(Warsaw, Poland) - Thousands of people marched Saturday in the capital's annual gay-rights parade, days after the education minister called for a ban on the "propagation of homosexuality" in Poland's schools. About 5,000 demonstrators marched from parliament through downtown, amid a heavy police presence, led by a truck festooned with red, blue, green and purple balloons and blasting strains of loud music. Some marchers carried placards reading "Stop homophobia," while others toted rainbow flags, a symbol of the gay community. The Equality Parade comes as an increasingly vocal gay rights movement faces off against conservative leaders who have openly denounced homosexuality.
