Anti Gay March in Taiwan Met With Counter Protest

Religious conservatives in Taipei City yesterday beat gay activists to the punch, leading an anti-gay march ahead of next week's scheduled gay liberation parade, local media reported. The event saw attendance by over 2,000 members of various Christian denominations including Presbyterian, Baptist, and Methodist groups, said a report by the Central News Agency (CNA). Gay rights supporters did not shy away from a counter-protest, with many of them carrying crosses, a symbol of burden, on their backs, said the report.
