Not every equality parade has to involve troublemakers and armed police officers. Every year, Berlin hosts CSD (Christopher Street Day). In the German capital, there is practically nothing separating onlookers from the people marching. The atmosphere is positively like a picnic; in many places, people simply relax on the grass. The police can be seen only occasionally, usually managing traffic at the intersections through which the parade passes.

So far, equality marches in Poland have proceeded relatively peacefully. Białystok is an exception to the rule.

Do you like this way of celebrating, as in Berlin? Is such a march, full of positive feelings and experiences, possible at every equality parade in our country?
