Poland, color the Madonna's halo with the rainbow flag. Arrested
Elzhbieta Podlyasnaya, 51 years, known for being a regular visitor to demonstrations against the government, was arrested today for spreading a photo of the Madonna with a halo in the colors of the rainbow flag around Warsaw.
To have been retouched by Podlyasnaya, it was the icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa, one of the main Catholic shrines in Poland. The image was then posted in several public toilets and on rubbish bins.
Polish Interior Minister Joachim Brudziński, with a tweet, he explained that the woman was arrested “for having desecrated the sacred image of the Virgin Mary… No story about free speech and tolerance gives anyone the right to insult the feelings of believers”.
Podlyasnaya's house was searched and several prints of the same image were seized.
Meanwhile the woman justifies herself, claiming to have acted in protest against the current homophobic policy of the current Polish authorities. He now faces up to two years in prison.

Non 2 but twenty years should give it. Luckily there are still Catholic rulers.
