“Yes, I’m a faggot. No, you’re not scaring me.”

By Hudson Brooklyn
“Yes, I’m a faggot. No, you’re not scaring me.”

The mayor of El Carpio in Córdoba, Carlos Peláez (PP), denounced homophobic graffiti on one of his city’s municipal signs. The expression “Die, faggot of the PP” appeared this Wednesday in the small municipality of Córdoba, an act of hatred that the city council did not leave unchallenged. Peláez responded on his social networks: “Yes, I’m a faggot. Yes, I’m PP. No, you don’t scare me.”.

The mayor filed an official complaint with the Guardia Civil, which has already begun examining surveillance cameras to identify those responsible for the attack. “Yesterday I was with the Guardia Civil and a procedure has already been opened to investigate the incident,” Peláez said.

The city council’s response received widespread support from neighbors, institutions and political parties. “No one has the right to tell anyone how to live their life,” said some community residents. Likewise, New Generations of the PP of Cordoba expressed their solidarity with the mayor: “We condemn this attack and send all our support to our friend Carlos.”

Peláez was also thrilled to learn that neighbors had hung a rainbow flag on the balcony of City Hall as a show of support. In addition, the municipal plenary session unanimously approved the inclusion of El Carpio in the network of proud municipalities, as a clear gesture of support for diversity and against homophobia.

This is not the first incident of this kind that Peláez has faced, but the mayor remains faithful to his message: “In the networks I was direct, yes, I am a faggot, yes, I am from the PP and no, you, Don.” That doesn’t scare me. “I will die, I will continue to be mayor of my city.”
