@starluna @doormouse They appear to be anti-trans MAGA activists from Falmouth, who gave a presentation on this bill at a community center last night. Here's a FB post (with photos) on local reaction to the event:

Text of the post if you don't want to go to FB:

Residents from Falmouth and beyond packed Gus Canty Community Center inside and out last night for a presentation on "Protecting Children from Sexually Explicit Materials in Schools and Libraries," in regard to proposed Bill 2535 (H.2042) by Dee Dee Dorrington, Sue Daniels, and Pam Vidal, who provided no introductory information about themselves other than being residents of Falmouth; I'm not sure if Pam Vidal was even present.
While a peaceful protest was underway in front of the building, the room was soon over-capacity with overflow all the way down the long hallway. So many people took time from their busy lives to be there. I had to rush home from a quick birthday mental wellness escape to Maine, and I attended with the intention of listening quietly, but as a journalist/advocate who works with children and adults who have been sexually abused, I was angered by much of the disingenuous attempts to distract from the core issue: hatred and prejudice. A quick perusal of Ms. Dorrington's public Facebook page illustrates her feelings about the Transgender community, which will be the next target in this crusade, after this very obvious attempt to criminally target our library teachers, public librarians, and anyone with the education and expertise to work with minors, including museum educators. I don’t appreciate being lied to and patronized. While the term "gaslighting" has become overused, in my experience, it's accurate to describe the true intentions of this bill and last night's unsubstantiated "presentation."

The first thing I saw when I got home was Congressman Keating's defense of Senator McBride, which made me feel better for justifiably losing my temper while voicing what many of us knew going into the event. This is about hatred and fear-based ignorance. Someone in the hallway then displayed her page to the crowd, which validated my statement.
I'll be writing much more about this event, and I was glad to see The Enterprise in attendance. It's a shame the Cape Cod Times wasn't there, unless I missed them.
It was inspiring to see so many people from different walks of life coming together, once again, including dedicated educators in Falmouth Public Schools and Cape Cod public libraries, who already work tirelessly to keep our children safe, physically and emotionally. I will continue to use my platform to support them and the LGBTQ+ community...❤️📚🏳️‍⚧️🔥🇺🇸🖊🏳️‍🌈 #powerofthepen

The censorious activists are organizing under "Protectkids25" at facebook.com/profile.php?id=61 (comes across as a pretty obvious Project2025 callback to me).

@thorncoyle

Anyone considering travelling to the US from another country should really consider if it's worth it.

If you make it through customs, there is still a chance of getting arrested by ICE, or shot and killed by gun happy #magats

America is no longer a safe tourist destination.

@Dave_Goldsmith Trump’s not a bright fellow. I believe he’s filed for bankruptcy 6 times. He played a character on a reality tv show that portrayed him as a great respected businessman. HA! The dude bankrupted his own casino!

His #MAGAts think he’s the best businessman ever! He thinks his tariffs are going to generate so much money. What an idiot. Nobody can sway his 78 IQ mind. He’s putting a $2,000 tax on all Americans so he can play the tough guy character.

I hate #Trump & all bullies.

@DemocracyMattersALot This writer has a grip on reality. Hopefully, it doesn't become necessary but it's important to show the #MAGAmoron and his #MAGAts that sane, rational #Americans are ready to defend themselves, the country and the #Constitution. Everyone should be stocking up on ways to repel the coup unfolding in front of us. Otherwise, start packing a bag for your stay in a #concentration_camp. #Biden and #MerrickGarland were the perfect doddering old fools of the past.
