Pride (In the Name of Love)

Okay, sorry about the cheesy title, but it is almost 11:00 and my brain cells are dying by the moment.

Anyway, Zagreb recently hosted its 9th annual GLBT Pride Parade. The event was not without incident, according to parade organizers,  three participants-a Bosnian citizen and two Danish citizens were attacked. In a seperate incident, two participants were attacked by 5 skinheads. Despite these incidents, the parade is also notworthy for a much more encouraging reason, President Ivo Josipovic became the first Croatian president to publicly support the pride parade.

    Tolerance is a good sign of all sorts of other things.
