The pro- family group Akce DOST (Action ENOUGH) is organizing a march for the “Defense of the Pride of Normal People” in response to the “Prague Pride 2012” event. Michal Semín, chairman of DOST said that the counter-protest was initiated as a response to “the sharply confrontational nature” of the promotion of “intolerant homosexual ideology.” “The decision made by Prague Pride to hold their march this year at the monument of St. Wenceslas on Wenceslas Square can hardly be understood otherwise than as an attempt to induce confrontation,” Semín stated. The “Defense of the Pride of Normal People” march will take place on Saturday, August 18th at 10 a.
