French Marriage Equality Opponent Commits Suicide at Notre Dame
Dominique Venner shot himself to death in the famed Paris cathedral today.

"Venner has been an outspoken opponent of France’s marriage equality legislation, which was signed into law by President François Hollande over the weekend. Earlier today Venner posted a screed against same-sex marriage on his website.

“His long essay was a tirade against gay marriage but also a warning that the ‘population of France and Europe’ was going to be ‘replaced’ and brought under ‘Islamist control’ and ‘sharia law,’” the Independent reports. He also left a sealed letter on the Notre Dame altar just before shooting himself, but the letter’s contents have not been revealed."

In before bigots Nocturne/GodParticle point out that a Muslim would of done it with a bomb.

I know he shared his twisted opinions with the public in a kind of loud and brash way, but considering that he committed suicide it's likely that he had some serious mental problems. It feels wrong to know about this, much less mock the poor guy :/
