PRIVATE DRAG QUEEN SHOW
The controversial drag queen show at the Bay Breeze Cafe in downtown Fairhope went on as scheduled today; but so did a protest across the street.
Tickets were required to get in to the private event put on by the Prism United organization which promotes diversity in the city; the protesters from the new "Keep Fairhope Family Friendly" group were mostly on the public sidewalk, on the other side of Fairhope Avenue.
By our count, this is the third year the show has been held at a restaurant in downtown; but the first year for protesters.
There was no interaction between groups when we were there; heavy security was present for today's event too.

Comments
Well, it used to anyway.
Look at us, look at us!
Why are you looking at us? How dare you!
Because a growing mob of enraged people are not content to live and let live in the freest society on Earth. Instead, they demand that everyone else observe and applaud their sexuality, that parents surrender their children to them, and that the faithful forsake their religion for them. When we refuse, we are accused of being disagreeable (and bigots, Nazis, etc.). So be it.
I amongst most people have now developed an acute case of LBGTwhatever fatigue.
Why, exactly?
