These parents' brilliant plan to protect their kids from fascist protestors should spread nationwide

The Proud Boys is protesting an all-ages drag show in Colorado, but adults are stepping in to protect the kids, but parents have come up with an ingenious solution to shield the children from the fascists.

Charles Rozanski owns Mile High Comics in Denver. He started a monthly drag show called Drag For All Ages that raises money for a scholarship fund.

Rozanski wrote in the store’s newsletter that the drag show was getting protested by “a very raucous mob of 18-20 homophobic protestors.” He wrote on Facebook that several of the protestors had shields that said “Proud Boys.”
