Romania Gay

BUCHAREST, 6/3 - Police detained 50 people on Saturday when anti-gay protestors tried to break up a gay rights march in Bucharest, Romania

Some 500 gay marched through downtown Bucharest to press a call on the Romanian government to approve the legalization of same-sex marriages. But members of an anti-gay group disrupted the parade and clashed with the activists when they arrived at a square in the center of the city.

One officer was also injured when police took measures to stop the clash, said the report.

Some political parties and the Romanian Orthodox Church, to which more than 80 percent of Romania`s 22 million belong, have said they opposed any parade organized by gay activists.

However, the municipal authorities in Bucharest earlier approved Saturday`s march despite the opposition.

Romania decriminalized homosexuality in 2001, but discrimination is still prevalent in the country, and many gays do not acknowledge their sexual orientation.

OMG you should never voice an opinion that doesn't give everyone here warm and fuzzy feelings... don't you know that???

[Fuzzness 2]

no, just be prepared to get a backlash if you post ignorant, assinine comments, or comments that most people don't share

[Veiled Princess 1]

Right because if your opinion doesn't agree with everyone else's then there must be a lynching... sounds like a good plan

It was a figure of speech.
