do, then you can go talk all you want about it.
