“I just feel like children shouldn’t be subjected to this type of thing … our children should be able to grow up and come to these decisions on their own just like everybody else,” said protest organizer Tag, who didn’t give his last name. Tag clarified that he did not have issues with drag queens, but rather the programming itself.
The opposition was met by counter protesters as drag queen Angel Elektra read to a room full of children inside the local library.
