The jerk below is a well known right wing agitator who used to make stuff up about BLM protestors to try to promote anger at them and black people. I watched the video in which he claims people of color stopped the performance yet in the video all the people are white. Hugs
A children’s drag event at the San Fernando Library featuring Pickle the drag queen was shut down at a peaceful protest on Oct. 25. Parents of color surrounded the front of the library, preventing Pickle the drag queen from coming inside to perform. The drag event was organized… https://t.co/5ZKvFcGEXE pic.twitter.com/8qLQ2UIMD1

Haters: Parents get the final say on everything their kids see!
Parents: We’d like our kids to see Drag Queen Story Hour.
Haters: YOU ARE ALL PEDOPHILES.
Haters: You don’t have rights. Only we do.
So in other words, republicans are telling other people how to raise their kids. Why don’t republicans believe in parent’s rights?
All parents have the right to raise proper little uptight Republican children.
So, essentially, the cops get to decide that the perfectly-legal event is disturbing the peace and not the idiots who are protesting the event…?
That’s clearly a slippery slope.
If this had been a BLM protest, they would have shot everyone.
The cops around where I live are known for their indifference to gay people despite this being a town heavily populated by gays. This place is sick with hypocrisy
…a group of about 70 people … wearing black-and-white shirts reading, “Leave our kids alone.”
FunFact: YOUR kids weren’t there.
The parents who brought their own kids to the event should have been the ones wearing those t-shirts.
‘Cause it’s all about the parent’s right to choose until it isn’t.
Let’s distill this.
A person in a costume reads fables and fiction to kids.
Why, that happens every fucking Sunday in buildings with stars atop them across the country.
I can’t tell a difference. 🤔🤔
Civil rights violation? Where were the police officers and what were they doing
They were there NOT arresting the bigots, because they agree with them.
Apparently they were there. And asked some to disperse. And they said no, we aren’t going to disperse. And that was that.
About six to eight protesters refused to leave the entrance even after police issued a dispersal order, according to Pickle.
How many did they arrest after the order was disobeyed? None.
Conclusion: It’s okay to ignore orders from police if you’re illegally blocking a public building’s entrance/exit, though maybe it’s a special rule that only applies to fascists protesting a person in costume reading to children.
Hate to point out the obvious, but they are not “Your Kids”
About six to eight protesters refused to leave the entrance even after police issued a dispersal order, according to Pickle.
Police: Ah, gee, citizens, won’t you pretty-please obey a direct order from us impotent policemen?
Could any of the “Haters” give a rational reason, as to how Drag Story Hour hurts kids, and does not ENTERTAIN and TEACH KIDS????
Could any of them give a reason why those kids, whose parents approved and were in attendance, should have decisions made for them by some other party who doesn’t know them?
