"Media around the world showed how an organized group of criminals physically attacked participants of a peaceful demonstration, including women, youth, and children. Many victims of this assault ended up in the hospital. The march participants were brutally beaten because they protested against hatred and violence, and their slogan was: equal rights for all, regardless of gender or sexual orientation" - writes Robert Biedroń, leader of the Spring party, in a letter to Pope Francis.
"I would like to convey to Your Holiness my deep concern over the fact that representatives of the Catholic Church in Poland are glorifying the use of violence. I believe that everyone, regardless of their faith, should unite in countering and condemning acts of violence. Therefore, I appeal to Your Holiness with a request for a clear condemnation of the above and any similar stances taken by representatives of the Catholic Church, and for a reaction that will change the currently less-than-ideal image of the Polish Church" - Biedroń adds in the letter.
