About 100 placard-waving supporters turned up to today's rally to try to outlaw discrimination against gays.Workers and students came together to hear how they should “put pressure on politicians” to change Bermuda's “out-dated laws”.The rally, called Home Is Where The Hatred Is, was organised by 22-year-old student Krystl Assan after she was allegedly told to leave a Bermuda guesthouse and “stay with her girlfriend”.Ms Assan stood at the top of the step of City Hall and hit out at her home for having a “discriminatory attitude.”She received huge rounds of applause from the crowd throughout her speech. The crowd made the loudest noise as she said sexual orientation needed to be added to the Human Rights Act, so gays can have the same legal protection as everyone else.Ms Assan said: “It's not about me, it's not about a single issue. Everyone will be best served by amendments to the Human Rights Act. We have to put pressure on the people who make decisions for our country.”Ms Assan went on to talk about acts of discrimination and blatant homophobia that “raised questions about Bermuda as a society.”She said it “wasn't just a matter of sex” as she described homosexuals as “people who live full, complete lives who deserve to be treated like anyone else.”But Ms Assan insisted she was “not a spokesperson for the cause” as she had hastily organized the rally via Facebook in “a flash of emotion.”She discussed her own guesthouse incident at length saying it demonstrated “the messiness of discrimination where there are no clear offenders or victims.”She insisted she had been discriminated against, but publicly apologized to the guesthouse owner for throwing her into the spotlight with a “she said, she said” situation.Many of those in the crowd were holding homemade placards displaying slogans such as ‘War is hard, love is easy, what are we fighting?' and one woman had a sign stuck to her back saying ‘Gay rights are civil rights.'Selina Bean also spoke at the rally saying: “I am a Bermudian and I am gay.” Ms Bean said it “upset and bothers me” that she was not accepted for who she was in her home country.She said: “I'm not supporting this issue as a gay rights issue, it's a human rights issue. It should be a fundamental right of any Bermudian, no matter what their sexual orientation is.”Sylvia Hayward-Harris, from the Two Words and A Comma organization, then said they had been raising human rights awareness for five years through public campaigns and behind-the-scenes lobbying.
