Thousands of people marched to revoke gay marriage
Quote:
Police estimated the crowd at 24,000, while organisers gave a figure of 200,000.
The demonstration was organised by ManifporTous, an organisation made up of private citizens who oppose marriage equality.
The group have been quiet for the last two years, but organised the protest to put pressure on president hopefuls just 6 months before the elections.
Protestors gathered at the western edge of Paris at the Porte de Dauphine and walked to Place du Trocadero in the centre of the capital.
Organisers claimed that people from all over the country flocked to take part in the march.
