Fayetteville Public Library Cancels Drag Show Targeting Children

The Fayetteville Public Library’s website indicates that the library has canceled a back-to-school event slated to include drag performances directed at children.

News outlets reported last week that the August 7 event at the public library would let middle and high school students select clothing from The Transition Closet, and it would also host a “Back To School Dance Party” where students would be able to watch drag performances.

The Fayetteville Public Library also posted on social media that the event would offer “name change info” and gender support plans for students.

It’s good to see this event has been canceled.

As we have written before, LGBT activists use events like these at public libraries to foist their message on kids.

In some cases, children have been exposed to convicted sex-offenders through drag performances at public libraries.

These types of events are not appropriate for children — and certainly not in a public library.

Marijuana Cultivators in Arkansas Face Class Action RICO Lawsuit

On July 12, three Arkansas residents filed a class action complaint in federal court in Little Rock against a group of medical marijuana cultivators and a marijuana testing company.

The complaint alleges that Natural State Medicinals (NSMC-OPCO LLC), Bold Team LLC, and Osage Creek Cultivation falsely labeled the marijuana they cultivated by overstating the amount of THC in their marijuana products.

The complaint also alleges that Steep Hill — a marijuana testing company — “routinely overstates the amount of THC in its [marijuana] flower” that it tests.

Arkansas’ medical marijuana amendment requires marijuana sold in the state to be tested. The complaint alleges that the defendants conspired to falsify the marijuana lab results.

The suit was filed under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, a federal anti-racketeering law, and it requests a trial by jury in the case.

In 2018 the state’s Medical Marijuana Commission authorized Natural State Medicinals, Bold Team LLC, and Osage Creek Cultivation to grow marijuana in Arkansas.

According to reports filed with the Arkansas Ethics Commission, Bold Team LLC and Osage Creek Cultivators have donated $700,000 each toward the campaign to legalize marijuana in Arkansas. Natural State Medicinals has donated $350,000.
