Homophobic Catholics Clash With Femen Protesters In Paris
Ukrainian topless activists Femen, famous for baring their breasts on any occasion to draw attention to a cause, clashed with French demonstrators protesting gay marriage and adoption in Paris.
On Sunday, some 100,000 people took to the streets of Paris to speak against legislation allowing gay marriage.
The demonstration was mainly organized by Catholic groups, which fear that such legislation will destroy the family.
Femen activists appeared amidst the demonstrators wearing costumes of nuns. The activists were topless as usual, with slogans written across their chests. They were spraying demonstrators with white liquid calling it “Jesus’ semen.”
As protesters tried to push the topless feminists away scuffles erupted. Police had to use teargas to disperse the crowd.
Police and LGBT activists had to surround the Femen women to protect them from indignant demonstrators. The topless activists were later taken to a police station.
Activists also claimed that two Femen protesters were injured during the skirmish, with one losing a tooth and another allegedly having her nose broken.
The movement reacted with threats of revenge.
“Femen promises not to forget this incident and to take revenge on the organizers in the best Christian tradition: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,” they wrote on their webpage.
