Extremists attack Montenegro’s first gay pride

Several hundred extremists shouting “Kill the gays” attacked gay activists and clashed with police on Wednesday in a bid to disrupt the first ever pride event in staunchly conservative Montenegro, which is seeking to improve its human rights record as it bids to join the European Union.

Angry assailants threw rocks, bottles, glasses and various other objects—including chairs from local cafés—at several dozen flag-waving gay activists who shouted back “Kiss the gays.” A shower of stones and bottles also landed on special police securing the gathering in the coastal town of Budva. Police then intervened to push the attackers away and allow the event to continue. …

Montenegro, a country of some 600,000 people, is known for its macho male culture and respect of traditional values. Some newspapers published mock obituaries for prominent gay activists ahead of Wednesday’s rally, while cafés in Budva—the country’s key tourist resort—stopped playing music for an hour on Tuesday in protest. …

Montenegro, . . . . is known for its macho male culture

Macho, macho man! I want to be a Macho Man!

Seriously, though. America's gay activists bray on about how "homophobic" America is. If they really want to see "homophobia" -- as in, "kill all gays" -- they can go to most other countries in the world to experience it.

If the place is staunchly conservative, then the true extremists are the gay activists. But that’s the hallmark of liberalism - push an extreme agenda, and accuse any opponents of being extremists.

The freaks in the “Gay Pride” Parades are the extremists.

Bingo. Good old AP...those who would overthrow natural law, moral living, and millennia of marital tradition are the “extremists” while the buggers are the normal people. Not in my book. Never.

The culture of Montenegro has been shaped by a variety of influences throughout history. The influence of Orthodox, Slavonic, Central European, Islamic, and seafaring Adriatic cultures (notably parts of Italy, like the Republic of Venice) have been the most important in recent century...

Wikipedia

It would seem that the Culture of Montenegro contains all the elements that consider homosexuality an anathema.

That is their CULTURE.

Deal with it.

Not all countries are as acceptable to queers as the liberals in this country are.

This is what should happen at gay affairs.
I am not for injuring anyone or killing them but they need to act in a manner not to toss their sickness in the faces of others.

I cannot criticize these attacks because they are culturally based and all cultures are equal. Must not be judgmental at all. No, siree!

Dead on!

If me and and 50 friends went to the gayest district in SanFrancisco, and had a Heterosexual pride, pro-family come to Jesus rally the gays would come unglued. Imagine the hate and violence that would draw.

why cant they just be gay and mind their own business?
The whole “in your face” mentality only hurts any cause.

Te only awareness being raised is that the in your face people are A-Holes

You make an excellent point, of course, it would zoom right over a liberal's head.
