A Spanish actor who has played Jesus in a city’s Easter parade for 20 years has been kicked out of the role — and says it is because he is gay.
Ramon Fossati has been a longtime fixture in the Valencia ceremony, but has been banned from participating until 2019 after wearing a one-shoulder frock and giving fake “blessings” as the risen Christ last year.

Didn’t matter if he was gay as long as he behaved himself. But gays seem to think they have a right to do anything they like—in public.
No one has such a right.
Perhaps there’s a casting call for Mohammed.

Franco knew how to deal with these things. Spain has seen better days.

They certainly are getting more and more "rights" to do so.
Another whining homosexual.

Gee I wonder if maybe this was the real reason? Why should someone whose religion you mock give you employment? Oh, that's right, because you're special, you like to have sex with feces filled orifices!
It took them 20 years to boot a sodomite from playing the role of Jesus Christ?
Billy O’Reilly knows a muslim guy that will play Jesus for you.
