For the second time since its installation in May, Berlin's memorial to gay victims of the Holocaust has been vandalized.

A window surrounding the memorial was smashed, probably by a stone, according to the Associated Press. The window allows visitors to look into the memorial and view a video of a same-sex couple kissing.

The memorial sits in Berlin's Tiergarten Park. In August, the memorial suffered a similar attack to the same window.

Following that attack some 100 protesters, including Berlin's openly gay mayor, Klaus Wowereit, took to the streets to speak out against intolerance and homophobia. (Advocate.com)
