White Extremists Terrorize Akron!

Hate groups storm a suburban Akron park to disrupt draq queens.

Thanks to Fox, Libs of TikTok, Republicans and Twitter, a bunch of white extremists came to Wadsworth, Ohio and interrupted the suburban community. Rep. Emilia Sykes (D-OH) represents Akron and Rep. Shontel Brown (D-OH) represents Cleveland. 

I can only imagine how these two Black women who represent the urban Northeast Ohio felt seeing the noise in their communities.

What drove the white extremists to the Akron area?

Drag queens.

The things that keep these folks up all night..... a bunch of drag performers who read stories to children.

These folks are worked up over drag queens, transgender women amd LGBTQ activism.

Seriously, I thought America evolved! I guess not.

Republicans have spent a majority of their time legislating a women's right to choose. 

The Republicans have legislated what type of history is taught in schools. Meaning that African American, Indigenous Americans, Asian Americans and immigrants who contributed to America are not important. They want to keep white children from learning about America's ugly history of racism, sexism, slavery, colonialism and imperialism.

The Republicans have legislated an agenda that bans "woke" and rolled back regulations that lead to numerous train derailments, the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and destructive vehicle safety.

They have enough time to spend tax dollars to allow more firearms on the streets.

They cheer on adversities who want to weaken America's allies. They cheer on authoritarians like Washed Up 45, Vladimir Putin, Viktor Orban, Jair Bolsonaro, Benjamin Netanyahu and Alexander Lukashenko. 

Foreign leaders and advisors who literally want to eradicate human life.

But here we are.... having the Proud Boys, Neo Nazis and anti-LGBTQ protesters harass and threaten violence on Americans who just want to love one another without fear or prejudice.

Hundreds of protesters, including armed white supremacists, and LGBT-community supporters descended on Wadsworth's Memorial Park on Saturday as a humanist group tried to put on a drag queen storytelling event for children.

White supremacists and white nationalist groups have descended on and disrupted Drag Queen Story Hour events from Boston to Colorado. In December outside a public library where a show was canceled in the eclectic, north-central Columbus neighborhood of Clintonville, White Lives Matter Ohio and others celebrated the cancellation with neo-Nazi slogans and gestures.

Toward the end of the four-hour event, two people charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct were arrested after a series of melees involving pepper spray, the violent use of a flag pole as a weapon and a protester who, according to a witness and a video posted on social media, allegedly pulled a gun and tried to fire the weapon twice.

Wadsworth Police Chief Dan Chafin said Sunday that he's aware of the footage of the alleged handgun but couldn't comment further pending an investigation. The man wielding the metallic object, along with another who supported the event, were jailed.

With vehicles at the event bearing out-of-state license plates, according to some who attended, Chafin said police lost track of the crowd count at around 200 people. Police from Medina city and county, Brunswick, Brunswick Hills, Hinkley, Seville, Montville, the county drug task force and the Ohio State Highway Patrol assisted Wadsworth police in patrolling and securing the event. Paramedics from across the region were on hand.

Chafin said the "Rock-n-Roll Humanist Drag Queen Story Hour" event did proceed as planned and permitted by the city, but the situation remained volatile from start to finish with neo-Nazis yelling racial slurs from behind metal barricades and attendees, including parents and children, being followed by protesters into and out of the event.

Protesters vastly outnumbered supporters.

A Black reporter from the Akron Beacon Journal assigned to cover the event left, for his own safety, after being called a racial slur several times by protesters. Video of the event posted by attendees and a documentary filmmaker shows a bald, white man swinging a black flag with a white swastika. Members of the neo-Nazi's group point out the few Black people at the event.

"How does it feel being a pedophile?" one man in the white supremacist group says.

"There's a gay f****t right there," another man replies in the video, which has been viewed 1 million times on Twitter.

Protesters carried signs for "White lives matter" and "Mothers against grooming," which refers to the alleged process of building trust with children or families with the ultimate aim of child sexual abuse.
