WORLD'S FIRST ZOOPHILE-RIGHTS / BESTIALITY-RIGHTS DEMONSTRATION / MARCH / PROTEST GOES PEACEFULLY IN BERLIN, FEBRUARY 1, 2013!!!
6. February 2013
It happened!
On February 1, 2013 zoophiles and non-zoophile supporters of zoophile-rights, came out of the shadows and bravely demonstrated right in the heart of Berlin, Germany!
The demonstration was organized by Germany's zoophile-rights group, Zeta, and was attended by members of E.F.A. some of whom took part in a performance piece conceived by Sir Tijn Po especially for this occasion.
You can find pictures here. In case they get deleted, they are also copied below!
The reason for this demonstration was a vote taking place at the same time in Germany's Bundesrat that essentially made all cases of zoophilia criminal.
While the demonstration was not successful in stopping this vote, it did spark renewed debate about the most obvious question, namely, why should loving sexual relationships be criminalized when endless slaughter and abuse of animals if fully tolerated. Zeta is still trying to legally fight this new law and you can find more information, as well as ways to help, here.
Here is an article about the march on Web Pro News which has already gone viral.
Here is an article about the demonstration by 'The Local' which has also gone viral.
The evening before the demonstration there was a screening of COMING SOON in Berlin's premiere art-house, KINO BABYLON-MITTE. The screening was followed by a lengthy debate/discussion between the public, a representative of COMING SOON, several representatives of ZETA, as well as leading local and international journalists. Here's the The New York Times' take - the first they've ever written about COMING SOON as well as this hotly-contested and widely-reported new law.
Here is the demonstration as pictured in Germany's most widely-read paper, 'The Bild.' It features some members of Zeta, who organized the event, as well as some E.F.A. members and performers:
We will soon be able to post more pictures and videos, but for now you can visit BSF's Tumblr for more pictures and insights.
Thankfully, the demonstration was fully peaceful and under police protection - in fact, several anti-zoophile activists who came to provoke were asked to leave by the police.
The response from the international zoophile community had also been overwhelmingly positive and we believe this event has quelled a lot of fear and will soon be emulated around the world.
Here and here you can find extensive debates about it on Reddit (the second one is amazingly supportive!).
Here's an Australian academic getting in on the action.
Here's VOAZ excited about it too.
Here are some right-wing Americans getting riled up, but they are the minority.
There are endless debates going on about this online and we will try to keep bringing you the more interesting ones, so keep checking in.
Don't forget, here is a pictures of one of the first Gay-Rights marches just a few years back, and we know how quickly these things grow once the threshold has been crossed:
