Colors+ is an LGBT youth center that has been targeted and vandalized before, and the Drag Story Hour has a lot of connections. These idiots are trying to start a fire outside the fire station.

Outside on Saturday, Colors+ supporters outnumbered the handful of Proud Boys by a ratio of 10:1.

Not to downplay this, but it's partially because the Proud Boys turn out was pathetic. Legit just 4 or 5 from what I heard from a friend. That's all they could muster for their big Saturday morning stand against the Drag Story Hour. Just embarrassing, honestly.

Of course they were seriously outnumbered, we're pretty damn good at circling the wagons around our spaces. It was such a phenomenal waste of time for them to even try.
