LGBT people in Serbia are still so scared of outing, so scared of stigmatizing, scared of further assaults and discrimination. Why? They don't have any proper support from our society. There is ZERO outed celebrities in Serbia. Zero. None. Everyone is still scared.

The fact is that LGBT people are also afraid to even talk about their experiences because police and legal services are not protective and effective as they claim to be by the Serbian Constitution. LGBT people in Serbia are constantly scared for their lives and continue to live in their symbolic prisons in fear for their safety.

The first case mentioned above (male, 26, A.S.) happened on the second day of April, in a park under Terazije, in the center of the City of Belgrade. It was crowded with people passing by. Three male attackers started kicking a young, thin, fashionably dressed man in the face. Nobody came to help the victim, or to cheer the attackers. So we can conclude that the bystanders are the greatest social evil of all. Not having the courage to attack, not having the guts to help the person in need. Burn in hell, bystanders. And then the attackers ran away.

The second attack (male, 31, G.M.) happened between 15th and 16th of April, in Makenzijeva Street, one connecting two of the most beautiful parts of Belgrade - Vračar and Old Town. It was past 3 AM, this young man was walking home in his usual path, when suddenly a few attackers started shouting "faggot" at him and then they tripped him from behind, making him fall down and lose his eye glasses. He couldn't see their faces. They started kicking him in his ribs and stomach. After they finally stopped, he tried to get up and walk back home, when they started shouting "We will kill you, you fucking faggot, if you don't disappear right now. We'll kill you". And he managed to run away.
