Meanwhile here in New York, protests are scheduled at today’s Columbus Day Parade against the invitation of an Italian cabinet minister who once fought for Benito Mussolini. The official — Mirko Tremaglia–is one of the honored guests at today’s parade along with Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Tremaglia is a member of the right-wing National Alliance Party and is a former member of the pro-fascist Italian Social Movement. Last year he was strongly condemned by gay rights groups when he publicly said “Poor Europe, the faggots are in the majority.”
