Portuguese tourist assaulted by Turkish police, jailed for 20 days for "looking gay"

that erdogan even thinks his country will become part of the eu...

He does look pretty happy.

This is what conservatives around the world want.

Well, there's another country that won't get my tourist dollars and will be talked bad about whenever anyone mentions it for the next 10 years

Apparently Turkish jurisprudence operates under the same logic as my high school did in the 90s

Sounds like another shit hole country I will avoid like the plague.

I classify Turkey with Iran. Don't go there. Unfortunately my list for no-go is growing

Every Pride Month this kinda shits happens in here.Sorry for the guy.

Another fine moment for Islam

You can watch the videos he published on instagram telling his story here.

Is that web reliable? Can people go 20 days without sleeping? Simple Google search says record is 11 days. And he worries about detainees? Not gays? And yeah, the web description is "unbiased, well researched, independent news." You know they are bad when they do those kind of claims. Just criticizing the website, not the story. Commenting because that's how I'm doing my part. ><

Well, AK Party is cancer. CHP should lead Turkey instead of corrupt Erdogan brains.

Why would anyone straight have a problem with anyone being gay? Are they all in the closet and think that what they feel is what everyone feels, and somehow the fault of gay people?

Just dont go to such a shit country.

Years ago a friend's rock band was touring Europe and they landed a show at a club in Turkey About a month before the show the owner of the bar sent an email to the booking agent that said "We don't allow fags in our bar, Show canceled" The band had a video with a drag queen in it.

MEUS IRMÃOS E IRMÃS PORTUGUESES E PORTUGUESAS!!!

ESTÁ NA ALTURA DE OUTRA CRUZADA. VAMOS COMQUISTAR AS TERRAS SANTAS E SUBMETER-LAS ÀS LEIS E CULTURAS QUE NÓS TRAZEMOS.

ÀS ARMAS PORTUGUESES, TRAGAM AS VOSSAS MELHORES PADEIRAS

Why would you even go to that shithole?

The title is misleading.

*He was detained for participating in an "eventful" Pride march.

*On the bus, Chechens said he "looked like a gay".

According to him.

EDIT: I did not claim that Turkish people are not homophobic. I did not minimize the injustice suffered by the Portuguese man. Why are you downvoting this?

I heard Turkey is a very restriced country

Wtf

Another country that should never have been allowed into the EU. Fucking dipshits went from a secular nation to a religious hellhole.

I would've guessed it was for looking hot.

I now look forward to seeing the Turkish and Portuguese Mafia settle this with a breakdancing competition over the Kabbalah hahaha

based turks. faggots and trannies should be tossed from bridges.

Like Reddit was not full of fags, now Lemmy is the same.

Before reading the headline, loocking at the tumbnail image, you & I thought ...
