Same-sex legislation: Two different worlds at Syntagma (video-photos)

The legislation will be voted on in a few hours - With chants, members of church organizations oppose same-sex marriage - Flags, slogans from people of the LGBTQ community

Newsroom February 15 06:52

“Two worlds” are present at the Constitution, while the debate on marriage and family equality for same-sex couples is at its peak in parliament.

On one side, protesters against the bill on same-sex couples gathered, from earlier in the day, and on the other side, shortly afterwards, those in favour of the institutionalisation of marriage demonstrated.

On the one hand, opponents of the bill, which in a few hours will be the law of the land, gathered in front of the Monument of the Unknown Soldier with censers, the Bible, declaring for the umpteenth time their refusal.

On the other hand, shortly afterwards, members of the LGBT community gathered at the Constitution, speaking of a historic day.

The murders that changed the map of the Greek Mafia: The bloody path that started from the chief godfather Stefanakos and reached up to Zambounis who was gassed with 97 bullets

Seven years ago, a leading member belonging to one of the five groups that at that time controlled the fate of the Greek Mafia, decided to "change" - Since then we count thirty-four murders involving leading members such as the "Godfather of the Godfathers", Yannis Skaftouros, Kapes and most recently Zambounis
