Lrent Jam, founr of the support group LGBTQIA+ BE, tells Out the attack agast David is ditive of a subtext of hate and homophobia that permeat a large portn of Belgian society, and scrib a growg outrage the untry over the murr and attacks. A 2019 report om Unia showed a 38 percent rise reported attacks agast the LGBTQ+ muny Belgium over the prev five years, wh 125 cints of discrimatn and 17 acts of physil aggrsn registered wh the group 2018 blam the rise on "right-wg polics, relig backgrounds, and a lack of tn, " sayg attackers acquire their homophobia "outsi of their schools and stand strong their nvictns. Although the groups are still active and mpaigng around the world, Belgium n look back on s history wh a progrsive glimmer, as was the send untry to allow gay marriage and one of the first to legalise homosexualy.

After the age of enlightenment and the many revolutns across Europe, homosexualy beme legal some societi, like France, and this extend to Belgium as were unr French domn; which allowed same-sex relatns as early as 1795. And this sentiment is reflected Belgian society, as the untry had one of the first openly gay prime misters, El Di Rupo, as well as two openly gay misters. But this also cis wh the fact that many European untri have banned same-sex marriage, wh Slovakia enactg the law as recently as 2014 and Hungary havg repealed prevly enstated rights that allow gay marriage and protect gay upl om discrimatn.

So for gay activists, they ntue to mpaign for equal rights across Europe, but at least for the cizens of Belgium, people are ee to live and exprs themselv however they see f and live a society that judg them not on preferenc, but on the weight of their character.
