Thousands protest same-sex rights in France

Tags: catholic france same-sex marriage same-sex adoption pope benedict protests ct numbers

  • 100,000+protest against same-sex marriage and adoption in France today, according to police figures. A couple counter-protests were stymied by police, with 200 detained in Lyon, and teargas being deployed in Toulouse. Further protests in Paris tomorrow are anticipated; Pope Benedict XVI today called for a more vocal Catholic presence on French social issues. source
