Tradition, Family, Property (TFP)—Texas joined the March 31 protest in Houston, Texas

When members of Tradition, Family, Property (TFP)—Texas heard about a Drag Queen Story Hour open to all ages, they joined the March 31 protest in Houston, Texas. 

A Drag Queen Story Hour Is Not Innocent 

By now, everyone knows that these events are not simply innocent story times for children. The books that are read are full of pro-LGBT material and many passages are indescribably revolting and obscene. One drag queen at a Louisiana public hearing described the events as “the grooming of the next generation.”

Thus, a growing movement of parents around the country oppose both the story hours and the books that harm childhood innocence often promoted at public libraries and schools. 

The TFP-Texas volunteers were returning from a campaign against a Satanic Black Mass in Kansas and went straight to join the protest with local Texans on the streets of Houston.

An Outrageous Attempt of Confrontation 

A confrontation did not take long in coming. The peaceful rosary rally to protect children’s innocence was already under way when TFP volunteers pulled up. Prancing in front of the prayer warriors, was a man dressed in what resembled a girl’s cheerleading outfit.

 He tried to disrupt the prayers, as the TFP members poured out of the vehicles to join the twenty Houstonians at the rally. The man had come earlier to tear up signs and heckle, but ran away, only to return in his girl’s outfit. 

Adrian, the Rosary Captain, positioned the rally at a well-chosen corner about a block away from the Montrose Center where the Drag Queen event was taking place. There was plenty of evening traffic where people could see the “Honk” signs for children’s innocence. Despite the man’s outrageous antics, most cars honked in favor of the rally. 

“All of a Sudden I Heard a Commotion” 

“All of a sudden I heard a commotion,” one member holding the TFP grand standard said. “I turned around to see two men and a badly dressed woman attacking the prayer rally.” The two men were yelling and cursing, while the woman snatched a sign out of a lady’s hands and ripped it up. 

She then confronted those who positioned themselves between the ladies and the aggressors. Adrian was one of the men who went to shield the ladies with his sign. The rampaging woman managed to destroy his sign as she could not contain her hatred.

 They Nagged, Cursed and Threatened 

They harassed, cursed and threatened the crowd, but the rosary only rang out stronger than before. The calm, manly response seemed to put them off balance, so they temporarily retreated to figure out new tactics.

One of the aggressors looked up the TFP’s Houston center on his phone, displaying his “unique discovery” as a veiled threat. Another poured a foul-smelling liquid on the nearby sidewalk which stank horribly. Lastly, they tried mockery to dishearten the peaceful protesters by screaming, “Oh, did Antifa wreck your party?” 

They Could not Stop the Rally  

No matter how hard the self-proclaimed Antifa members tried, they could not stop the prayers or break the spiritual unity of the rally. 

This was a powerful, peaceful and prayerful protest, not a party, and they definitely did not wreck it. If anything, they unified the group even more, since it was obvious that the protest had unnerved the Antifa members. 

Aggressors Run When Faced by Police 

The main incident lasted about ten minutes. Suddenly, the police came in force. Four squad cars pulled up, blocking the road and many more policemen came by foot, having parked on side streets around the block. Some twenty police officers came on the scene. The cowardly aggressors quickly entered a nearby house, apparently belonging to the man dressed as a cheerleader. 

Although a complaint was filed against the aggressors for the ripped signs, the officers could not enter the house without a warrant. 

The nearly two-hour long rally ended with resounding shouts of, “Viva Cristo Rey” and “Viva Maria Santissima.” It truly was a blessed day for those who had the courage to defend childhood innocence.

The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property (TFP) mobilized against this demonic affront

On March 28, the Satanic movement made a bold move.

A group called the Satanic Grotto attempted to hold a Black Mass inside the Kansas State Capitol building. Their intention? To blaspheme the Holy Mass and the Blessed Sacrament in a symbolic state venue.

However, faithful Catholics threw a wrench into their malignant plans. Immediately, the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property (TFP) mobilized against this demonic affront.

The Power of a Petition Drive

The TFP launched four petition drives on its different sites, calling on Kansas Governor Laura Kelly to prevent the Black Mass from taking place inside the Capitol. These efforts gathered over 95,000 signatures, which were delivered to the governor’s office on March 27.

Only days after the petition drives began, Governor Kelly announced that the Satanic Grotto’s permit to hold the sacrilege inside the Capitol had been revoked. However, authorities granted them another permit to gather outside.

This response was still unacceptable. At 10:15 a.m., TFP members, supporters, and friends gathered at the south entrance of the Kansas State Capitol to oppose the Satanic Black Mass.

Face to Face with Evil

Upon arriving, the Satanists were already preparing the ground for their rituals. Counter-protesters began to chant, “Christ is King,” to which the sons of darkness responded, “Christ is dead.” They cursed and blasphemed non-stop, taking every opportunity to offend the dignity of Our Lord.

At a certain point, Satanic leader Michael Stewart held up a Host and began to blaspheme. He then threw the Host onto the ground and began stomping on it. However, one courageous man dove into the crowd and consumed the Blessed Sacrament.

Immediately afterwards, the man who had rescued Our Lord was arrested and taken away in handcuffs.

About thirty minutes later, despite being forbidden, the Satanists made their way to the Capitol entrance.

They were told that they could only enter if they agreed not to hold any religious rites. However, following in the footsteps of the Father of Lies, they immediately began to blaspheme upon arriving at the rotunda.

Another brave man attempted to remove the satanic ritual from Michael Stewart’s hands. As a result, the head Satanist punched him in the face. After this the policemen pinned him to the ground and arrested him.

A Beautiful Sight to Behold

The contrast between the ugliness of devil worship and the beauty of the Catholic Faith was striking.

TFP volunteers brought their trademark red standards, signs, banners, and a magnificent statue of Our Lady of Fatima. Four TFP members in ceremonial habit carried the statue, adding solemnity to the rosary rally.

Hundreds of local Catholics joined the rally, along with supporters from across the country. People traveled from Missouri, Texas, Florida, California, Pennsylvania, and beyond, refusing to stand idly by while such a vile attack on the Faith took place.

The rally opened with a speech from Francis Slobodnik, a Kansas resident and TFP supporter. He explained how shocked he was to find out that a Black Mass would be taking place at his state capitol and how he was inspired to organize the rosary rally.

Former U.S. Congressman Tim Huelskamp also spoke, letting everyone know why the protest was so important. He proclaimed, “Silence in the face of evil is evil!”

Following the speeches, the crowd united to pray fifteen decades of the rosary, singing Marian and patriotic hymns between decades. The stirring sound of bagpipes and drums added energy and enthusiasm to the prayers.

After the rosary, the crowd prayed the Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, asking God to protect the state of Kansas from demonic influence.

Despite attempts by the Satanists to intimidate the peaceful prayer warriors, their zeal and resolve remained undeterred.

Why Satan Lost on March 28

Some might ask how the Satanists lost, given that they still carried out their blasphemy on the Capitol steps. There are three key reasons:

Firstly, the Satanists were exposed. They had hoped to pass under the radar and carry out this blasphemy. Satan’s biggest victories come when he acts in public without opposition. As a result, devil worship becomes increasingly seen as “normal” in society.

This time around, they faced the righteous anger of thousands of God-fearing Americans and were forced to act defensively. They faced bad publicity, which exposed their blatantly anti-Catholic behavior. Instead of coming closer to being culturally acceptable, the Satanists came across a roadblock.

Secondly, the Satanists were booted out of the inside of the Capitol Building. Although they should have been expelled from the capitol grounds, having a Black Mass underneath the Capitol’s rotunda would have been much more symbolic. It would have meant complicity on the part of officials. However, as a result of the TFP’s petition drive, Governor Kelly felt enough pressure to revoke their original permit.

Furthermore, Michael Stewart and the other Satanists would not have been arrested if it was not for the protest.

Finally, now the Satanists will be forced to think twice before taking more public action. They are now aware that whenever they publicly attack God, they will have to face off with thousands of Catholics. It will become increasingly clear that America is a God-fearing country, not a demon-loving one.

Mr. Slobodnik summed up the rally perfectly:

“TFP founder Professor Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira often reminded us that the devil’s head was made to be crushed by Our Lady. That is exactly what happened today. The devil reared his ugly head in Kansas, and faithful Catholics immediately crushed it. This must happen all over America. Every time Satanism appears in public, Catholics must stand up for God’s rights.”

The battle is not over, but March 28 proved once again that when Catholics take a stand, Satan always loses.
