Residents of a small Croatian town sparked outrage on Sunday when they chose to set fire to an effigy of a gay couple holding an adopted child as onlookers cheered and danced.
The fiery display was featured at the Bakova povorka, the pinnacle of a 150-year tradition of carnival festivities in Imotski, Croatia.
In a video of the hateful incident, dozens of children can be seen watching as the adults around them applaud and play celebratory music.
