Parents and an LGBT group protested against a drag queen hosting a drag story hour event at a library in San Fernando.
The protesters believed that drag is unsuitable for children and is an attempt to sexualize and indoctrinate them.
The drag queen, “Pickle,” was blocked from entering the library, and the protesters expressed their concerns about the safety of children.
“They were calling me a pedophile, they were calling me a pervert, they were telling me to stay away from kids,” Pickle told KGO-TV. “Just the usual slurs.” (Trending: Obama’s Ignorant Remarks On Israel)
Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath, who hosted the event, apologized for the incident.
“These disgusting tactics and efforts to incite violence prevented Pickle and library patrons from entering the building. I hope no one does to their families what they did to their neighbors today.”
Earlier today in San Fernando CA, a group of parents came together to protest Pickles, a drag queen who was scheduled to read stories to children at a local public library. The parent protest was effective, and Pickles decided to leave. See his disturbing Instagram posts below. pic.twitter.com/AHljLBR03K

Despite the presence of police, no violence or arrests occurred.
This incident highlights the power of parents to protect their children and make their voices heard.
Gays Against Groomers’ website reads, “Gays Against Groomers directly opposes the sexualization and indoctrination of children. This includes drag queen story hours, drag shows involving children, the transitioning and medicalization of minors, and gender theory being taught in the classroom.”
