\u201cTonight it is my turn,\u201d wrote\u00a0M\u00e9lanie. \u201cHomophobic attack after leaving a restaurant. Broken nose. Shocked. Blood everywhere. I am gay<\/a>, and it\u2019s 2018.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Ce soir c\u2019est mon tour. \u2014 Guillaume M\u00e9lanie (@Guillaumelanie) October 16, 2018<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Said\u00a0M\u00e9lanie to local news: \u201cI was leaving the restaurant with friends, we were celebrating the fact that one of our refugees had been granted residency [in France] and as we were leaving, during the time we were saying goodbye we were getting in the way on the path. And a gentleman who must have seen that we were gay<\/a>, wasn\u2019t happy about it.\u00a0He pushed one of our party to get past, he was told to go \u2018gently\u2019 and that\u2019s when he started directing crazy homophobic insults at me.\u00a0He called me a faggot (PD<\/i>\u00a0in French) and he gave me a big punch on the nose.\u201d<\/p>\n M\u00e9lanie told AFP<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cWe were somewhat obstructing the way in the street and a man<\/a> pushed us rather violently.\u00a0I said \u2018Go easy\u2019 and then another man<\/a> who was with him said \u2018You\u2019re just a dirty faggot\u2019 and \u2018You should all be burned\u2019 and punched me hard.\u201d<\/p>\n The attack follows four separate anti-gay<\/a> attacks.<\/p>\n The Local reports<\/a>: \u2018On October 6th, a homophobic assault took place in the capital\u2019s 19th arrondissement when two men<\/a> were violently attacked by two people over the fact that they were kissing, with each suffering injuries in the ribs and face. Then on October 8th, two young women<\/a> were beaten up in public for the same reason and on October 13th a man<\/a> was attacked in the 15th arrondissement for wearing make-up. In his tweet about the incident the victim of this attack said: \u201cI never thought that I would tweet something like this but it doesn\u2019t only happen to others: I was a victim of homophobic aggression last night in the 15th arrondissement of Paris because I wore make-up \u201d\u2018<\/p>\n Je pensais jamais que je ferais un tweet comme celui l\u00e0 mais \u00e7a n\u2019arrive pas qu\u2019aux autres: j\u2019ai \u00e9t\u00e9 victime d\u2019une agression homophobe hier soir dans le 15e arrondissement de Paris parce que je portais du make-up pic.twitter.com\/FKZCt3SejV<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 and I’m proud (@lostoverr) October 14, 2018<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Arnaud Gagnon, a young actor, was attacked by six people in September after hugging his boyfriend outside the theater.<\/p>\n Said Gagnon on Instagram: \u201cI knew that one day it would happen to me. Violent homophobic aggression in the street\u2026Last night, with my boyfriend, we went to see a friend in a play in the 20th arrondissement of Paris. When we went out to get a breath of air after the show we gave each other a hug. A hug. Just a hug. It was 10:00. A group of three young people about 20 meters away saw us. They stopped us. As we ignored them, they got closer. A flood of homophobic insults was coming out of their mouths. They demanded that we leave \u201ctheir neighborhood\u201d where \u201cthere is no PD here\u201d. As we refused to leave, the insults became more serious, more hateful. Then a fourth joined them. A kid who seemed 12-years-old. And he\u2019s the one who called for reinforcements. A scooter with the fifth and sixth attackers. Insults, shoving, threats. We do not give in. The scooter driver unhooks his helmet, removes it, and strikes me with it. Two blows to the head. Everything is going very fast. Spectators at the theater see the scene, run over, make them leave and shelter us. My friend was not injured, fortunately. For me a facial trauma, with bruise and edema, seven stitches and several days of ITT. We made the choice to share this picture and our story. We made the choice to file a complaint. In hope that this violence finally ceases\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Face \u00e0 la succession d’agressions LGBTphobes des derni\u00e8res semaines, nous voulons adresser un message simple aux victimes : Vous n’\u00eates pas seul\u00b7e\u00b7s, nous sommes l\u00e0, appelez-nous. \u2014 SOS homophobie (@SOShomophobie) October 17, 2018<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The post Activist Violently Assaulted in 5th Homophobic Attack in Paris in a Month<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad Gay News<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
