Lady Gaga: "Russian Government is Criminal"

Lady Gaga took to Twitter this Monday to address the ongoing accusations of breaking the Russian law and the controversial anti-gay laws.

“Sending bravery to LGBTs in Russia,” Gaga wrote. “The rise in government abuse is archaic. Hosing teenagers with pepper spray? Beatings? Mother Russia?” She went on: “The Russian government is criminal. Oppression will be met with revolution. Russian LGBTs you are not alone. We will fight for your freedom.”

The singer added: “Why didn’t you arrest me when you had the chance, Russia? Because you didn’t want to answer to the world?”

Russian officials are considering prosecuting Lady Gaga for entering their country in 2012 on the wrong visa. After Gaga spoke out in support of the LGBT community at her shows in Moscow and St. Petersburg, she was accused of “promoting sodomy, lesbianism, bisexuality and transgenderism among minors.”
