This is a nationwide phenomena. Many articles have been written on it. My own small town on the edge of the Chicago suburbs has a group of zealots that protest drag shows all over the suburban area (always small towns on the edge of the burbs, never major towns). All of these arguments listed in this thread and articles about the right wing losing their shit about drag shows have been trotted out by these folks at the local city council meetings. This is not just silly, these folks are dangerous. Nobody seems to appreciate it yet. But when these protests and city council meeting nuisances started, so did vandalism of places hosting these events. Then came the bomb threats to all the local libraries which hosted drag story hour. You can probably imagine how this may escalate.
