Weird violations of human rights #20 right to assembly

This will be about the violation of human rights #20 “the right to assembly.” There's no doubt that with people terrorizing countries and others that are being kept as slaves that there are violations of human rights. However, around the world there are very strange and odd violations of human rights. This blog will be focusing on some of the most outrageous and ludicrous violations.



In St. Petersburg, Russia. A Russian woman by the name of Yelena Borisovna Mizulina. She decided that it was best for the country to have a ban on homosexual propaganda. If you are seen with anything rainbow or something related to homosexuality then the authorities will not hesitate to take charge. The reason this violates the right to assembly is because in Russia there are homosexuals that can't express who they are because of this law.


In North Korea. Kim Jong-un outlawed talking on the phone during the 100 day mourning period. The have this time to mourn over the death of their last leader Kim Jong-il. If anyone caught using a phone during this time is punished as a war criminal. Punishments for war criminals are very harsh and shouldn't be used on civilians. This violates the right of assembly because groups of people on their way to work during the mourning need to use their phone for business issues.
