Journal of Runaway1956 (2926)
Let's do something outrageous, in flyover country. Let's have a drag queen luncheon at a bar - WITH KIDS. We'll get all those drag queens, with all those kids, at the luncheon, then we'll surround the place with a bunch of armed "guards". We'll publicize this outrageous event, and see if we can goad someone into counter protesting. Just think of the body count! Just think of the headlines if we manage to kill a bunch of children at a gay event!
Well, that's exactly what gay pride and Antifa thought was a great idea. It is unclear how many children attended the event, but at least one woman is on video, proudly showing off her kid. It is also unclear whether alcohol was served at the event. Texas has liberal laws regarding minors and alcohol - but one doesn't generally invite children to a bar anywhere in this country.
Videos Show That Antifa Radicals Armed With Ar-15 Guard A ‘Kid Friendly’ Drag Show Which Featured Nudity – Texans Decided To Do Something About It
August 29, 2022 Natalie Washington 6 Comments
The streets outside a bar in a small town in Texas became the scene of a heated confrontation between people protesting a ‘family-friendly’ drag show hosted by the establishment and defenders of the event, some of whom were armed.The protesters accused the bar of “grooming children” by exposing them to sexual content, as they gathered to protest the show last Sunday. But according to reports from the scene on social media, they were outnumbered by activists from the opposite camp, who dismissed the demonstrators as ‘bigots’ and ‘transphobes’.
A “kid-friendly” drag brunch for all ages was guarded against protests by armed Antifa militants carrying AR-15s. The drag event was held at the Anderson Distillery and Grill in Roanoke, Texas.
The event called the Barrel Babes Drag Brunch was advertised as “Dancing Music and Laughs.” Journalist Taylor Hansen said that the “kid-friendly” event featured “Vulgarity, Sexualization of Minors, and Partial Nudity.”
At least some of the defenders of the show were armed, and were reportedly members of Antifa. They were presumably there to offer security for the patrons, performers, and the business.

Oh yeah. As an aside, those leftist/progressive/Democrat types who are still pushing for gun control are being left behind. Here you see Antifa armed for bear (note that I don't use the idiot term "heavily armed"). This is going to become the norm, with all the millions who have been, and still are, buying guns for the first time.

Mehhhh - Texas is a big place. The climate and the weather are different everywhere. East Texas is swamps, bayous, lakes, rivers, and forest. West Texas is desert. North Texas high plains is pretty good farm country. South Texas is also good farm country. Hill country is different than any of the rest of it. "Been to Texas" doesn't mean much, unless you say where you were in Texas.

Lots of different parts of Texas. For one example:
College Station/Bryan in the summer--the water chiller in town had broken earlier that summer and the tap water was nearly at body temperature, so no cool/cold shower possible in the motel after being out in 105F+ all day. And in the winter an ice storm with trees down, blocking roads all over. For good measure, we were a little slow to start after the light turned red at an intersection one night...good thing, a semi ran the red in the other direction at 50 or 60 mph, no sign the driver even tried to stop, would have flattened us.
Similar in other parts, just say no to Texas, that's what I say.

What's the problem? Looks like some volunteers exercising their 2A rights providing security for an establishment holding an event. I thought you'd be all for that sort of thing.
Oh, I see. It's an OUTRAGEOUS LGBT+ event, with the WRONG people carrying weapons. Silly me...
(But you gotta admit, the bigots and transphobes sure behaved themselves. Wonder how that would have gone without those guys standing guard...)
OMG... if Journalist Tayler Hansen said it (with Capital Letters!) it must be true! (Or maybe it's an overblown line of BS from an alt-right hack)
I will agree with that. I've been saying it a long time: comprehensive gun confiscation will not happen due to Democrats. Too many of them like their guns.

Oddly, Klarg, I said nothing about those people carrying weapons. My complaint was, they set up a killing field, with children in the middle of it, apparently hoping to provoke a nice confrontation. And, yes, I did mention bringing children into a bar, for their grooming experience. However acceptable you might find child grooming, more and more people are being outraged by it. It's perfectly legal to be kweer, but leave the kids out of it. Straights don't take their children to a bar to show them how to be perverted fools. Or, I've never seen it, or heard of it. Maybe you have examples to share?

Ah, "grooming". A conservative-froth-inducing-push-button word. News flash: Trans != pedo. Drag Queen != pedo. Understand? Good. LGBT+ does not have a 'P' in it.
Oh, you're worried about "killing fields" now? Wasn't such a big deal during the Kenosha fracas, as I recall. Nobody was killed in Roanoke, TX were they? If it is OK for a business owner to have guards with firearms in WI it's OK in TX.

Face it, man. You don't give one iota about the 2A. You only care about it when it involves you and the people you agree with. The "wrong" people carrying AR-15s? You and your kind flip out about how horrible it is. And I just love how you are concerned about children in the line of fire all of a sudden.

Completely WRONG. We might continue this discussion if you trash your stupid presumption. Yuo're sounding like the witless millenial progressives with that accusation. Scream "NAZI" at anyone who disagrees with you.
Face it? I've faced it. A lot of liberal minded people are getting guns, including blacks, females, gays, Asians, old, young, Hispanic, you name it. And, I'm happy to see all of them arming up. It's harder than hell to oppress an armed "victim".
Now, can you continue this disussion honestly, or are you going to continue resorting to mindless name calling and meaningless accusations of racism?

I dunno, can you? You got called out on not applying the 2A to people you don't like. You then knee-jerk respond with an ad hominem (please, show me where I called you a "nazi", or anything else for that matter). Seems like I struck a nerve, hm?
And it isn't racism that you're triggered about, it's "Antifa". You've been conditioned for "Antifa=bad" by your echo chamber, and in this particular case when they exercise the same 2A rights as the gun nuts claim to have, you start getting all critical for some reason. You can't have it both ways. Rights mean nothing if they aren't applied equally to everyone.
Look man, I agree that liberal minded people like guns too! I know quite a lot of them. I'm one of them!

Nice false equivalent scenario you have there. It's also what didn't happen at Roanoke TX.
Drag queens are simply men who dress up in women's clothing. That's it. They might be queer, or they might not. If individuals within that group are dangerous to children then that's on that person, not the entirety of drag performers. Making the assumption that all cross-dressers are "perverts" is asinine and wrong.
The only shit being given is your own. The only argument you appear to have is your hate for "queers". I get it man, I also grew up in an environment where the "queers" were a bad thing to be reviled. The difference is that I realized that it was wrong to hate on someone just for who they are.

False equivalence, you say. Meanwhile, the grooming continues.
Remember the wenches at Berkeley howling against the Marine recruiter's access to high school kids? Those women, however hateful they were, recognized that children are impressionable. Even young adults are impressionable. Young men are very impressed by other healthy young men in cool uniforms.
And, the groomers are using the same sort of tactics here, to lure children to the queer side of life.
Grooming. Don't tell me about false equivalence. You may approve of their methods, or you may disapprove of their methods, but don't lie about those methods.
