A Polish news magazine has announced plans to distribute stickers proclaiming an "LGBT-free zone" to its readers.
The right-wing weekly publication Gazeta Polska said it will include the stickers, which feature an image of a black cross over a Pride flag alongside the inflammatory slogan, in its next issue.
The stunt has sparked outrage from many inside the country and was criticized by the US Ambassador to Poland.
"I am disappointed and concerned that some groups use stickers to promote hatred and intolerance," Ambassador Georgette Mosbacher said on Twitter Thursday. "We respect freedom of speech, but we must stand together on the side of values such as diversity and tolerance."

ReplyDeleteSo now nobody is allowed to exercise their freedom of speech rights to say what is welcome in their community, and what is not? No different than "gun-free" zones, or "drug free" zones.
