I know you addressed your comment to Backhoe; but if you mean, can kids witness this Event? Yes. The groups running the Event do make clear that under 18 should “not be brought” but there’s no ID checking, or anything like that; except at the alcohol vendor stalls. They have to check for ID. Or, rather, by law, they are SUPPOSED TO BE CHECKING id. But in a Sanctuary City; identities are a dime a dozen. And can be bought on the cheap.
In the middle 90s, a parent brought their daughter to me. Apparently, while she was on a sleepover at the home of a girlfriend with a lesbian mother; the friend showed this girl her mother's "erotic pictures". Gay sex, lesbian sex.
Anyway, the girl told her mom about it. The mom had "death to perverts" screaming through her head; and rather than unload it on the child, gave me a call. I made suggestions to her for how to handle the situation; but she said she was far too upset; and asked me if she and her daughter could come over for a talk with me.
I explained to the child and mother this: What happened was wrong. You have the choice to press charges, and certainly you should consider speaking to the girl's mother.
Yes, you probably were aroused; and now you are confused. Does this mean you are a lesbian or gay?
NO. You could have also been aroused by any graphic sexual literature involving any manner of "things" or combinations of people. It's a function of human biology in order to reproduce.
If you feel soiled, please know that you are NOT. So, don't wallow in it. The graphics may never leave your memory; but you can repel these, and you can most certainly go on to living a wonderfully, productive life. You are not soiled; you a wonderful child who has had something "bad" happen to you. Treat it like you would a bruised arm from being slugged. Who knows how God will use your experience; and it is up to you to decide.
Now, tell me, what are your dreams for your life? What do you wish to do with your life. Plan it, work towards your dreams, and know that bad things happen; but you are only "dirty" and/or a "victim" as long as you wish to be. What you do with your personal sex life one day, is your own business and of your own choosing. Choose well!
And know, again, we live in the Bay Area, you will be getting repeatedly pelted with sexual imagery. It doesn't mean you are any particular identity group person if you get aroused. Best thing is to realize that someone wishes you to be aroused and for their own sick purposes.
Therefore, shun it. And in the meantime, let your mother carry these mental images for you. She's older, she's stronger, you just continue being your wonderful self.

I'm sharing the above, but only because it is important for parents to understand how to explain the use of "erotica" when it is brought into their child's life, unwittingly, or on purpose. It's not about casual acceptance of pornography, either. But how to put the offense of the left and scum in it's proper place, so a child can know, they've been thefted; not that they themselves are "awful" or "twisted" and just because they found themselves "aroused".
In the Antioch (SF Bay Area), the "Challenge" program was brought into PUB ED schools (for which the Antioch School Districts Paid $4,000 dollars for a 3 day "pub ed experience").
Let me quote from the program: "If you've never had a homosexual experience, cross over the line".
Wow. I’m shocked this stuff is allowed to occur in public. Thanks to you and the rest on here that provided this info.
