Homophobia and Islamophobia

In March 2013 the small town created a large nationwide publicity, when the town's mayor, Manfred Tatzl from ÖVP told falter.at in an interview, "Wir sind hier auf dem Land, Homosexualität verurteilt ein jeder." ("We are living in a rural area, everybody here condemns homosexuality.") and added, "[es gebe] "Gott sei Dank" keine Muslime im Ort" (there were, "Thank God, [...] no muslims in town.")[2] in order to defend the town's reverend Karl Tropper, who had been preaching against homosexuality and Islam for years.[3]
