Hungary: Gay Pride · Global Voices
Veronica Khokhlova

Hungarian Spectrum writes about homophobia and this year's gay pride parade in Budapest: “It is interesting that while in the past the marches went off without a hitch the situation drastically changed in 2007 and 2008. I assume that this sudden turn in public behavior is not caused by some huge transformation of attitudes toward homosexuality but rather is the result of an acceptance of violent behavior by certain groups.”
