West Hollywood wasn't the only proud place this weekend. Gay pride fever swept across Europe, where countless queers came out to show their gay faces.

OMG! We've got the best news! Anti-gay fascism's alive and well in Rome. Super, right! It's all the rage with the ever-trendy, Mussolini-praising, Holocaust-loving teenaged hooligan masses. And, no, they weren't being ironic:

Right-wing extremists shouting pro-fascist slogans ransacked a gay cultural association in Rome.

A statement from the association, the Mario Mieli Homosexual Cultural Circle, said a large group of youths had burst into the club Thursday evening and trashed the premises. After club members intervened, the vandals ran off, shouting slogans praising Holocaust-era death camps and Benito Mussolini.

Locals blame a tense pre-election climate for the invasion. We blame bad parenting.

Roman homos claimed a slice of the historic city yesterday. Led by gay group Aricay, several hundred men and women gathered at Via San Giovani in Laterno and renamed it "Gay Street". Sodomy Street simple didn't have the same ring and now gay street will be "point of reference for the gay and lesbian community."

The move comes as activists continue to protest last week's arrest of two men kissing outside The Colosseum. The couple claims they only kissed, but Roman police insist their action went further than a simple lip lock. Hundreds of gays staged a kiss-in last week and plan to do the same this weekend.

See? Activism can be sexy…
