Argentina: man attacks young lesbian couple on street

This Wednesday, in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Recoleta , a violent episode was recorded that, once again, highlights the close relationship between the hate and discrimination speeches emanating from the highest levels of the State and the actions in the daily lives of those who adhere to these speeches.

A lesbian couple, aged 26 and 24, were brutally attacked while they were walking down the street hand in hand . The attack was carried out by a man in his 30s (whose name is being withheld by the police) who was riding a bicycle and, after intercepting them on their way, attacked them. It was around 6:30 p.m., when Y. and A. were walking calmly down Ecuador Street, as they usually did, and when they reached Córdoba Avenue they came across the attacker, who intimidated them by blocking their way with his bike and then hit them .

“I was walking hand in hand with my girlfriend, since I had an appointment at the dentist and we decided to go on foot,” one of them recounted, according to Página|12 . Unexpectedly, the man approached them, crossed his bicycle and asked her: “Why do you dress like a man if you are a woman?” And “before I could react, he hit me with a punch that knocked me to the ground, leaving me unconscious . Everything went black.”
