French President Tells United Nations to Decriminalize Homosexuality

In a speech to the United Nation yesterday, French President François Hollande called for the decriminalization of homosexuality around the world.

"France will continue to engage in all these struggles: for the abolition of the death penalty, for women's rights to equality and dignity, for the universal decriminalization of homosexuality, which should not be recognized as a crime but, on the contrary, recognized as a [sexual] orientation."
