A woman was filmed gatecrashing a drag queen storytelling event for children, saying that it promoted promoted homosexual “perversion.”
The Cellar Door Bookstore in Riverside, California, was hosting a Halloween story time for children on Saturday (October 27) with readings by three drag queens.
But Genevieve Peters, a Los Angeles resident, was caught on video protesting against book store owner Linda Sherman-Nurick including drag queens at the event.
“She has invited the public to watch this perversion with these homosexuals,” said Peters in the video published by NBC 4 Los Angeles. “I’m sorry this is what’s happening.”
She added: “That’s what you get. This is our nation’s children, you have no right to tell us about our children.”
Peters refused to leave the shop, after being asked to do so by parents and security.
She was eventually escorted out of the venue by police.
Book store owner Sherman-Nurick told NBC that she would hold similar events in the future, adding that she hoped that “the generation that comes up will not have these kinds of fears, hatred and ugliness.”
She said that she had received phone calls from people telling her not to hold the drag queens storytelling event in the lead up to the event.
