Radical Orthodox Christians and Communists blocked the bus with
gay participants, preventing them from marching. The police did
now show up (though it was previously and repeatedly asked to be there) so that
the
participants had to stay in the bus for security reasons and finally
got back to their office. Their stuff was destroyed by the enraged crowd.
It is sad that you’ll see no crowd protesting against the poverty in
Moldova, the crimes committed by the Communist authorities,
all-over-spread trafficking in women, organs, child abuse, etc. When it
comes to inoffensive gay parade, Moldovans all of a sudden feel
“endangered” and see the gays as their main public enemy. It’s
disgusting. It reminded me of the dark middle age and Inquisition. Long ago I
came to the conclusion that logic and reasoning
have no value for certain categories of people and have no impact on
them. It’s just a matter of pathologic hatred and infantile thinking
and state of soul.
