Argentina: President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner defends marriage equality bill

Days before the Argentinean senate votes on a historic marriage equality bill (the vote will take place on July 14, 2010), President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner voiced her strongest support yet for the bill. Kirchner, who is in a diplomatic visit to China and won't be in Argentina when the vote takes place, has said that she will not veto the bill if it arrives on her desk after the senate vote. The lower House of Deputies already approved a version of the bill.

It's a lie what you say. First "she " did not try to close any private media. If you refer to the media law, I tell you it was a comprehensive law passed by MPs and senators. And it looks you do not know the law, because it does not say it must close the private media. And in addition to newspapers made ​​no mention, is audiovisual media. Clarin has more than 70% of media in the country. Does that seem right? The law seeks to diversify media voices to be heard all.

Henk Heithuis died in 1958. For years he was tortured and sexually abused by catholic clergy. According to court records, he was finally castrated to “cure his homosexuality.” This happened under the supervision of a catholic psychiatrist and in a catholic hospital. How many boys more were castrated by the CC? It is estimated that since 1945 between 10,000 and 20,000 children have been sexually abused by catholic clergy in the Netherlands alone.
