The Museum of Science & History in Memphis, Tennessee, is apologizing to guests after canceling a planned drag show Friday evening “due to the presence of armed protesters.”

The MoSH, known to many in Memphis as the Pink Palace Museum, was set to host the Memphis Proud drag show and dance party Friday. The museum has several exhibits focused on LGBTQ history this month, including an exhibit on the historic Stonewall Inn police raid and subsequent protests. The Friday drag event was billed on flyers as family-friendly.

“Did ANYONE see the Robby Starbuck posted on Gettr he taped in Chattanooga?”

Saw that this morning. I can’t believe people down there aren’t raising hell today, since the police said there was nothing they could do about it. A little kid around five years old stroking some man’s body.

I keep telling people I’m kinda ashamed sometimes for not doing something -—My father, uncles, and their friends would have shut that shit down violently with zero remorse or regard for any consequnces

His body? You’re much too polite...notice the man in the ‘Ariel’ costume (a Disney property) is black...’Ariel’ will be portrayed as ‘black’ in the upcoming live action feature from Disney. Coincidence, I’m sure.

I grew up six houses down the street from this museum and went there almost every day when there was no school. I especially liked the shrunken human head from the Papua New Guinea display.

We knew the guy who ran the place, but that was fifty years ago and I am pretty sure he died.

Took my girlfriend in high school on dates to the night show at the planetarium.

And now they are doing this. Locals are digging deeper into the story to find out if tax dollars were used to support this.

Same here. We have been cowed into submission.

When I taught we would take field trips there. The IMAX theater & planetarium we’re so much fun. They loved the old-fashioned store. Drag shows don’t belong there.

Sounds like you had some great date nights!

Armed protesters outside the Pink Palace? If one knows anything about Memphis any visit in that neighborhood by a white person would require a person to be armed to be safe.

The Friday drag event was billed on flyers as family-friendly.

Just because it isbilled as “family friendly” does not make it so. Have your drag shows at gay bars or other adult venues. They should not be permitted at publicly funded locations. Prayer isn’t allowed in publicly funded venues, so vile, child grooming events shouldn’t be either. That includes schools and libraries.

I’m waiting for Freepers to call for a statement denouncing the protesters.

Seriously.

Yeah. When Bannon ran that clip again in his 5:00 show I paid more attention. Omg. Truly disgusting. And they’re purposely targeting red states with this trash and “do it for the money”, according to the report.

And here in TN! Buckle of the Bible Belt.
