Whenever I hear "I have nothing against gays... I just don't see why they need to "parade" and provoke. You don't see us parading just because we're straight!" I want to punch that person sooooo bad!

Right-wing groups say that homosexuality is contrary to Serbian religious and family values.

But throwing petrol bombs at cops is A-OK!
