It is clear that the censoring and silencing of Christian, conservative, or just common sense people is on the rise. For the actor, turned writer, Kirk Cameron this isn’t the first time he has faced backlash for his Christian views. His traditional values fly in the face of every left-leaning activist in America. Activists who work predominantly in the public sector.
Now, just two days before a planned stop at Madison Public Library in Huntsville, Alabama, Cameron, along with his publisher, Brave Books, and special guest, women’s sports advocate Riley Gaines, have been told that they aren’t welcome.

The event has been canceled due to the library system’s concerns about logistics and safety ahead of the gathering.
The Huntsville-Madison County Public Library System said in a release that it can no longer accommodate the book reading event.
The Brave Books team is living up to its name they promise to challenge this conclusion.
The library system said in a press release that “The Moms for Liberty organization had planned to feature Brave Books in a meeting room at Madison Public Library [this coming Saturday]. Due to the event’s anticipated attendance increasing beyond the Library’s capacity, the Library will be unable to host the event.”
Woke warriors, enlightened librarians, and concerned comrades everywhere stay on the lookout for this ‘Kirk Cameron’ character touring the country, reading fascist fiction books, and brainwashing thousands of families with wholesome, Judeo-Christian values.

The release continued, “Initially, the organizers of the event reported 20 attendees to library officials. On Tuesday the Library learned that event organizers are now expecting over 300 people, a number that far exceeds any meeting room capacity within the Huntsville-Madison County Library System.”
The release added, “The Library explored options to make the event logistically possible by consulting the Madison City Police, the Madison City Fire Marshal, and City officials.”

It continued with “After discussing the logistics of the event with both the Library and the event organizer, the Madison City Police Department and the Madison City Fire Marshal have recommended that the event be held at an alternate location.”
The release noted, “The City of Madison applies permitting regulations for outside events equally to all groups and organizations. While the initially planned event was suited for the Madison Library’s capacity, the scope of attendees quickly grew.”

It concluded with, “The Moms for Liberty group failed to apply for an event permit in advance, and it was determined that City resources cannot support an event of this size on such short notice.”
