‘In Gay We Trust’: Women Go Topless in Front of the Pope in Gay Rights Protest

Police try to arrest Ukrainian feminist group Femen activists protesting in St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican on Sunday, Jan. 13, 2013.

Four women stripped off their tops and bared their breasts in St. Peter’s Square Sunday to protest the Vatican’s opposition to gay marriage.

The women, activists from the Ukrainian feminist group Femen, had painted “In Gay We Trust” and “Shut Up” on their bodies to make their point.

The pope, delivering his traditional prayer from his studio window overlooking the piazza, apparently wasn’t disturbed by the commotion as police hauled them away.

Protester Inna Shevchenko told the Associated Press, “Today we are here to protest against homophobia.”

You have to love the look of the woman police officer in the third photo. Her facial expression is “ewwwww I have to touch her”

Ladies at least shave your armpits. They look like they could probably knock a buzzard off a **** wagon.

Seriously, truly sad there is no respect for someone who disagrees with the homosexual agenda.

Today even in France there are suppose to demonstrate against gay marriage. Reportedly hundreds of thousands are organized for the march. The culture war continues.

  Nice to know that you are just as proud of your intolerance and ignorance as these lesbian protesters are of their breasts.
  
  Thanks for showing your true colors.

what is the deal with European women who don’t shave? Really, hairy armpits just don’t do it. No wonder the birth rate is dropping there.

Amazing how the hypocrites think that everyone should be forced to accept their views, but they don’t think the church has a right to it’s own views.

Typical liberal trash. They are “tolerant” as long as no one dares have a differing opinion than that which is approved by the left.

Is anyone stopping anyone from Adult consensual sex? So, what is it with the homosexual skin flare at St Peters Square? The only thing this could be is Media propagandizing.

God gave human beings the free will to make choices. When we try to force others to relinquish their free will and replace our own will, that’s oppression.

Homosexuals have free will to have sex any way they wish. They can believe anything they want about their actions, and they can try to persuade others about their choices.

Catholics can exercise their free will to organize a church with tenants that say “Homosexuality is a sin”. And they can try to persuade others to their side.

Therefore, in this situation, it is the homosexuals who are the oppressors, and their long term strategies are recognizable from history. It goes like this: allow me, approve me, join me.

1. Society should allow me to break social mores.
2. Society should change it’s mores to align with mine.
3. Society should join me.

We are at stage 2, and it seems that the longer it takes to accomplish one stage, the more likely the oppressor is to switch from the word “should” to the word “must”. And if you think you don’t like stage 2, just wait till stage 3.

Exposing yourself in public isn’t normal. If you want to be seen as normal, don’t do blatantly abnormal things.

The women certainly did “make a point”; the point being that they lack self-respect and common decency.

I feel sorry for the people who had to witness this sick display.

Shameful and disgusting behavior.

Gaga (I almost said ‘Lady’) does it better? Certainly she made a “fashion” statement when she appeared nude from the waist down in a black-and-white photo of herself that accompanied the release of her album “Born That Way,” so-titled to indicate her support for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender causes.

Exibitionists. Extremely depraved in the knowledge of right and wrong. The walking “dead” have no shame but their guilty conscious is loud and clear. They do not want to be judged by their lude and indecent actions and we don’t want to be subjected to judgement by granting them license to openly pervert a modest society into licensiousness and chaos. Satan is the god of this world….he roams to and fro….But not for much longer I Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.

Why do you Gays

demand “rights” and “recognition” WORLD-WIDE from Christian’s, from Jews, from Catholics because THEY’RE “intolerant, and NEVER from the worlds worst gay-bashers, the Islamists/Muslim fundamentalists?

STFU.
