Members of the New Columbia Movement frequently protest drag shows, while members of the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club show up armed to protect the performances.

A Christian nationalist group that protests drag shows in North Texas is suing another group that aims to defend the performances, after an altercation outside a Fort Worth brewery this spring.

The New Columbia Movement, a group that advocates for the U.S. to be ruled by “Christian morality,” often protests drag shows around North Texas, according to news reports. On the other side is the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club, a left-wing group that provides armed security at drag shows, wearing black masks, tactical gear and pride flags.
