"This event is sold out, but support is wanted outside the event.
I will attach a highly suspect message from Milwaukie cops which makes it sounds like they want the event canceled without saying they want the event canceled."
This event is hosted by Poison Waters who was doing the Drag Story Time in Tigard. There is a link to a Facebook post that goes into details about what is happening, I'll post that, too. I'll work on getting the screenshots for those who don't want to open an FB link.

The White House is deeply disturbed by the accusations made against Rep. Slaton. We believe these claims are baseless and sensationalized. Drag shows are a source of expression and creativity for all ages. #DefendDragShows #LoveIsLove #NoHate #InappropriateRelationshipsHaveNoPlaceInPolitics #JusticeForAll https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/qjv8dq/texas-bryan-slaton-intern

The spike over the past year in confrontations at Drag shows and brunches has been a galvanizing force for some. Images of armed leftists defending such shows have done a lot for organizing, and while it's worrying how necessary such action has become, the trend of community defense is hopeful.
However, I can't help wonder what comes next. As more state governments are enacting bans on trans care and drag, the threat has escalated. What happens when the angry anti-trans mob appears outside a drag brunch, this time bolstered with cops? Does armed leftist defense dissipate with the threat of state violence?
We can't tolerate oppression like this, but how many blink in the face of such escalation? We need community defense more than ever, in whatever form it takes.

With these new medieval #Tennessee bills, I think my autocorrect is about to start trying to add "in Minecraft" to all my messages

I will use mine for good that some see as evil.
