Japan Governor Should Retract Homophobic Comments

On two occasions the governor of Tokyo, Shintaro Ishihara, criticized gays and lesbians, making them view as a deficient.

The first occasion was on December 3 when he went to Tokyo Metropolitan Ordinance Regarding the Healthy Development of Youth to discuss manga and anime where, the governor, said that it wasn't fair to the kids that see homosexuals appear to television.

The second occasion was on December 7 when he spoke to reporters about the incident and he replied that he believed that homosexuals haven't some things and which could be a genetic factor.

Consequently, on 10 December, Shintaro Ishihara had retract to indicate that Japan is not descriminate homosexuals.

I think that would happen perfectly here, because in all places there are people like this, who don't like homosexuals as if they a plague. I also think that it could happen because I think that more politics must think as Shintaro.

I think if we do something because many people still discriminate against homosexuals or people differently just because they were and of course politicians aren't exceptions. Therefore, I believe that if we are beginning to accept, then they would have a better life and not there would such cases when is clearly seen as disdain even genetically engineered.
