Gradiva, who has been called "the Madonna of Russia," told HuffPost Live that she didn't think Russia's law was "really about gay people, believe it or not."

Putin always finds scapegoats to take pressure away from other issues, so yeah I agree; although,  its still obviously about gay people because Russia still has a huge bias against the lgbt community.
