PARIS (AP) — Thousands of people marched Saturday in a gay pride
parade in Paris amid tight police security, three weeks after
the massacre at a Florida gay nightclub.
Some participants at the Paris parade were wearing black
armbands to pay tribute to the Orlando victims.
France itself is still under state of emergency following last
year's deadly extremist attacks.
The U.S. embassy in France was officially represented in the
parade. Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo and Culture Minister Audrey
Azoulay also joined the march, which was reduced to a short 2
kilometers (1.2 miles) in the city center to ensure better
security.
CHICKENS! BAWK! BAWK! BAWK! COWARDS!
