The Via del Corso is twinkling with a gay rainbow of lights.
For those who are familiar, you know the Via del Corso is the big shopping district in Rome. Nearly 1 mile long.
The rainbow colored swags of lights for the Christmas holidays are spectacular to see. Of course, conservatives are upset. I guess, because how do you explain pretty lights to your children? The city planners are backpeddling in trying to make it a tribute to Nelson Mandella. I believe, you call that irony.
The lights were intended to be a symbol of support after the suicide of a gay teenager earlier in the year. City assemblywoman Inna Battaglia, who came up with the idea, is also a leader in a gay rights campaign goup in Rome. Anybody want to go to Rome?
