Immediate Solidarity of Miriam Amato, Advisor to the Power to the People : "Unacceptable that a person is attacked and beaten because she's wearing a shirt that calls for personal freedom to choose his own life, his feelings and his sentimental ties, to be offended, pursued and beaten by those who claim the right to treat people as objects, beat them and offend them, if not to their liking. My solidarity goes to Salvatore and to all those who confront daily with a bigoted society that brings us back to the Middle Ages. The councilor of the Power to the People also misses a message to the attackers: you do not love us, for nothing, for the prejudices that you carry and the violence that perpetuates, but not for that we have just attacked, many of them. Indignation and even pain for those who still have ggi does not recognize the legitimate rights of others. "
