Unfounded statements regarding ethnic identity
|
|
|
Interpressnews, 11 August, Alia, 12 August
While covering the incident when a police officer was wounded in Phonichala, the agency states the suspect’s ethnic identity (“Also, some of the witnesses say that the arrested person is Azeri“), which is irrelevant while reporting in a criminal incident.
|
|
|
Recommendation: Identification of ethnic or other identity of a person while reporting on crimes is acceptable only if the crime in question is directly linked to the person’s identity.Otherwise, by stating ethnicity, which is a sphere of self-identification, the media associates with crime and stigmatizes a particular group.

Zurab Tsutskiride, journalist: „Homosexuality is not a normal thing, because it is against the laws of nature, an anomaly… There exist organizations for protection of rights of people with anomalous sexual orientation, but why does not anyone protect the rights of people with anomalous state of their health? Why no one holds rallies to protest against the restrictions that exist against people with tuberculosis, typhus, cholera, etc.? But this is not surprising, since they have taken homosexuality out of the list of illnesses, but included into this list… love… Yes, yes, Love!“

The “mental occupation” policy of the USA is much more damaging for our country that the take-over of territories by Russia! Territories are lost and recovered by countries, but if national identity is lost nobody will even want to recover these territories in Georgia!..
We Georgians need to find our place in the new world – either we support traditional values that have been formed over the centuries, the main basis of which was respect of Orthodox Christianity, family, moral life, or we transfer from freedom to, forgive my language, “assdom“.

They are forcing us and telling us directly: either you do whatever we tell you, or say good bye to EU and NATO… It was just like this in the past, when large countries wanted to conquer Georgia. Then they were demanding from our kings to reject Christianity and adopt the enemy’s religion in return for them keeping the throne. In fact...today Europe lives without God and the choice of the Europeans is godlessness; The West imposes on us the unchristian way of life and we cannot allow this, otherwise the Georgian nation is doomed.“

Alexander Chachia, Globalization Problems Research Center: „The spread of the Western so called values brought moral decay and fall of traditional morals… Putin is trying to create alternative world power, which will oppose the Americans’ globalization project – the nations’ denationalization, destruction of traditional morals, religion and national identity.
Some are surprised why Americans are demanding legalization of pederast while it causes antipathy towards American among societies of various countries. Thing is, legalization of pederasty destroys the basis on which modern nations stand as cultural-historical phenomena. Pederasty destroys religion traditional morals, family values, moral values formed over the centuries, national traditions, and by this it turns people into easily controlled mob. Garibashvili was brought up in a Georgian family and for him legalization of pederast marriage means defying himself being Georgian!“

Alexander Chachia, Globalization Problems Research Center: “When we became America’s “junior partner”, birth rates fell and mortality grew disastrously; plants and factories were sold for scrap; a third of Georgians emigrated and became service personnel in other countries; half of those who remained in the country are jobless; 20% of territories are lost, the remaining lands have been sold to Indians, Chinese, Pakistanis and others, while the pederasts with English-language banners gather and demand legalization of their right to the same-sex love. Another 10 years of such “partnership” and the Georgian people as a cultural community will just cease to exist”.

Asaval-Dasavali, 3-9 August
Avtandil Ungiadze, Orthodox Parents Union: „In the past propaganda of homosexuality in America was caused by the project according to which demographic processes were to be corrected and birth rates - decreased. Homosexuality was what they needed, since this is action against nature and does not produce breeding. Pay attention, prior to legalization of same-sex marriage the homosexuals for years had been conducting extremist-racist violence against the majority, gained abolition of criminal liability and demanded not just legalization of homosexuality, buy the right to conduct its propaganda... Our TV channels are occupied by the West, NGOs’ influence is also strong, while the government is helpless..“
