According to the signs, these are a group from the WBC-style hate group "Official Street Preachers," California-based Christian extremists known to harass LGBTQ people, Muslims, women, ETC. Sadly, not the first time they've done their shtick at Comet. https://washingtonian.com/2017/01/19/anti-gay-demonstrators-are-picketing-outside-comet-ping-pong/

Surreal scene in NW DC outside of Comet Pizza - the pizza place at the center of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory. Some kind of super religious group yelling about pedophilia, and the restaurant responding by BLASTING Lady Gaga and drowning them out.

so they can pull this shit? I'm guessing this is just thrown in as a freebie, on their way to their plans to be in the front row of the inauguration, yelling at Joe that he's the anti-Christ.
Yeah...that'll happen.

And the Bitcoin servers that are funding these people are based in what country you might ask? Survey says... Russia!
They say there's no collusion? Ha! There's absolutely collusion happening and it's happening all around us!

I tend to be hypervigilant at times like this - as if there have ever been times like this.

The treaty in exchange has them protecting us from the insectoids, the true thugs in this part of the galaxy, that's blood well spent, I say
