A noted far-right French historian
shot and killed himself today in Paris--in the Cathedral of Notre Dame--next to the altar--in protest of moves in that country toward gay marriage.
Dominique Venner, 78, a former member of the nationalist terrorist
movement, OAS, placed a pistol in his mouth and shot himself dead in
front of scores of tourists inside the most visited building in France.
Mr
Venner, a presenter on a Catholic-traditionalust radio station and
controversial historian and essayist, posted an essay on his website
earlier in the day calling for "new, spectacular and symbolic actions to
shake us out of our sleep, to jolt anaesthetised minds and to reawaken
memory of our origins".
His long essay was a tirade against gay
marriage but also a warning that the "population of France and Europe"
was going to be "replaced" and brought under "Islamist control" and
"sharia law".
