A few hours ago, colleagues MURCIA, has known about the sudden change of opinion by the Mayor of Murcia, which was contrary not only to consensus approval, but even his presentation via urgency to the debate in full City.
"MURCIA colleague calls Murcia Mayor to reconsider his intolerant attitude, and not ally with bigots who even today refuse to open up spaces of freedom and tolerance in institutions and administrations, and thus meet with a legal commitment to ensuring the rights and freedoms of citizens, "said Johan Giron, president of COLLEAGUE-MURCIA.
"With this attitude, the Mayor of Murcia and Murcia all, is perpetuating the discrimination of some of the people and the violation of their human rights.
Actions like this do not help normalize the atavistic social discrimination against homosexuality, but tend to delve into discriminatory stereotypes and fuel the latent homophobia of people like Professor of Bioethics at the Catholic University of Murcia that we are considered ill and dangerous, " Johan has finished Pigs.
